^^^Real lyricists draw in no money it seems, which is pretty sad. The masses nowadays, the people helpin these no talent fucks blow up, are the ones deciding that. The majority of consumers in this genre wanna here "skeet skeet, ballin ballin, fancy cars, i hit the club" type of shit. If your character resembles this, you will get noticed. Major companies are not gonna invest in something like that, only something thats guaranteed to draw in cash. Hey, im only 22, but I say blame the kids. There will always be the ones puttin out that true form pure essence shit that started this whole thing, but soon enough, we (lyricists) will be looked upon as outcasts in "hip hop".
