difference!!!!!!!

THERES ALSO A DIFFERENCE! SOMEONE LIKE CELLSKI WHOS ESTABLISHED,A WAX,DELINQUENTS! WHAT I MEAN IS THEY ARE ESTABLISHED ARTISTS SO I DONT MIND BUYIN A MIX TAPE IN BETWEEN! BUT DONT START MAKIN THEM AND MAKIN THEM NEW ARTISTS BECAUSE UNLESS YOU TRYIN TO GET A DEAL GIVE THEM AWAY! ITS GOOD TO GET YOUR MONEY OFF OF MIX TAPES IF THEY SELL THEMSELVES IN STORES!!!!! QUICK COME UPS!!!! BUT DONT MAKE IT A CAREER!!!!!!!!!!!!

50 Cent's whole Rap Career was based on mixtapes....then he was signed. *just food for thought*


JUST CAUSE 50 CENT MADE IT BIG OF OF MIXTAPES DONT MEAN 90,000,000 RAPPERS WILL TOO.

ITS A TRIP TO ME CAUSE WHEN EMINEM TOLD PEOPLE TO BATTLED TO MAKE IT TO THE TOP, EVERY RAPPER WENT TO FREESTYLEN AND GOIN AT EACH OTHER!!!!

A BUNCH OF FUCKIN SHEEP.

BC - your missing my point, the main thing is...folks do what works for them. If it's mixtapes...then do em and do em all day, it's still work and keepin ya name on the streets. If it's albums and you got money to put them together then do them as well....my point is simple. Do what you need to do to keep your name on the street and keep a buzz going. If you ain't got the money to go buy a beat and make an original then hit them mixtapes and hit em hard till you get that money.

The 50 Cent comment was to show that someone "can" build a whole career off mixtapes and make it...which he did and so did numerous Southern Acts and East Coast Acts. It's a fact.

different folks different strokes!!!!!!!

no question theres some people who have successful mixtape careers that eventually lead to bigger and better thangs! but when recording is as easy as it is now everybody got a mix tape!!!!!!! bottomline is that it isnt yours and is just like the band that plays at garge parties every weekend but isnt makin any bread!!!!!! without real product,original,the marketability is limited and promotions and marketing is how you generate a fanbase and income! either way its all good!!!! you said it b4 dugout different folks different strokes!!!!!!!! we all have our own way and just need to support one another!!!!!!!!!

LIKE LIKE RAP MUSIC, ITS WAS GOOD WHEN IT WAS UNDERGROUND WHEN THAT SHIT TV AND RADIO EVERYBODY AND THEY BABY MOMMA TRIN TO SPIT A FLO.POINT BEIN....EVERYBODY GOT SOME KIND OF MIXTAPE OUT NOW. THE VALUE OF THE MIXTAPE THING IS VERY LOW NOW. AND IF THE RAPPER CANT AFFORD TO BUY BEATS THATS STRAIGHT UP BULLSHIT,I SEE BEATS ON THIS SITE ALL THE TIME FOR ONLY 50 DOLLARS!!! IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO PAY 50 DOLLARS FOR A BEAT YOU DONT HAVE NO LOVE FOR THE GAME AND THAT SHOWS WHERE YOUR DRIVE IS WHEN IT COME TO MAKEN YOUR OWN CD!!!


*NOTE TO RAPPERS*
