I agree with you agreeing with coop agreeing with rasan,but I really agree with
southeast619ray......rappin about killing dont make ya a gangsta,just like rappin about the club dont make you a square.,and the battleloc reps...i aint mad,but its just a lil too obvious...I dont think just one rapper is gonna make dago blow,its gonna have to be at least 3-4, I disagree with gangstas not getting deals, Glasses malone,young hoggs, just to name a few are getting deals,It takes more then good music and talent,I wish some of these people trying to get in the rap game would become managers instead,there is too much talent,not enough representation,I think diversity is great in dago as well,all spectrums of rap are present.....but you have to get the big guys attention(labels) that is if you are going that route,wich i know alot of people are,but those days of pushin hard out the trunk,are closing down,I think alot of people need to take a hard look at themselves,and ask if they got what it takes,yes there are alot of good rappers,but being good is that enough?If you in it for the money,Id recommend something else,If I didnt love the music as much as I do,Id say fuck this,headaches,dealing with egos,backstabbers,whiners,excuses.excuses.excuses.But if you have a passion for it,then do it,at what ever level you want..But You cant do it alone(I wouldnt say cant..maybe less likely?) get a manager,find a producer that might work with you,whether,its reduced rates or payment plans..If you aint willing to invest in your music,then you are already not business minded,do the research,most succesful in business,are the ones who took the risks,and let it all hang out,and when they fail..they get back up and let it all hang out without hesitation,if you have too think twice....find something else...
