selling out is a matter of opinion, its usually used when either A) an underground rapper gets popular or B) a rapper you used to like makes songs you don't like anymore. I mean there are those that intentionally sell out to make money like mic geronimo (although I doubt most of heard of him)

being a bad, local, underground rapper wit no chance of ever being famous does not equal not selling out. almost every1 named would sell out 2 b rich if they had a chance. being broke duznt equal keeping it real, it means u suck.

i think 40 has sum sellout songs now, but dude kept it hecka real 4 a long ass time & he duznt 4get bout his real fans & includes sum classic joints on every disc 4 cats like me who been down since day 1. his commercial success is just a brilliant move by a seasoned rap vet & he still the best rapper. no1s stayed hot & relevant 4 as long as 40. he has nuttin left 2 prove 2 me, hes the only rapper in a dead region makin moves & has been for 20 years, so haters keep bumpin yer favorite local artist & takin shots at 40 & missin out on the greatest rapper ever & only legend from yer region. dousche bags!

it's a double edge'd sword either you stay in the hood and make music for ppl locally and stay broke or you sign with a major and get your paper and make some radio friendly songs....now if i was a rapper best belive id sign a deal and make whatever the fuck kind songs they want me to so me and my family can eat and live comfortably....

who the fuck really wouldn't sign a major deal and instead chose to stay local and broke shit just dont make sense to me but as a fan sometimes i dont want some of my fav. artist to sign with majors cuz i know its gonn fuck with they music even tho i would like to see them get they money but they wont be making the same music as they would while they are underground....shit is complicated and i just kill'd my 40oz time to get some more...

I remember when he dropped that line at a concert. You couldn't hear anything he said for damn near a minute after he said it. People went fucking bananas after that line.

are you stupid? your saying souljah boi is better than atmosphere, canibus, aesop rock, immortal technique, x raided, lynch, etc.....? cause he damn sure gets payed more than all these acts, being broke = a number of possibilities. i know cats here in town that will never get payed, but theyll blow your mind if you take the time to listen to them
