You all need to fall back, yeah the chances of any of us making a living from rap are minimal, but who are we to tell him not to try? Fuck it, it's none of our business what he wants to do, if he doesn't try he'll never know, and neither will any of us.
BLNK you said you wanted to get into live battling, that's just a step further from the battle side of the site, so it's not THAT different from Erupt wanting to go get a deal. Take that Conceited vs Tzu Surf battle we were discussing on IM yesterday, one of the most anticipated battles of the year and Con used to be a member on LB, now he makes a living from battling and music and is recognised worldwide.
I think he should go for it, if he fails then what pleasure does that give anyone else? So people can say "I told you that you'd fail" and who really cares or wants to say that, what self satisfaction does that REALLY give? So we may as well either leave him to it and not make fun of him, or just support him. Personally I don't see any harm to anybody in wishing him luck and leaving it at that.
