Who would pay $10 for a pULSe mixtape? Nobody. I would never sell a mixtape. Those would be freebies if I decided to go down the route of making music for a career....But niggas on this very site, LetsBeef.com , have offered me money for a verse. I kid you not.

& As far as me being able to promote myself and yada yada

I have a pretty good understanding of the internet, generating traffic, SEO, etc. Shit ya'll would never understand.

Not sayin I make better music than ya'll or this that and the 3rd. But ya'll dont have the know how to do what I do. In fact ya'll would have to pay somebody to promote your shit through different avenues. Thats how life works...You pay people so that they can do things that you can't do yourself. Otherwise you would've done it yourself.

With that said. If I decided to go down that route

I could make a YouTube page and hit 1,000 subscribers within its first week, probably a few thousand views on a music video in its first week

I could make a blog on a blog site, maybe create a twitter page that'll break 5,000 followers within its first week.

The internet is really a powerful tool. This is how all these new cats are comin up...Best believe that. Everything is digital now

They want niggas that can film their own videos, make their own music, produce their own shit...They're lookin for motivated/dedicated people with a sick ass work ethic and drive to achieve what they want

I apply this reasonin to everything, not just rap. You gotta differentiate yourself, be self-made, and work like a fuckin dog so you can eat like a king.

i'll give you that, you can play dress up better than i can

but where you gunna get your beats? production? mix? master? studio equipment?

bitch im autonomous

Godbody 06-25-2012 12:58 PM

I mean you can do everything yourself. But if you dont have a machine behind you, you aint gettin anywhere

Then you'll have to resort to Lil B techniques and make music videos daily in hopes that you become relevant and remain relevant

SH1T L0RD 06-25-2012 01:04 PM

the machine? nah, the machine is how you get chained up nowadays. if by that you mean marketing, then yea, you need that

but the way i see it, marketing yourself makes you look like an asshole. if nobody is down to cosign you without you giving them money then stfu

but still, where you gunna get a good product? i can walk around with a nice suit and a big smile door to door, nobody will buy my half eaten sandwich

Godbody 06-25-2012 01:07 PM

If nobody wants to buy your sandwich you're not hustlin hard enough

I'll go door to door and sell rocks to people.

Thats how the music industry is now. You can have the worst product ever but if you have the hustle & drive to make certain power moves, your product can sell..

see Waka Flocka & Gucci Mane

SH1T L0RD 06-25-2012 04:04 PM

lemonade and hard in the paint

both of those could sell without much effort

The corporations are trying to get you down man, the only reason you aint rolling in money and poon is because you're not going to sell out to the suits in Washington. You're no puppet and you'll continue to speak the truth.
