Most artists, in my eyes, aren't setting themselves apart from the rest. Theres hundreds of rappers that say "look out for my (insert mixtape or album here)." Out of those, maybe half do really drop a project. Then from those, maybe 10% actually take the time to make their music look good (packaging, promo etc.)

I think if the good artists, who are actually GOOD, put a bit more effort into packaging their image, they would be more successful.

Production is also a key point that people tend to dismiss as unimportant. I personally am not rich, but I've managed to find good production just by looking and keeping an open ear.

S.D. should familiarize themselves with the barter system as well. It works.
real shit good point

i feel where all yall coming from on the invest in yo own shit but most niggas FUCKIN SUCK and they know they FUCKIN SUCK so they dont even have the heart to put anything out...people allways wanna say quality and things like thAt i know muffuckas that put out shit you cant here what they sayin but their image, their grind the way they market theirselves gives em enough fan base to put some kinda money in they pocket... and whats wrong wit the rap game today is that everybody tries to do it...there is a difference between a rapper and a lyricist...anybody can say a verse but not everybody can write a song...

I aint frm da west or nuttin but I think the reason is becuz the majority of SD music is gangbangin music and of course the streets are gon be down wit it but as itz all too real for the mainstream. dese lil niggaz today aint the same as when i was a youngin. today they jus aint the same and the mainstream wants the music to appeal to them instead of the ones with the real problems. it makes me sicc sumtimes becuz SD got too much talent as well as otha cities and there bein overlooked becuz their talkin wut they kno and real life personal issues. but the ones who lie on the songs are the ones blowin up. the mainstream wants wayne and all da atl niggaz ta start doin dat blood shyt on records even though 98% aint real bloods but niggaz like mitch, damu, big june etc. would get criticised feel me? its coo when snoop yells da crip shyt but its a crime when jayo felony or x-raided does it. but on anotha note i support da shyt outta sd music

The big mistake is not showing any support to eachother! Atl, NY, LA, TX, and pretty much everyone else is behind their entire music scene. But not us....we act like "niggas". We're so fuckin inferior of eachother in SD and so worried about not lettin the next cat help be responsible for representing SD to the rest of the world. You wanna do it first don't you reader...you dont care that he's helping bring shine to the city, do you...he's a square right....or he aint from here right? He don't do this tho? Huh? you know what I'm sayin...we need a sense of unity here to make the momentum move in a positive direction. That way whatevers in the way doesn't have a chance....(dave chappelle / rick James voice:) UNITY! Lol.
