how can you blame the mixtapes? the problem is the lack of buzz. no one fucking cares. thats the problem.not the mixtape.
papoose murda mook dipset g-unit every nigga from houston, lil weezy..
they know the deal.
cali niggas bank too much on mixtapes like they are LP's.. puttin too much money and energy into em..
mixtapes are disposable.
like flyers. like stickers.
everyone should make as many as possible.. they cost like .38 a piece to make. its worth the hassle and little is needed to have a hot mixtape for a couple weeks. some live longer than others. cali is just late in the game. you kids are so used to payin for overpriced rehashed compilations and what not niggas are numb to purchasing anything..
outta towners LOVE mixtapes tho and SD is outta towner paradise.
u can still sell a gang of shit here..
i love the fact that fambam got raided. fuck the bootleggers keep it street.
but honestly niggas didnt really respect mixtapes til 50 blew up. even while west coast was dominatin underground hip hop for years in a row.
