Does THE NW...?

The site is definitely for sale. $5000 cash for NorthWestRap.com. Hell, my shoes are for sale too, $90 each. I'll even let my windshield wipers go for $135, firm.
Now then.....
If we could have a centralized website where every sale counted as a Soundscan, then we could eliminate the need for Distro and keep prices low at the same time. I've already looked up this info and it is very cheap and very possible.

A DISTRIBUTION DEAL THRU MEDIA WEST, SELECTOHITZ, OR ANY OTHER INDY DISTRIBUTION COMPANY AINT AS HARD TO GET AS YOU THINK. EVEN CITY HALL BE GIVIN' OUT DISTRIBUTION DEALS. IT'S HAVIN' THEM PRESS OUT 4-5OOO UNITS AND NEVER GETTIN RECOUPED CUZZ CATS AINT MARKETING THEY SHIT RIGHT THATS RUINING THAT AVENUE. YOU CAN DO YOUR OWN DISTRIBUTION AND MARKETING PLAN IF YOU GOT THE MONEY. WHICH MOST PEOPLE DON'T. THE ONLY WAY I SEEN ANYONE GETTIN' ANYWERE HERE IS JUS DRIVIN UP AND DOWN THAT I-5 CORRIDOR DOING SHOWS EVERY CHANCE THEY GET, PUTTIN THEY SHIT OUT IN D,.J. POOLS AND GETTIN MIX DJS SPINNIN THEY SHIT ON COLLEGE RADIO AND KUBE I KNOW 2 D.J.'S RIGHT NOW FROM KUUBE THAT WOULD SPIN FOLKS SHIT ON THEY MIX SHOWS IF THEY WENT OUT AND GOT THE VINYL. ITS WORK AND NOT LOOKIN AT THE NEXT MAN TO SHOW YOU THE WAY. IF YOU AINT GOT THE MONEY THO FINANCE YOUR MARKETING PLAN TO PUSH YOUR ALBUM TO ME THIS IS A HOBBY FOR YOU. I HAVE TO GET MY HUSTLE ON WORK 2 GIGS AND PROMOTE SHOWS AND SHIT FOR EVERY ARTIST I WORK WITH TO GET MY SHIT OUT TO THE MASSES. I GOTTA DO SHOWS IN ARIZONA, THE BAY, NEW MEXICO, CANADA, AND RENO, K.C., AND GET OUT THERE AND LET PEOPLE SEE MY FACE KISS THE BABIES AND PET THE DOGS BE OUT IN FRONT OF EVERY LIQUOR STORE I CAN SELLIN SHIRTS, CDS, DVDS, GLASS SEX TOYS, AUTOGRAPH SHIRTS, AND PHOTOS. ALL THAT AND STILL TRY TO GET A FEW HOURS OF SLEEP IN BETWEEN TWO GIGS HUSTLIN AND TRYIN TO COME UP WITH A NEW WAY TO FLOOD MY PRODUCT TO THE MASSES. LUCKILY I AM STARTIN A NEW PROJECT AND NOT REALLY WORRIED ABOUT THE REST OF THE CDS TILL THIS ONES DROPPED. WITH THE INTERNET WE ARE REACHING OUT AND I WILL BE BRINGIN IN CATS FROM ALL OVER REAL SOON TO GET THINGS MOVIN'. I'M TRYIN TO BE A MULTIPLEX OF NIGHTLIFE AND ENTERTIANMENT. WE GOT SHOWS WE TRYIN TO GET IN ALASKA RIGHT NOW AND A BRAND NEW TOUR WE PUTTIN TOGETHER NOW. I JUS DON'T SEE A LOT OF BUSINESS MINDED CATS DOING IT. THAT AINT GONNA MAKE NUTHIN EASY ON YOU. GET A MANAGER AND HOPE YOU DONT GET FUCCED IF YOU AINT GETTIN UP ON THE KNOWLEDGE YOURSELF. GET AN AGENT. INVEST SOME MONEY IN YOUR PRODUCT.OR KEEP SELLIN OUT THE TRUNK FOR ENUF FOR GAS SMOKES AND A $20 SACC.
Aight yah i know what yall are sayin IM just wondering who I should look out for...I like all kinda rap
I guess my main question would also be is What is the NW sound all about....
EX The bay is bout the melody with some beat....florida is all about the fuckin booty base ny rap is about the lyrics ...that kinda thing feel me?
and who are the rappers that do the NW thing "whatever it is" the best?
just trying to find out what the NW sound is all about...I live here now stationed at Ft.Lewis just got here a couple months ago

@ BiggTrubb-- that there is REAL.
Its the business behind the music thats gonna take it to the next level.. you can be the hottest shit on the planet but if nobody knows but your baby momma and your big cousin... lol.. who cares?
@ Talus
Pick up Dividenz (www.streetlevelrecords.com), Unexpected Arrival (www.unexpectedarrival.com) and one of Cool Nutz's albums (www.jusfamilyrecords.com) ..

There are plenty of artist from the NW region that have a solid mic presense & have the talent & I have to agree with Bigg Trubb with what he has stated on the business aspects.
IMHO I think people need to keep an eye out for MyG.
JSK is also another artist that I know been grindin for years & just recently released his debut album Smoke Signalz which IMO is a solid release.
The list can go on with who I think is hot or not everyone has there own opinion on who they like or dislike.
I myself respect the hustle of these NW artists. Especially when they live breathe this shit we call hip hop/rap what ever you want to call it.
Enough with my babble!

MY SUCCESS IS LIVING COMFORTABLY WITH MY MUSIC SUPPORTING ITSELF AND ME HAVIN' A HAND IN EVERYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH NIGHTLIFE AND ENTERTAINMENT. I DON'T NEED BENTLEYS AND ICED OUT GRILLS TO BE HAPPY THAT MY MUSIC IS APPRECIATED AND RESPECTED. I GUESS DOING THIS SO LONG HAS TAUGHT ME TO BE HUMBLE AND ACCEPT WHAT LOVE I GET IN THIS GAME. I CAN MAKE PLENTY OF MONEY AND NEVER GET THE BIG DEAL. I CAN DO PLENTY OF SHOWS AND NEVER GET THE BIG DEAL. BUT WHERE EVER I GO, REAL RECOGNIZES REAL, I GET TREATED WELL, I HAVE A GOOD TIME, AND STILL AM DOING WHAT I LOVE AND HAVE A PASSION FOR. I'M GOOD WITH THAT...
Because I knew you all loved and missed me. But mostly, to put pressure on myself. If i come back announcing how I'm going to do this and that, then I leave myself little room to maneuver(sp?). People already know about my determination and vision for the NW; now its time to see some actions being done and some $$$ being spent.
I wish everybody the best. But get ready for some serious shit people in 2006. All the bricks are in place, and its time to put up or shut up.
The proof is in the pudding. Don't just talk the talk, walk the walk.
We goin hard in the paint.
Get on the train before it leaves the station.
