not all mixtapes use old beats and the ones that do ,then fuck it if its a nice beat and whoever spits on it comes clean then its all good. But I cant stand DJ Clues annoying ass voice on every track that shit gets old quick. BUT THE BAY MADE COMPILATIONS POPULAR IN THE NINETIES AND NEW YORK PEEPED GAME AND RAN WITH THAT MIXTAPE SHIT. FUCK IT I SAY THE BAY STARTED THE REAL MIXTAPES. WE JUST CALL IT A COMPILATION

mixtapes are also used to "break" a record in, thats when the dj can do his thang and put the needed hype on an exclusive track, this is often how songs get alot more attention, cats just automatically think other peoples beats when they hear the word mixtape, and thats not the case, with that ill add this...Demolition Men nothin but slap vol 10 coming soon hosted by Shill Macc and Ap9. all original joints.

The way I look @ a mixtape is the same way I look @ a cypher or a battle..a way to prove yourself. Also I feel like albums are structured and need to be made in a certain format. With mixtapes you can be free and put maybe even some of your less creative or throw aways out to the public. Mixtapes are usually free anyways, so what are you bitchin about? Haha you can snag a free download or wait for an official album to drop. Just my two cents
But why do niccas like Messy Marv and Yukmouth put out mixtapes in record stores? They dont gotta prove shyt they already have a name.That shit is actually illegal and if they moved enough units they would have to pay for the producers/artists published material they are putting out in stores.Especially when niccas actually try 2 fool the public and put "Featuring Lil Wayne and Keyshia Cole" knowing all they did was sample the artists vocals.Fukk the mixtape either put out a album or let ppl download some original shyt for free.

Mixtapes give dudes who might not have money 4 sum QUALITY BEATS a chance 2 get heard. Honestly I think it's best when u use industry beats that haven't really broke mainstream but they're still a little familiar. Honestly i feel that if u can actually get fans to anticipate a mixtape drop cuz ur selective wit the beats u chose AND u can actually spit u'll have a better payoff when u actually drop an album...PLUS ALBUM SALES AINT SHIT NO MORE...STUDIO TIME, BEATS, PRINTING AND PRESSING, PROMOTION ALL COST MONEY!!!

i agree,i couldnt have explained it any better than that....98% of mixtapes is pure garbage and if u a up & comin rapper with a mixtape,that just gives me a reason 2 not wanna listen to your music unless u got a real album with all original beatz.
