stevie stone got a BIG break and was able to go on the KOD tour, without that he would have almost no fanbase at all. Hopsin has built a semi decent fanbase without even doing anything on that level (big tour, TV appearance, etc)


did stevie stone even hit the billboard 200? i believe it only takes like 2k-4k in a week to get on there now


but dont get me wrong, Stevie Stone is talented, i just dont agree that hes actually built much of a fan base
Stone's big break came when he started writing dope music. He already had a video out and was producing buzz before anybody knew about him being on the KOD Tour came to light.

And you're right about Hopsin. He definitely didn't rap in an international film called Fame at all and did it on his own.

Either way you look at it, Stone's getting better treatment to some degree, and judging solely on his personality, I'd say it's because he's a mature artist and a respectable person.

Hopsin comes off as crass and unpredictable with his emotions, which makes him a liability in the eyes of his employer.

Everyone who's saying that Stone is getting better treatment than Hopsin because of Hop's attitude doesn't know what they're talking about. Hop has been getting this treatment since Day 1 of his record deal like 5 years ago. As I recall, the first time he really spoke out against Ruthless was earlier this year when Damien Elliot wouldn't take the time to approve his Motherfucker video. So for someone who had an album shelved for 5 years, and then receiving 0 promotion for it once it finally dropped, shit I'd be pissed too. Who knows what goes on behind the scenes, but to say that Hop's mistreatment from Ruthless is due to his behavior is not a valid argument

Then maybe his dumbass shouldn't have sign with them. It was his choice, he needs to stuck it up and stop being a menstruating vagina.
Easy to say now. Hindsight is 20/20. I'm sure it looked like a no-brainer to Hop at the time. And they're going to fuck him over regardless of if he speaks out or not, so might as well get his voice heard

I understand what you're saying, but if I were to sign a contract I would go over the whole thing including promotion. Ruthless obviously will fuck him over regardless but its not a good look to other labels when he cant keep his mouth shut. Why would a label wanna sign a guy that talks shit constantly?



I'm not understanding where all this "hate" is coming from.

Did Hopsin fuck your girl or something?
Coming from the guy that bitches in every god damn thread on this forum. I'm "hating" because all dude wants to do is bitch about his label. It's simple, if you want shit done your way, dont sign with someone else.

Why is it a surprise that a rapper wants to rap about his label if he's stuck there and they're doing nothing with him? I'm sure when he was offered a deal by the label, he assumed that they were signing him because they wanted to make some moves, not bury him. You don't sign a deal as an up-and-coming new artist with the assumption that your label is going to put all their eggs in one basket and forget about you.

You're saying he should have read his contract, and you'd have looked at this and that... But would you? You're a new artist and someone is showing interest in what you're doing, why assume that they're going to sign you just so they can stick you on a shelf so you can collect dust? I know it happens, but that doesn't mean it makes any sense. With that being said, the guy is writing about what he's feeling. Since when is that something to complain about?

That's kind of my point. If I'm not busting the guys balls... I'm just trying to understand why people are so anti-Hopsin.

#1. Yes I would absolutely read the contract. I would want to know what kinda deal I was getting into. He saw an offer and ran with it but maybe they should've discussed marketing strategies?

#2. Tech's writing about what he feels on the Gates Mixed Plate but the majority hate it, there goes that theory.

You guys are all fuckin idiots!!! what the fuck is seriousley wrong with all of you?? like for real? DONT assume that stevie stone is in a better position with ruthless because i talk to stevie EVERY FUCKIN DAY! youguys dont know shit about me or stevie. Ruthless is the bad one here! Stevies success has NOTHING to do with ruthless, Stevie and tech have been friends before ruthless thats why he is involved with strange. And i could give a shit about ANY other label. Fuck if they think im a cry baby, I dont plan on going to a major after ruthless. You faggots just dont know what is going on here. Im a solo power house thats why i get so upset at ruthless. Dont act like you lil motherfuckes know how to read contracts either! Im sure you have NEVER gone to law school. If you did then u'd understand the business and would NEVER approach me like you all have just done. . I have attourneys, but if you lil wannabe rappers actually had a deal you would know that shit can still go wrong with the best contract. more than half of you would kill to be in my fucked up position. And im an "ARTIST"..Im suppost to keep it real and talk about my fuckin life on songs i create, thats what makes me ME. Thats something that you faggs no nothing about. Youd rather rap about some face paint hatchet shit. It upsets me that all of you assume im some cry baby when im trying to fight for artist like all of you and those who are scared to voice their opinion! Im here to motivate you to NOT take shit from labels, even if they threaten you. I want you to all learn from my mistake so you dont fall into the trap like i did. You guys sound like me before i got signed. FUCKIN AMATURES! I would think you all would understand my FTI attitude since you are all TEch nut lickers, but obviousley you dont pay attention to what hes even sayin. You all just shot me down as if i did something wrong to you personally, thats cruel! Im here to help YOU learn.. just remember that guys! I really mean that. Im out.

I'd say it's quite the opposite sir... The type of writing it takes to talk about how you feel when you're in a strip club or a restaurant isn't really the same as "I've been fucked over". Besides that, and I could go on about the difference between Tech's verses on OG to a record label "fuck you" track for a minute, but it's really not necessary. But either way I think people aren't huge fans of OG because of the beats, the chorus', and the content.

When I wrote the statement you quoted and put in bold, I was pretty much alluding to the fact that the reason we love Tech is because he spoke with what was on his mind. There was a time during AP when Tech was a rockstar at Satin Dolls and inspired some interesting songs and ideas.

Now the songs are about butt sweat and his fat dick.

I dunno maybe I fell off... I can understand that. But to knock another dude for making a rap song or two about his shit situation, which reaches to fans and industry kats. If you're a label that feels strongly about this guy, and actually wants to put his shit out, then you won't worry about him making a "fuck my label" track. It's a bit different from Tech's situation, but if Hopsin got to a new label where he was free to do whatever and drop albums, it wouldn't be much different from Tech doing tracks that talk shit about JCOR.

And I know you're thinking I'm coming at you personally or something... I'm not. I'm just saying that the shit I see you saying doesn't make too much sense to me, and trying to explain why.

NOTE THIS EDIT:

I think either this guy is high and saying stupid shit, or this isn't Hopsin. If this is a legit post than the guy is an asshole.

That doesn't change my opinion on the subject of what I was talking about...

Hopsin, you need to take a break from being so fucking awesome, ok?

It's time you just be normal for a minute and put all of your awesomeness and your power housedness and whatnot on the back burner because your breath and the muscles in your fingers are being wasted on deaf eyes.

Seriously, man, you've lost me this time around. I had your back not long ago, but you keep sinking lower with your attitude.

You'ren ot helping anyone by being bitchy, and you're especially not helping yourself.

I don't envy you in the least. If anything, I have empathy for you in your situation.
