Whats with homeboy rappers that made it now a days.... when their coming up they do shit "for the music" they want all the support they can get, but as soon as they make it big time n their the shit, they charge up the ass for a 16 for somebody thats trying to come up too, who might even have more flows than the nigga thats charging.

I know times get hard, and you need to make money, I understand that. but i dont think that means to charge a "Homeboy" a G for a 16 you feel me? whats your guys opinions....
Why would anybody show "love" to somebody else when this is a business? People gotta feed their kids off of this music, and with so many people downloading CD's for free now it makes it even more necessary to charge.

If they did verse's or hook's just to show love then they would get artists who:
1. Can't rap for shit and want a dope artist to help sell
2. Aren't serious enough about their music to invest some real time & money
3. Most of them won't ever drop an album so it will be a verse or hook wasted.


I notice it's more of the broke fools who complain about this shit too.
