Wow, you are only as great as your last hit in this business. Nobody cares about what you did in 97 the ? is are you hot now? I know for a fact Bizzy will do it for 1000 and Kray for 2500. No bullshit! But in this business its all in who you know too. But no disrespect Cesolito but if you came to them bright eyed like hey I got 10'gs for a verse they gon get you. But if you come to them like a fellow entertainer and not a fan or groupie and say hey I got this grand for ya, trust me...they aint eating like that to turn it down. But...dont go thru Steve Lobel cuz he's a bitch and he gon hike the price way up so he can get a nice lil cut. They are very talented but they are has beens, aint nobody checkin for them niggaz.
@Mafia Queen
You definately are telling the truth and know what you talking about miss lady.
@Everyone Else
I was just telling the price I had seen on paper. Maybe that was the price you have to pay when you go through the management company, Record label, or talent agency. I don't know what he would charge if you actually seen him face to face in the street or talked to him personally shit he may do it for free who knows.
Like I said it depends on if the artist respect and feels your work or hustle.
Its all about deals and negociations in music. If you got a mouthpiece or a plan and some real money then you can work something.
P.S if I was a multi platinum artist I'd be a damn fool to drop a verse for only $500 dollars.
Duce Out!
