It's only on yo'self like Ecay dropped on that New West 2! The reason anyone get overlooked is on themselves. I don't never see Skyline puttin new shit out.Your game's gotta be at an all time high out here or you fo'sho gonna get overlooked. Everytime you turn around Mitch is droppin somethin new either solo, Wrongkind or Strong Army Steady; plus is always in your face with the flyers and shit. Cricet ain't neva gotta be concerned with getting overlooked, that cat's always in the lab bangin new shit out. Bay-Loc and SDC stay in the street with tha people, always out there movin each others projects; Lil-Bay been on a gang of new shit lately. Lil C.S.'s game is notorious, ain't no one gonna overlook his shit when it drops. Irocc and them be doing they thang too. Jayo's new project's bout to drop and he's doing it big! Big June's shit is hot but ain't nobody in the East really doing nothing to put him out there for the people to hear, the best buzz he's had recent was with that Cricet beat on New West 2. Baby Skar's tha hottest cat outta tha East, but he got his major recognition with Bullet & Bay-Loc on that Dulo Gang . Then you got them other muthafucka's who be talking like "I'm a producer" or "I'm a rapper" but ain't neva produced shit. There's a million muthafucks's in every city that got studio's in the house, and make bangin ass music all day that get overlooked. A cat can make a million records, but if he never press it up and puts it out, then how's anyone gonna know bout them? You just gotta do it BIG & keep it MOVIN !!!!
Im a have to co sign on that one and it aint just skyline, or dago, california has a rep for being lazy( not all) they wanna go 0-60 in 6 months or they get a sourpuss face and wanna throw the blame on someone else for there lack of sucess
prime example mc eiht my homie worked with him numerous times, eiht done almost pissed off his carreer he bought a big house in riverside and all the toys that come with it,( most that gone) around this time he did menace to society after that he was getting offers for more movies but was declining( my guess is he thought it would always be there) then they complain that the label didnt push them like so and so.( wich is probably true I aint arguing that) but get off your lazy ass and promote your career.Spend some of your money if needed on magazines,extra flyers etc or set up a meeting to discuss your marketing plan.what is there after they are tired of you or found someone else.
Whether you produce, rap , manage or whatever you are your, your own company invest money into your company(yourself) be your own c.e.o. over look all your interests, make changes if necessary. like in any busines if you c.e.o and your paying someone to manage something you cant assume they got your best interests at heart, you may have to hire some one else more competent
In closing take charge, work hard stay focused and be persistent
