I understand that some mixtapes are good, but most out today are not...me and Slush talked about this today.
I respect what you guys are doing, but I have ZERO respect for these cats today that can't or won't get into a studio to record and release a real album so they just jack beats and rap over em in their boys living room then try and act like I'm supposed to take em serious.
There is a big difference between making a real mixtape and what people are doing today. The way I see it is rappers need to put their money where there mouths are. They can hop on some stolen beats and a bullshit mic and spit about how ballin they are and how much money they got, but they won't get into a real studio and put together a quality product. I think they are afraid that reality might set in and their dreams may get squashed when real money is invloved. That to me is what's wrong with hip hop.
At least you guys are trying to do something organized and legit with it...most cats are just giving it and this music business a bad name.

what?
deeper than that is most artist don't have alotta control over what gets put out( albums ). When you don't own your music they ( companies ) think they know what's best for an artist. Sometime they do, other times!? Lupe had some of the best mixtapes ever. Even a backing from Jay-Z who I think has a whole lotta money behind that mouth, a feature from Jill Scott (boy she cost a pretty penny) video's, tours, tours busses, and more shit that I can't think of. Still Lupe only sold less than 180,000 units! HipHop is controlled by big business who make millions of dollars. So what's wrong is artist who actually make the music, want to take less of a loss as possible? Yeah ok... who's gone buy that?????
Leaked songs and WHOLE ALBUMS can set a artist back uhh?
I was just ready to post something about the northside and saw dis bullshit!
I am not a internet gangster/or debator just holds it for the Northside of Kansas City
