MCKadafi, don't attack experience. Soak it up. We're here looking for talent to sub-contract our rap covers as we re-enter the Hip-Hop market.

In the game over 13 years, amazing but true.

You tell me how we've stayed in business?

Then tell me how a checkmark identifies "Excellence in Sports" (Nike)

And how a clown can sell 10 Billion nasty-ass hamburgers? (Macdonald's)

And how a free online video service sold for $1.6 Billion? (Youtube)

And how the biggest corporation on earth doesn't make any products? (Walmart)

Successful businesses have solid structures and effective marketing plans.

We realize that our clients are in the business of sound, not art.

People in the business of sound you should focus on selling excellent sound.

Why does a blind man purchase music?


My fellow artists:

Wack music sells less units,
resulting in less eyeballs seeing your artwork,
resulting in less revenues for your company.
No matter how "hot" the design.

Many people with skills get punked everyday.

2nd

If graphics don't sell then why people with skillz charge so much?
I know if I see an album with wack graphics I am not even gonna give it a listen,
cheap graphics = cheap production sometimes.... its better to have no graphics than garbage that will turn people off.
All people with skillz don't charge a lot. Many people with skills get punked everyday. People pay you what you think you're worth. That's real game.

Travlyrics charges a premium price because we value time. And we deliver our claims. And we service busy people who play by the same rules.

You guys are hella passionate about your talents. I'm just as passionate, but I've seen this movie several times.

Again don't attack experience. Check out our other services.

Our goal in business is assist our partners and clients with properly positioning themselves in business.

You only need 2 or 3 big accounts in order to live well.

C'mon cuzz!...You're putting too much on it.

the katora is the only one id even look at in the store and take seriously...
C'mon cuzz! Be seriuos! You're putting too much on it.

In 2007, you are not still buying music at a record store based on cover art without ever hearing a single track.

If you do, I bow at your feet for you are the king of stick-to-it-ness.

You must be older than me.

Fine art at Costco, yes. But music HELL NOLL.

Again, you're putting too much on it.

You speaking some real shit on some points specially about the part that good artists getting fucked over all the time. Happend to me a lot too in the begining, but you live and you learn. I still believe artwork and photography (for magazines) play a big role for flyers, covers and everything. Never heard of a artist but if the cover look extra cool you take it in your hand. Its all about the style and swagger you put in your graphics. I havent been in the game as long as you but I guess I been around the right people and big major people that shared there experiance with me.

Kavie, i'm feelin it bra........i mean it coulda been alot better, but at the end of the day if thats wat ur client wants, then thats all that matters, feel me.

And as far as people buyin albums becuz of artwork or not, it goes both ways. i mean if ur a new artist then it helps with ur marketing and u'd wanna have as dope an album cover as possible. But if ur a more established artist, then its different becuz u already got a fan base lookin to cop watever ur name is on.

The CEOs of the Dollar Store and GUCCI eat at the same Table

Whats wit the elite comment? Nobody on here is Picasso or Vincent van Gogh; certainly not me. At what point do we stop making the same mistakes in business?

You call it Weak. We call it appropriate. Either way, 100% of our clients are satisfied and continue to refer business.

Discuss this thread with your mentor or business coach. If you don't have one, you should invest. Even Michael Jordan needed a coach.

Everyone, understand that Business is a balanced formula:
CEO+CFO+VP of Sales & Marketing+Qualified Clients=Success.

Even if you're a pioneer, the formula stays the same.

The CEOs of the Dollar Store and GUCCI eat at the same Table and they don't discuss what is dope or weak. They discuss business, stock prices, making money, and saving money. Clearly, I'm in the wrong place.

Our designs will remain "appropriate" for another 150 years.

I'm done with the pissing contest. Now, switching back to rapper mode.

I always wondered who did wack ass graphics like this, and I guess I finally found out...With all the competition out here, I refuse to believe that someone with graphics this amateur is actually eatin solely off graphics well enough not to still be livin with their momma...Im not gonna ask for some silly way of proving you really do have the type of money you claim to have.....but c'mon on man, were all artist here....and 13 years man!? You not doin betta than that? Ive been using photoshop for not even an entire year yet and Im definitely light years ahead of you....If you gettin money like that man, please tell me where you're located so I can come down there, undercut you, and steal ALL your customers.....The only way anyone would buy some work from you and feel satisfied about it is if A. you are really really cheap or B. there is no competition in the market and you are running a monopoly allowing you to keep putting out shitty graphics....Im gonna go with A. Cause I dont see it not being ANYONE besides yourself graphic work. Im tellin you, all that stuff you posted has to be stuff you did as mock ups cause If I was a professional trying to get work done, your website alone would turn me off

And please dont try to respond to me with some pointless ass business lesson....Thats what I'm in college for and talk to my professors about

A great mind once said:

"I'll Never Stop...I'm still here and you muthafuckas can't fade me...I do this for the money fuck doing it for the sport...You can try to stop me but you're wasting your time...No apologies...I aint lost my cutting edge if you bastards wanna ask...You thought I fell off but I'm still rippin and rollin...Until I get mines I'll keep pusin hard...same rules and regulations when I get to the top"

Trajik1, thats real game. No joke.
