1st off if u aint feelin your music then other cats wont feel it. if it means giving up a hot verse on a cd that gets exposure then thats an investment, but i say get your name out there to where people actually look for your music and want to know who you are. actually be on peoples favorite rappers cds like back in the days. most people wont even give free music a chance unless they open their minds to it, like if you had a memorable verse/song on a cd they own.
