SUP YA'LL? CAN YA'LL TELL ME WHY STREET LEVEL RECORDS IS IN THE ON THE RISE SECTION NOT RECORD LABELS? IF THIS HAS BEEN ASKED BEFORE MY FAULT FOR ASKING AGAIN. NOT HATING ON BOW WOW RECORDS BUT THERE UNDER RECORD LABELS AND I SEE NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SLR AND BOW WOW AS A LABEL. IF ANY1 COULD??? PASO ISNT TRYING TO START ANY FUNK OR ANYTHING, ITS JUST A THOUGHT THAT CAME ACRSS MY MIND.

its because of the lack of distribution....tho if i recall correctly, Bo Wow Records has no distribution either...? so one can only wonder what the problem is....they certainly have enough posts to ride with the "big dogs"

I think Street Level should just get promoted to the Record Labels section and that everybody should blow up all of the NW forums not just one.
Because I strongly feel that if there was just a NW forum alot of you would stop posting here and D-Sane has done a great job of keeping you here.
So instead of asking for a new forum, let's just get D-Sane & Street Level promoted. However a NW forum would be cool.

I don't have a problem with yall supporting Street Level but I do have a problem with yall constantly bringing up my company in this situation. Talk about what you know and not what you heard!
Keep my name out your mouths on this one! Supporting D-Sane has nothing to do with Bow Wow or why we are in the regular Record Label section.
And for all you cats woofin, Bow Wow has distribution now! WE currently have distribution in Australia through PlushMode. And we distribute our own music through the states. When I say we distribute, I don't mean 10 or 20 units neither! We talking bout 100's! That is why when any of you send your money to us, your CDs get to you within 2-3 days. They go out with the rest of our orders.
D-Sane is my partner and doing a hellafied job on the net and I'm not gonna sit here and entertain yall by making fucked up statements. But you really need to get a deeper insight to what we doing over here at BWR before you speak on mine.
That's why we still screaming we the #1 Label in the State. So with out tooting my own horn, stop speaking on me and mine.
That's just like saying yo homie's baby momma let me fuck so you should get to fuck too! Why you aint fucking has nothing to do with why I'm fucking, if I'm fucking, etc. So stop speaking on mine!

D-Lu, there's your answer...lol....DOG laid it down....I'm just confused on what Bow Wow has to do with the SLR forum? How about we all just post like we usually do in this forum, and make the extra effort to support our NW folks DOG and his label mates.....sound good? I thought so!

wow...untwist the panties. if you read right you would see i never talked down on your company or said it shouldnt be under the record label section. i just mentioned the fact that i didnt believe you had distibution. and by that i meant through LARGER AMERICAN companies (i.e. Bayside). thats tight you got your shit in australia, but im sayin folks from Texas cant go to thier sam goody or fye and ask em to order your CD. i know youve done a good job of saturatin the northwest area tho, and props for that. but i was just simply statin you have no nationwide distrobution yet, which WAS one of the credentials of being in the record label section. no hation, just observation and demonstration:chinese:

Again, I've HAD nationwide distribution through NAIL in Portland, OR which in turn sold CDs to Bayside, AEC, Southwest Wholesale, and others. (Check any of the last remaining Ghetto Politic posters, it says it on the bottom of them). Which means I fitted the criteria. I opted out of that contract as I began meeting folks like B-12 and others who let me know that they didn't take NAIL that serious because Urban Music wasn't their nitch in the game. They focused harder on other genres of music.
I also sell CDs in bulk beyond the NW buddy. I ship bulk packages to New Jersey (Trenton, Saddlebrook), Texas (Houston, Arlington, Dallas, El Paso, Waco) , California (San Jo, Diego, Humbolt Co.), Colorado (Fort Collins, Denver), Utah (Salt Lake City), Nevada, (Vegas, Reno) etc. Plus I ship packages to Croatia, South Africa, U.K., Japan, as well as make sell via the internet.
Like I said, don't speak on what you don't know. It's all good as far as supporting D-Sane. I'm all for it. But don't mention me like I'm some exception to the game. Whether you knew it or not, that was insulting. If you promoting D-Sane do that! Where did my name have to come in play at?
It didn't.
Oh and I'm not just saturating the NW, I'm saturating the globe. We distribute like any other company and shouldn't be disregarded because we don't have the bigger name. Learn about it.

hmmm, my bad it seems. well, im man enuff to admit ive been proved wrong. didnt know you were weavin such a complex web. good shit tho, realize i was never trying to take anything away from bow wow, it is indeed a quality label. but i was just attempting to point out that all record labels should be under the record label section, regardless of distribution status. from your posts the only info i gathered was that you saturated you material locally (i also knew of australia and california, but didnt see any mention of distribution) so you can see how i could possibly come to think that. my bad if you felt insulted bro, i wasnt trying to salt your game, because i believe you have a good business mind. keep doin the shit and provin folks wrong!

It sounds like you meant no harm. All I'm saying is if you rooting for a Street Level promotion, that's cool, BUT don't use me to express your point. It aint like you mentioned several people. You mentioned ONLY me like I was given some special break.
I haven't gotten nothing free out of this rap game. I've worked hard for everything and every bit of credit I've ever received.
I'm not trippin with you. I just think you and others should think about what you type before you type it.

#1. Every label SHOULD NOT be in the RECORD LABEL SECTION but I think Street Level SHOULD BE in the RECORD LABEL SECTION. On the Rise is a good testing point to make sure that someone won't get a forum that will not draw traffic. And peeps should be awarded on their progress.
#2. Just because you don't see something doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Example- GOD

Instead of a NW forum right now, I think Street Level should just get promoted to the Record Labels section and that everybody should blow up all of the NW forums not just one.
See how noone else is mentioned but SLR. This is what I'm stressing. That's it. Promote someone with out demoting someone else.

^^Not that it's any of my business, but I highly doubt that anyone is trying to demote anyone else from the Northwest...People, myself included, just don't type out every label when we speak on the NW....maybe 1 or 2.....if I mention one, I mention my favorite one, which most people do...but if I list 2 I list my 2 favorites....and 2 and so on....Nobody is trying to cut you down from what you have, obviously you wouldn't have the respect you do without working your ass off....props for that....but i don't think D-Lu was in any way tryina down Bow Wow or you....

^what six said. you dont gotta accept my apology home boy, but just dont get bent outta shape about it....i never demoted you, check your stripes, theyre still there. but gettin all defensive just because i was wrong about 1 thing involving your company is like gettin mad cuz your a piano player and somebody was under the impression that you had a certain type of piano, but in reality you have another. just a metaphorical view. stay up tho, and keep makin good music
