I don't give a fuck, I'll charge homie or not. It's a business. If I'm not charging you, you better come at me with some groceries and put a roof over my shoulder.

Don't come at me with this homie love shit when most of you don't show it. You could be a homie but that doesn't make you my homie when a lot of people are set-trippin' ass motha' fucka's.

Here's a question for the ones that don't like getting charged. If I openned up a business, a store let's say, would you come in and work for me for free? No? Then why the hell would I work for your business for free? You're out there wanting to sell cd's, that's a business.

But in the end, let's keep it real. Some fools don't like us, we don't like them, that's cool. Carry on. We don't sit here worrying about other "homies" and they don't sit there worrying about it. That's okay. Nothing wrong with that.

If we worked with someone in the past, it's 'cause it's all love. And there's still people that don't get charged.

Fuck it if anyone don't like how it is. It is how it is. This shit takes hella' work. If it doesn't take you hella' work to make music happen, you're probably not doing it right. It can take hours or even days just to work one damn song right. Some artists gotta' go way out of their way just to record a verse so the least you can do is show appreciation and compensate them for their time and work.

Of Course Pay For Them Coming Down, Get Them Some Lunch, Go Some Where To Eat, Give Them Studio Time, Give Them Something In Return For Their Time, Do Something Back Right, Ya Im Defiantly All For That, But My Thing Is, You Wanna Get Pay, Ok Get Pay, We'll Pay, But Before All The Giving Of Something In Return Even If Its $150 Spare Change, There Should Be Some Type Of Respect And Showing Of Love Back To The New/Upcoming Even Established Artist That Are Hitting Up The Charging Artist For A Verse, Obviously This New/Upcoming And Established People That Are Hittng Up The Foo They Want A Verse From, Are Fans Of Their Work, Have Always Showed Loved To Them, Always Supported There Shit Right?, So Like I How I Was Saying, Before Its Official, Before There’s A Return Of Something, Shouldn’t This Charging Artist Show Love And Show Some Type Of Gratitude, If Your Showing Love And Congratulating There Success? Than Just Saying Shoot Me X Amount Of Money And I'll Do It, With No Thank You, What Kind Of Lame As Shit Is That Holmez, Its Just, Really Let It Be Known They Aint Fucking With It Or Not, How Much They Want If People Are Hittin Them Up For Their Work. It Gets Into Fucked Up Terms When There’s No Type Of Love Back When Its Being Showed And That’s Someting I Want People To See…….


And This Is For Sleepy's Question.
Na I Wouldnt Work In Your Store For Free But On Real Shit Hoime, If You Asked Me To Go Work For You For A While Cause You Wanted Me To Do Then I Will Help And Even Take Some People To Help You Because You Asked Correct, Now In The Music Form I Look At It Different Because Officially It Is, Its What I just Said Above.

i only have one reply for new people who think that some one owes you. no one owes you anything and just because your a homie dont expect anybody to something for you. imagine yourself as an established artist, u reach a level of lil wanye, or jay z etc. and now every last foo who wears red just happens to rap and just happens to be a homie.even though theyve never released a cd and never did anything except for buy a cd a of an artist they likeand you expet something in return. when you buy a stephen king movie does he tell you hs gonna let you star in his next film because you supported, no. you support because u like what theyre doing. imaine having just homeboyrap level of recognition and now every homie coming up expects something for free from you. not just you in your city but dozens and dozens of homies across the country who might not even have a name in their own varrios but expect someone they dont know to do something for them based on a common bond. apply that logic to anything in life and see how far you get. once again this is a business and you for damn sure aint giving the cd away , your selling them. and alos since some of you are homies do you think i get get the next years rent for the homeboyrap website because were homies.

^^^^If This Is For Me, I Dont Expect Something In Return Because I Bought A Cd From A Certain Artist, And I Dont Believe Somebody Owes Me Shit Because Im A Hoime And have That Music Bond, Really That Is Some Retarded Ass Shit, Like Ive Said In Multiple Posts And To Hella Different People, I Dont Give A Fuck If Any Homeboy Rapper Charges, Get Your Hustle On And Pay What You Gotta Pay With It, That Is Not A Problem, That Is Not A Situation I Care About. Ok Charge, Get Payed But Show The Love And Gratitude Back To Whom Ever IS Showing That Love To The Charging Artist, Dont Just Be On Some Celebrity Shit And Tell Em, Give Me X Amount Of Money, And Thats It. Or Like I Said If The Charging Artist Is Specifically Getting Asked To Drop A Verse With Out Gettin Love Shown, Than Say Give X Amount. But Really How Hard Is To Show Some Love Back No Matter Who The Fuck You Are....

When socialism and capitalism collide....

If your a good rapper and have good music eventually you will get noticed even without features if you that good, lets face it a lot of mothafuckas shouldn't be rapping to begin with. Let natural selection take its course and weed out the weak. If you good enough sooner or later you will get more opportunities.

im glad everybody don't work with each other...then albums would be just a bunch of compilations, that shits weak as fuck...Personally people have way too many features to call it a solo album anywayz. 2 or 3 solo joints isn't a solo album. Too me that shows that you just don't got bars to keep up. I'll make a whole 18 track album with not one feature if i wanted too.. Cuz i beast on the mic like that.

what my problem is with Unity..is that, can't nobody do shit for me. I can never benifit off nobody, but everybody can benifit off me.
I rap, make graphics, make beats, got a studio to rock at.....everybodies wants somethin, but what do i get in return....Nothing. All they can do is rap, and not that good. and blow up my phone like some stalkers. Never have money for beats, never have money for graphics, everybodies wants everything for free. I gotta hook up the studio time and come out my pocket.
When do i get favors in return?

Bunch off broke ass mutha fuckas pretending to be something.
hows that for Unity?

I mean, itz not like i think im better than everybody. Im down to collab with whoever..but try bringin somethin to the table beside some crumpled up piece of paper with scribbles all over it.

If you suck you should get charged EXTRA !! And if you haven't even dropped your solo album, yet you're announcing that you're working on a compilation, mixtape, dvd, movie etc. FUCK YOU!!
