[peeteey]

Aren't Good and Rap and Music all contradictory?

Any why do they have a graphic artist talking about making CDs? Isn't that like asking a fighter pilot to discuss the latest advances in dental techniques?

[NaneaAigee]

Rap, music? Don't make me lol.

[M3TzGeR95]

[TheNextGenBeats]

@Brieana347 lil wayne sold out hard. Dont get me wrong i would do the same thing but he is getting pretty close to a pop star

[TheDroidTalk]

For a little kid

But one day my dream will come true

[Nygunns1]

heres the rest..

but now im getting paid/ im still getting laid/ i still write these rhymes/ threw these dark times i look for some sunshine/ im only 14 years old / im turning to hustling in minnesotas cold.. message me wat u think im sure it sucks but its always been a dream

[Nygunns1]

alright i know this shit is gonna sound mad lame but its the first rhyme i ever wrote comign straight out my geometery boosk im 14 years old and this was before i watched any videos of structure but tel me wat u think im sure its shitty.

ive always dreamed of fillign these notebooks/ but i could never write a rhyme that stook/ i was gonna give up on my rapping career/ then i heard drakes new song called fear/ it insipred me to be what i am today/ even if i wasnt always gonna get paid.

[CalisFinest101]

I write music to put a message out. A good message. I don't sell my music, I give it away for free and put it on the internet for download. I got a few examples of my music on my page. But it's gotten deeper. I've found God and I'm putting God in my lyrics. Sorry if I have offended anyone but I'm not perfect.

[LilMissOutcast56]

@CalisFinest101 That awesome man! God has been inspiring me to go into writing more rap songs for some reason even though i have always been more of a singer. lol My music has a positive message as well :)

[ChannelEySoOfficial]

This man just helped big time. I only have the music ear i didnt understand why music sounded different to me now that i started doing it.

[chikapiss]

very good advice, thing is, most of my friends ARE musically talented or have a musician's ear, not a consumer's ear. I know maybe...three people that have a consumer's ear...

[Mrrader449]

he is wearing the same shirt in every vid.....

[DylanM999]

@jeff561964 i fucked your mother to a tupac song!

[nathanglover100]

[REY4262]

[jorgegarrison]

wayne used to rap. now hes just a mothafuckin pop sellout

[clone79]

waynes the best rapper alive,

[WhiteKeys007]

fiance?

[MrOutPsycho]

U SPEAK THA TRUTH

[shorey911]

i liked the other advice you give a lot but, i feel its almost selling out if your trying to tune your music to what you think might sell more. My opinion is make it for yourself, if you truly enjoy it, people who share your tastes will aswell

[deathtotubez]

yea but if ur making a career out of rapping you need to know what consumers think. unless its a hobby and you wanna be a poor mixtape rapper

[theintransigent]

Here is some advice for you... you fat ass, slow brain, wankster! First, quit eating you fat fuck! Second, quit doing drugs you slow brained retard. Third, there is no art in rap today it's all about marketing an image. We know this because rappers are in majority the most ignorant people on the planet!

[totsuo831]

bro you wanna listen to some art that is rap, aesop rock, cage, mf doom, there's a lot of others, weerd science, scheck those guys out and you wont be saying rap isnt art

[theintransigent]

@totsuo831

I agree... I should have made the distinction in my post that there are definitely some, and only some, artists in the rap business but like I said below the majority of rappers today are pure image. For example rappers like soulja boy, chingy, Nikki Manaj, Tyga... I don't even feel comfortable naming this trash. I do acknowledge real artists in the business like Outcast for example.

[theintransigent]

The difference between the real artists and the pure image trash is whether they can tell a story with their rhymes that includes a theme and plot... Some of the rappers you named were indeed good at that. This fat fuck in the video above wouldn't know a thing about that. He's just a convict in training like the rest of em.

[totsuo831]

yeah yeah, i get you, and i completely agree,

[shorey911]

fuck you asshole

[amazrand]

If this guy is such an expert than how come no-ones ever heard of him? trying to pawn himself off as some sort of successful producer or music insider. I can see his cheap ass Behringer speakers sitting right behind him. What a joke! Rap is the special olympics of music***

[NWDAMU503]

whats good music wut does you square ass listen too sound like your more of a hater than a musician who r u i bet hes more know than u are

[stratman06]

Speaking as a professional musician, this is great advice.

5 stars.

[ScootaBoyProductions]

Thats a tight rap. Its good for one of your first raps

[datstudrapper]

I feel what you said at the end about not letting someone just hear a verse. You can't tell if its a hit til you hear the completed project.

[aviators18]

wow, the internet really mass produces idiots, but this is awesome

[imfrommattapan]

brotha you either got or you don't. i know people who write, sing and produce thier own beats, and thier songs are fiyah which they know without my advice, some people just got it that way.

[desasterz]

maybe to some extent man, but there have been talented pepol who got overtaken by pepol who's strenkth is working on it, working on it, working on it...

[logic33157]

Straight up, you put it into words i didnt know how to explain it.

There is two point of views..i always get both.

[depri87]

i feel ya

[danielonly123]

i tried doing it by myself time and i use snoop doggs song vato as a sample but i notice that it im just cheating. its hard to write rap

[bigno9]

it was at first when i was using wayne

[demonology1]

lil wayne??... he doesnt rap, hes a shit pop star

[clone79]

@demonology1 fuck you bitch,waynes the best rapper alive i dont give a fuuck about what yall think.if you really listen to his music you;ll know what im talking about.

[demonology1]

@clone79 <-- good name for someone who has a clones mainstream taste in music

best rapper alive? jesus how the fuck can you call yourself a hiphop fan

please listern to Percee P, KRS-ONE, Lord Finesse, RZA, GZA, fuck everyones better than wayne, like literally its not opinion because the context and flowof his raps are fucking terrible

[clone79]

@clone79 all thoses niggas you just listed suck your grandmas ass.

[REY4262]

@clone79 u a no life mother fucken bitch

[thegame52291]

@demonology1 young moolahh babyy!!

[theboredkid100]

@demonology1 ur a fucking retard

[demonology1]

@theboredkid100

im the retard? if you knew anything about hip hop you would realise how fucking stupid you are for enjoying his retarded "raps" over shit pop music . im sick of talking about the cunt to be quite honest.

[tr3vis123]

@demonology1 lil wayne is a beast O.O

[demonology1]

@tr3vis123

learn about hip hop first you fucking retard,

because yes in this case YOUR OPINION IS WRONG

[black0psgamepl4ys]

@demonology1 bull shit

[demonology1]

@black0psgamepl4ys

pop is popular music

hip hop is representing the 7 elements, while the music has roots in jamacan dance hall,

with that boom boom bap-nness

thats why you CANT tell me wayne is hip hop, commercial ass motherfucker

[rebeka386]

@demonology1 bastard lilwayne goes hard you dont know whay you talkin about

[demonology1]

@rebeka386

in the field of hip hop, i do.

i cba for another argument about him, but before you pointlessly claim he "goes hard" go listern to alot more hip hop and then tell me still that hes an MC

[demonology1]

@rebeka386

what im talking about it hip hop, and you sir.

KNOW NOTHING ABOUT IT

first learn about hip hop, then tell me he goes hard. he sells cheap lyrics through a corporation.

about a month ago i had a freind who ripped his wayne poster off his wall because he realised that wayne sucks. end of

[luigi370]

@demonology1 I agree with you 100%! Lil' Wayne is not a rapper.at all. The only reason people like him is because of his beats and catchy hooks. That is not hip hop. Hip hop music is about expressing oneself through poetry and rhythm. It is also about wordplay and spitting straight fire.

[demonology1]

@luigi370

i like the cut of your jib man ima freind you when i cba

[rebeka386]

@demonology1 you think lilwayne wayne sucks well you outa luck cuz he bought your mom with only two bucks you think you can rap your flow looks and smells like crap

beat that if your so good

[demonology1]

@rebeka386

HAHA youve just proved my point, all his fans are fucking idiots.

and how are you supposed to rap through internet typing wars; on a side note that shit was elemental and weak

[Juffanator]

@demonology1 please man lil wayne is still a beast, hate him all you fucking want for being mainstream and using auto tune again but the dude is makin his way doing what he loves, so shove off. lil wayne might not be the best rapper but he is for sure a talented motherfucker, and I don't give a damn what your response to this is, peace!

[demonology1]

@Juffanator

i dont hate him for that, i hate him because he is fucking talentless.

check out the freestyle on westwood, or lack of freestyle.

in comparison to all the rappers (and i use the term loosely) before him he is not talented.

come back to me after learning about hip hop

[Agrosity]

@Juffanator lil wayne sucks

[rebeka386]

@Juffanator what the fuck quire you just dissed on him

[catastropheFilm]

@demonology1 i want to create multiple youtube accounts just to give you more thumbs up

[ConsciousMaster]

that's real talk

[funkster45]

Music is NOT about making money. Who cares if your record sells or not?

Do it because you love it, not because you want to sell it.

[merocket]

very true but on the other end you gotta stay true still..but what if it's your job? it's gotta matter then

[demonology1]

you do it because you like it and you NEED to sell it asshole,

all the greatest started to make money, IE biggie smalls, Big L, snoop etc. they didnt have outher jobs exept drug selling etc.

so stfu idiot it is about MONEY the whole earth is fueled oon MONEY

[googenshlagen]

@funkster45

While that's true, if you wanna it your job, your life, you gotta make money somehow.

[behinddacurtain]

@funkster45 wanna see you say that, when you broke and hungry as hell

[johne281]

@funkster45 Thats idealogical but not realistic. Keep your defense mechanism for your own failure to yourself homie. Thank you.

[shyko95]

@funkster45 yeah, true, i write music because i luv it too, but i want to make money because: 1-i'm skint lol, and 2-that means people will listen... see

[NappsDhaKidd]

@funkster45 true but many also want it to sell in order to reach the people

[kawasakikid800]

@funkster45 some of the best and most talented musicians in the world only made it through their determination to sell and become rich.

[DarrenCampbellmusic]

@funkster45 are you kidding??? yeah its about the music and you shouldnt make music just to make money.... but if your records don't sell then how do u get the money to keep producing more records. people who make music for a living need to make money form their music to make a living

[Insanity154]

@DarrenCampbellmusic Yeah brother but you don't have to be a famous rapper to rap, right? Rapping could be a hobby or something you do for fun. Not every rapper makes money for rapping, but I'm sure every rapper enjoys what they do.

[iwritemusica]

@funkster45 Foooooshow

[xTEXASxKINGx]

@funkster45 i believe in that, but if that artist doesnt sell then his label wont even put an interest in him anymore.(only if signed lol)

[MastaInferno]

Good, Advice and this could help the average mind change they perspective on how they approach, when writting lyrics

[Legend2b4Life13]

thx u change whole way i was takin my approach to gettin herd appreciate

[elcolecio]

Thanks!!
