Commercial/Non Commercial WHO CARES???

[SDE]

I have always loved hearing people harp on and on about how commercial sucks, I just want to laugh cause you hear underground acst dissing mainstream and then you hear these street cats dissing main stream but yet these same underground acts are also trying to become mainstrream weather they realize it or not... It's all about dissing whos on top until your on top... and these ones that aren't main stream will just continue to diss and diss just like peeps on this board.  We all know everyone wants to be on top and get what they have to say out to the most amount of people possible, its the truth, it's a fact now can we please stop the B.S. about commercial/non-commercial artists.

I don't care either. As long as they don't change their music its no big deal. Just more money in the bank for them.

[Trauma-san]

Yeah.... BAsically, It's A Form Of Discrimination

Whenever People Just Blindly Dismiss Someone Because Of One Aspect Of Them, That's Discrimination To Me....

It's Like Peeps That Just Hate On Puff And Shit, And Then Don't Listen To His New Stuff.  Now, I'm Not Taking Up For Him, But Peeps Do That With Everybody... That's Why You Don't Hear Me Bad Mouthing Many Rappers, Cuz To Each His Own.

If your good you cant help but turn commercial because everybody wants to hear your music, 2Pac, Biggie, Dre, Snoop, Eminem, Wu Tang etc.

Well thats what i think anyways.

Yeah I've been thinking this for ages
There's a few people on this board who always have a go at big rappers and then name underground cats as if that proves that the big acts suck

[Mr_Loc]

hope your not talkin about me there jay

i like commercial rap and underground, obviously if it wasnt for commercial rap most of us might never have heard any hip hop. but people who dont know shit about the underground are really missing out in my opinion.

you should like both sides, to me the music can be equally dope whether it sells millions or tens, i dont care.

what i do hate is when shit gets over-exposed, but thats hardly ever the artists fault. its the media who chooses to do it, except with fools like michael jackson and eminem who play right into the medias hand like a well planned strategy

[Jay ay Beee]

Hmm Ha Ha! Naw dogg ur right I gotta get into the underground!
Ur from the Uk ain't ya - so how can u get all this underground stuff when we can't even get RAW and DPG over here?
Or am I wrong about u being from the UK?
Safe

[Mr_Loc]

yea im from the uk but i always found a way to get that underground ish, either on the net or from fools in cali, i got good connections.

[Jay ay Beee]

For real

[Now_Im_Not_Banned]

to answer SDE's question...Usually people hate on comercial stuff, because usually when underground rappers go commercial, they sell out, or change their style...But there is a lot of TIGHT comercial shit too...

[RAPQUAKE]

so jay ay bee, ur from UK 2???

THERE ARE LOADS OF BULL SHIT IN THE UNDERGROUND AND THERE ARE LOADS OF TIGHT SONGS/PEEPS IN THE UNDERGROUND

THERE ARE BUNDLES OF HORSE SHIT IN THE MAINSTREAM AND THERE ARE BUNDLES OF TIGHT SONGS/PEEPS IN THE MAINSTREAM



THAT'S HOW I LOOK AT IT, BECUASE ALMOST EVERY RAPPER THAT'S CAME UP USE TO BE UNDERGROUND
