its the majors and the artistsfor exampleyou have a underground rapper like tech n9ne who finally is gettin coast to coast support but hasnt appeared on mtv, bet, etc....every day but if he were signed to def jam he would, but in order to be signed and release a album you got to make that lil wayne type shit and he wont do thatso yeah its the artists for backin downanother example g malonehe went to the south for help but if he wants to he can outrap everyone hes tryna get help from, why da fuck do you go to the south for help when your better than them?cuz the label will only release his album if he has akon or tpain on his albumtherefore its the artists and the majorsQuote from: Jimmy H. on May 15, 2009, 02:07:52 PMQuote from: RingMan on May 15, 2009, 02:03:31 PMtha majors Nope.

good way of lookin at it but fact is if mtv co-sgined tech n9ne (decades ago or at anytime) imagine the fanbase he would reach out to and imagine what his sales would be?aite it might not be 10's of millions but I think it would be more than what it isbut thats the grind, he started from scratch and hes not askin for anyones help and hes sellin less units but hes makin some of the greatest muzik there is offeredso some of the greatest muzik offered vs bow wow, yung joc, nelly (no competition)
AGAIN GOOD POINTS DAYGObut if mickey d's were to sell say a new product (jollyranchers which to many are dope but not everyone knows of or about that type of candy)so they start sellin jollyranchers and then the muffuccaz that aint never had them are startin to have themand thats what im sayin about rappers like tech n9neif mtv would have given him a chance, the same type of fanbase that never heard of him, start hearin of him (that otherwise would never hear of him) and are feelin his muzikFUCK THA INDUSTRY AT ALL COSTS

Believe me, i been sayin that the best rappers out there are the ones nobody ever heard of, yah know? But from MTV's point of view, what would be their motivation for that? They would assume all the risk. They would put an artist on there who MIGHT blow up, might not. For them it makes more sense to put artists on who have already blown up. Unfortunately today, the artists who are blowing up are the bullshit artists. Cus we have too many bullshit fans. Either way, theres a lot of fucked up shit. The industry is fucked, the fans are fucked....the artists, i cant even blame THEM so much. Theyre just making whatever music sells. I might hate it, and it might be ruining hip hop...but thats why i gotta search elseware for good music.

They provide a service to their customers. MTV customers dont wanna hear tech n9ne. MTV viewers are 13 yr old girls. I agree, obviously, tech n9ne > Bow wow, etc. But the reality is, "hip hop fans" nowadays are not what they used to be. We (not the Hip Pop fans) are the minority now. More bitches are listenin to hip hop, more little kids are, so we either get this Mickey Mouse bullshit....or bootyshake music all over the radio and tv. Again, another reason I never tune in to the TV or radio for music...
