:yeshrug: U say u don't believe in yourself and keep it moving. Imagine if some of the goats thought that way. We would have missed a lot classic

Imagine is a artist like Adele didn't believe in herself and gave all her music away cause she fat and not the prettiest in hope of one day getting a favor from the bigger artist

I just can't believe how invested and emotional people have been surrounding anything to do with drake or the whole issue with meek. It's just music folks.

People in flint have no clean water. I hope you guys are invested in that issue...

it aint about believin in yaself

i know for a fact me and my boys are as good as anyone. facts. but the game isnt about being great. its about money, connections, blah blah blah.

if OVO comes knocking and you turn away, youre a fool. straight up.

making that one connection can change ya life. idk who any of these guys making music for drake were until drake put em on.. now they on hot97, getting checks for their work.

idk.. sounds good to me. then use that spin to put yaself on

People like u who try and change the subject are pure hoes

U know how much stuff u invest yourself in that's not saving somebody or helping somebody life daily. Being on this site and post that post is a example of it.

People in Africa has been without water for a long time, I hope u have invested in that issue over posting on the coli

But this model also keeps a lot of good music underground and make sure that the rich music execs, namely white people, continue to make money off the streets, mostly black..right.

But taking race out of it, because it's not just about that, in the '90s indie rock bands rebelled against this same system because they wanted to make money off their art and on their own terms.

Hip Hop was created independently and didn't need to rebel at first.

It might just come to that or something else will be created.

At the end of the day this is about who makes the money, the artist or the corporation.
