the come up that nickelback had should be every rapper's dream.
they went from being broke, playing shyt tier bars for peanuts to headlining major festivals within 3-4 years.
i am not a fan, but i respect their grind and hustle immensely.
they truly are self-made and held onto their success by saying no and holding standards that few artists in the world are able to uphold.
you don't see ANY rappers turning down 600k + shows today, but these guys do regularly. last i heard, chad bought a 2nd yacht
they also tour separately in their own busses. they learned from the best in the biz, and their run from around 02-08 represents some of the largest touring grosses in history.
