What the fuck is this fucking sold out shit? :facepalm
Man let the artist deside himself who he want to work with :coffee:
I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it.
Spent a million a track and went over my budget.
Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt?
I can't rap anymore, I just murdered the alphabet.

Fuck that if someone changes their style/attitude for money/fame that's how you define sellout. Alot of people conteract saying we just tryin to make money (a la 50 Cent) but when you see someone like Luda randomly deciding to do gay-ass shit with Bieber, that speaks volumes..

The List:
Luda (thing is as a rapper, he's still great overall just working with the wrong peeps)
Snoop
A Shit Load of UK ex-grime mc's /rapper
Busta Rhymes (see Luda for explanation)
Mobb Deep (and that's for Infamy)
Surprisingly i can't think of more
3K & Out

I agree with Menzo about Snoop and Luda. And people wanna point fingers at Em? :laughing:

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

I think most "sellout" crys happen when fans think they know what their artists personality is like and then the artist does something that isnt part of the "image" they created with their music and the fans start bitching. I bet Luda thought Beiber was cool, I mean outside of the guys music there isnt anything to hate and Luda was probably taking to Justin, not Justins discography.

I'm not talking about Em with this, Em changed as a person. Old Em was bitter and cynical, years of money and good living change that.
