Because they can't afford shit.

Dude, lots of underground rappers are TRYING to get a record deal. You're getting yourself confused.

Only SOME, like Immortal Technique, choose to remain not as mainstream. Some don't give a fuck.

The whole and not the half of it; vocab and not the math of it/
Projectile that them blasted with; accurate assassin shit/

Immortal Technique rejected a deal with Def Jam, now that's a guy who believes in his ideals

Where you're at a club, music is in the background, your main focus is girls and drinking. When you're with friends, music is in the background, and your main focus is to just chill with your friends, and do whatever it is you're doing with your friends. When you're by yourself, its all you, no one to argue about what song to play or what not to play, so that time, my friend you listen to music.

And that is the only time that music is really important, when you're by yourself.



your right, which is why I tend to listen to underground music when i'm alone and mainstream when i'm with others... im not a loner, i usually am out with other ppl then am alone

Did I ever say that? No you fucking faggot. Don't get shit out of your ass, fucking liar. And calling me a wannabee rapper? People catch the quick rich scheme and copy others cause its easy. But you can bet your fucking life that that's not me or that's not what I would ever do, no matter what. Calling me a wannabee rapper is like calling someone who wants to be a doctor in the future a wannabee doctor, cause I have that much dedication to it. You're fucking stupid, calling me a wannabee when I have more dedication than you for anything.

Is that some type of insult? cause it was dumb as an insult and dumb all together cause you already said I'm right, no need to be ignorant.

Don't front faggot, you meant that wannabee as an insult. No one calls someone else a wannabee unless they're insulting someone, don't fucking play dumb.

How can they be wannabe rappers if they are rapping? if you play soccer, you are a soccer play, if you act like a douche (i.e. you) then you are a douche

maybe they are waanabe big rappers (who isn't) but so is your ass buddy Anon (who I like and am no way insulting)

stop being ignorant and reaching for an argument, everyone get back on topic

Hahahaha that never made it? lmaooooooo that was a good one, but it was very cheap and it doesn't even relate to me lmao. No I'm not a pissed off rapper that never made it, I'm just a pissed off rapper that's practicing. How the fuck can you say that if I haven't even sent a demo to any label ever? Exactly, take your cheap shots, your stupid threads about Hip Hop and fuck off. Cause the only reason you even make these threads are obviously cause you want attention and not the good kind of attention, you just wanna start shit. Now if a mod was smart enough to realize your worthless threads, you wouldn't be here.

I believe a capital letter should start a sentence grammar sensai. Am I correct in assuming this?

Actually, after I said to stop the argument and you responded that in effect made you continue it.

I'm 13 years old and you act as if you are the minor in this situation, but they do say ignorance is bliss.

oh yes, i got owned! not.

and referring to your earlier post. sorry, i'll correct it. "pissed off rapper who'll never make it". if you notice, i don't argue with many people on here, but you're one that i do argue with, well, it's because you come in my topic and obviously act like a WUM. so this little argument was entirely your fault. so to ban me for this, would mean you'd have to be banned too.

Lol @ thinking my ego is big enough for that to even hurt me. Dude I can say some songs of mine suck with 100% accuracy, I can break down my flaws easily TO MYSELF. So like I said before, your cheap shots are getting really cheap now.

Nah that's not how it goes. You started this topic, and your intentions was to start shit, which can relate to all your rap topics. And what I don't get is why would you keep embarrassing yourself over and over again? Every topic of yours in this section, you've had some points, but then people have come across and owned you many many times. In other words, you've failed.
