People will buy music just because wayne on it, That's a fact.

If you get wayne as a feature and drop a track like down (jay sean track) and it went to #1 on billboard for 3 straight weeks. that 100k would be pay for itself plus millions more.

Btw the artist doesn't personally pay the rapper (most of the time) that's why you usually see artists singed by big time label uaslly get big features because the label pays for it.

i heard Minaj is somewhere like 50,000. I'd pay that for a "Monster" verse, but not for a "Bottom's Up" verse lol.

Damn, that's pretty cheap for Tech. I would expect Tech to charge more now that he's becoming for relevant in the industry.

Dude those are 2 of her best guest verses, what's wrong with Bottom's Up? She spazzes on it, and the way she switches up her flows and voices is great. It isn't meant to be a deep verse, it's a party song.

Plus she's banging in the vid...

I really doubt they charge. Most likely they're at the point where they only do it with people on their label or people they want to collaborate with.


Eminem? probably. But Nas? kid is broke as fuck and he has to pay ridicolous amounts to his ex, he's probably fighting the feature pay-checks as high as possible. There is a reason he is touring like crazy, the man is doing a mini tour in norway for gods sake!

Lol, yes. That's how popular rappers make a lot of money. But depending on what label you're on, the prices may vary. The label can easily stop a collaboration if they don't get paid, which is kinda fucked up. I think you should be able to call someone up and ask, then if they wanna charge you they can. But labels are the main reason for the prices and shit

That, and for underground rappers this is their only way to make money so they have to charge for that kind of stuff, even if it's only $500 so they can make a living.

Check Rebirth and I'm Not A Human Being :coffee:

That comment is more suited for Eminem. Even Relapse sold very well just because of Em's name alone, even though the content isn't suited for everyone

How much do you think Em get?

I though you got other rappers on a song just for the quality and the music, not cuz of the money :facepalm
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.
