Why do you want to be famous?
 
with all the people on here that dream of being a celeb and what not, why do you want to be famous?

Crazy Hades 07-20-06 04:38 AM

To spread the word of individuality by getting as much exposure as I can, among spreading other ideals of mine. :)

La Cosa Nostra 07-20-06 04:46 AM

The main drive For me is All the people who doubted me and if i reached that level of sucess then I could show them I could do it and finally get the respect I deserve. Thats my main reason. I dont really care about the money its a good thing I'd rather be known then have money tho

I aint that rapper that follows trends like a chump... I stay on my own thing and keep it real sayin the shit everyone else is thinking...

I'm a personality not just a music artist... And rap aint got many of those left.

Esp in my country.

you do realise when you become famous you no longer become an individual because people begin to immitate you being ya fans and all that

and EVERY time you re-invent yourself...BAM...they'll follow trend...

it's why i DON'T wanna be famous...i like my individuality...and my private life...i don't want my partners on "OK" magazine tellin them about my personal shit or people constantly speculating about me on national TV or whatever...

fame sucks...it all looks good when the cameras are on you but when they're not and you can't even take a shit in the bathroom without someone standing by it (Eminem) then u'll realise how wack fame is

the fortunes good though lol :thumbup:

For better or worse man..

Cats in that position experience shit nobody else in the world can ever hope to experience...

Personally I find that more interesting than sticking on the straight and narrow living a 'private life'...

Those who know me know I'm not really what you'd consider a recluse... So a lot of these sorts of things dont really bother me anyway.

Crazy Hades 07-20-06 05:28 AM

Is wanting to advance my agenda selfish? If it is, oh well, I guess I'm a selfish, officious little prick. :)

Personally, I wouldn't mind fame; good with the bad. I'll meet people who hopefully do not attempt to use me if I become famous, even if I have to shove a papparazi or two.

but could you honestly picture yourself going to the SAME places with the fame label attached to yourself and expect people you've NEVER met in ya life jus randomly walk up to you and start trying to be ya best friend...more than usual coz everyone meets new people...but these people will practically harrass you coz once you try and say bye ot them they'll keep on at ya...

if anything...fame...will make you more of a recluse because you'll be forced into it...coz assholes won't leave you the fuck alone...

shopping...you're going to pick up a sandwich or something and 20 people are like OMG IT'S NOS WOOOP WOOP WOOOOP AUTOGRAPGH PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE...

jus pointing out some cons coz people seem to think it's all about the red carpet and premiere's to new films where they stand and smile for half an hour...

Enygma 07-20-06 09:02 AM

Word.....I really don't care too much about the fame. I like hip hop and I do this as a hobby. If something more comes out of it, then hell yeah.......but I don't set my expectations too high right now. I know how hard it is to make it in this business and to be honest, it's all in who you know. Right now I know no one, so guess where my career is going =/

Indeph 07-20-06 09:27 AM

To get back at the assholes who want to lower my standards for success by belittling the reward for my hard work...

Blackmage 07-20-06 09:49 AM

yea i don't, i got a bunch of people here with studios who wanna rep me, for some reason i'm rather popular with music, and i turn them all down because i'm going to college to become an english teacher. I'd rather not be famous and make a real difference, so i'm gonna teach kids that before you can pervert the english language you must learn it.

.Judicial. 07-20-06 12:04 PM

because i love attention as do must of us....plus its like when your really known you have more of a voice...because thats just the way the world is these days

B To The D 07-20-06 02:03 PM

I dont give a fuck

Nynth Degree 07-20-06 02:07 PM

Because I'd like to be widely known for something I'm damn good at, not necessarily rapping.

And being famous isn't a dream of mine, I just think it would be pretty cool if I somehow fell into stardom.

Key... 07-20-06 02:09 PM

one difference is that in one is an acknowledgement of skill and ability, and how it's used to improve ones self, where as the other is someone talking about how important he should be to somebody else.

see the difference?

Chris Stylez 07-21-06 01:49 AM

Too have sex with all the peoples moms,sisters, and g/fs in a big interracial orgy. But on the real to have a national voice that people will here.

Ay man..

You call it acknowledgement of skill and ability...


Everyone else called it boasting and attention seeking...

But ay, nobodys taking shots here...

Rappers got ego's myman....... If you have no sense of self importance youll never make it in this industry.

You know that...

Nah man, "boasting and attention seeking" is what somebody who wants to be important to others would do. The other person wants to show others how ..look! if he could turn his life around, anyone can.

see the difference? one empowers people to rise up on their own. The other takes the power away from the people and says "you need me".


wait....exactly liek you did, here:

When I say the world needs people like me, it sure as fuck is self importance.. Because I see a gaping hole where very few people are actually being real anymore in the public eye.. Everyones too caught up on hype and bullshit...

I'm not saying I'm the next big thing, I'm saying I would like to be in a position of influence because the world needs people who can break through the lathargic fucking lemming mentality this globe is full of right now.

Look at the greats man..... Music artists rise to that level because they become the voice of the people and say the things everyone else wants to say.

Shit, I dont even need to tell you this.. Your not the type of cunt I need to sit here and school on what makes an artist great. But I also realise you got a bit of prejudice against some of the comments I made in this thread based on w/e the fuck little pre-concieved judgements you have of me.

I aint sweatin it, cause you dont know a thing about me outside of a post box.


You need to rack a line and be a bit more happy with life...

hahhah, yup, I'm proud i said the truth, an insecure dude would think it's bragging. you can sell your self-glory to your self how ever you want though. see...i never said the world needs me, that's the difference between me and you.

and rack a line? ahhhhaahahaha. i turn down coke son. your rap white boy dread locks must be glued together too tight
