Easy. I already told you how to seperate the guys who are interested from the guys who are blowing you off. If you want to bullshit your self and ignore that - that's on you.

BTW - not for nothing, but...how do you think I know how the signing procedure works? Lucky guess? smh...


so im guessing you want a pat on a back because you "might" be signed?? jst cuz u got signed doesn't mean u gotta tell people... and no one cares if ur signed or not so don't even mention it.. And if u we're, u most likely wouldn't have time to go online at this time!! No beef, jst words coming out of my mouth

Sounds like words that are coming outta your ass. Who said I was signed? Where's I say anything about me being signed or not signed? No one mentioned jack shit about me till YOU brought it up. Now have a seat and learn to read. Not neccessarily in that order.

Oh, BTW - you're not getting signed. have a nice day!!

Wet Willy 02-18-05 04:26 PM

Sean G. 02-18-05 04:29 PM

i dont think im gonna get signed because i dont wanna get signed, this is like an activity to me, im serious as fuck about this, but not as serious to try to make a career, feel me, my older bro raps but he also works 2 jobs, while i have to try to support my 6 yr. old niece and go to school and football.

BUT

if sum1 came up to me and said im from interscope or sum otha big label, and they wanted to sign me, i would most likely say...? now that i think about it...hmmm...*ponders* depending on wat im doin when and IF that'll ever happen, that'll make up my decision

Niggas...

So many niggas get signed a day its crazy,all it is is GOOD deals.
If you're good then you should turn heads by performing and tryna
get on mixtapes...its sooo fuckin easy...Don't believe me?Watch BET uncut niggas.

talent takes away all hard work.

Indie label = nothing to brag about. Anyone can create an independant label and make them selves CEO and A&R, head producer, head of Post Production, and lead act - all operating out of a treehouse. Unless your name is trademarked and your lyrics are copywritten, your "record label" = not "acknowledged" and none of your contracts or paperwork is legally binding in a court of law. Any jackass can get signed to that lol.

There's a handful of indie labels that are worth a damn because they're Professionals trying to break ground. And by "Professionals" I mean that their shit is all on the books and their shit is pro quality stuff - not to mention their distribution goes beyond local barbershops and nail joints. But what a coincidence..they still run EXACTLY like the "majors" and still treat you the same way. An indie label may be more tolerant of working with you to help you hone your style, but they'll still conduct shit the exact same way.

Stop refusing the truth. "We'll call you later" = "No contract for you!!"

Called it right there. Exact shoes I was in. Turned down an offering once already and I'll keep doing it till one that's actually worth it hits. That's jsut me though. Some niggas think ANY record deal is the shit. They think they'll be seeing cars and shit - nope. Can count on one hand how many people will get signed for anything over 30k on their first deal.
