Dude, go back and read what I said. Three years ago, every underground rapper was more talented than mainstream hip hop. But these days, mainstream is on the dick of mixtapes which is why guys like Jadakiss, Talib, Common, etc. get mainstream respect. You don't have to sell 10 million to be considered mainstream man. All you gotta do is be mentioned on VH1... and all those guys have been.

Supernatural was featured on MTV once if I recall. Jin was a mainstream success before he even had a record deal. And Juice was bigger in the underground scene 10 years ago than he is now, and he doesn't battle anymore like he became known for then.

That's what I meant. Not all underground rappers get mainstream love, but come on, that's changed some these days.
