Rap for them a song that in all cases represents a hit single... Even the best rappers can get turned down because their lyrical content doesent fit the type of image that their looking for in the rap industry.
Over in Australia its different, but in america for you Q, you need to fit the steriotype of a sellable image to gain any possibility of getting signed...
Its fucked up, but thats the straight up truth.

I agree...Jay Z was turned down and we see how successful he is...
I'm asking this because I have an opportunity to go to NY and perform in front of some DJs...including Kay Slay...
and I'm seriously considering it...I mean, I have nothing to lose...if I don't do it, then I'll have regrets...If I do it, the worse that can happen is they say "Nah, we ain't feelin that, sorry"
pssf...
