Why do you talk like I'm trying to make someoen into the next big hit? I'm trying to make that person into the best "them" they can be. I never once ever told anyone "maybe you should rap about this topic instead of the shit you normally rap about." or anything like that unless they were blatantly faking it, like JRoy (aka Past Tense) the christian rapper who moonlights as a gangsta rapper - neither is real). Its always "tighten your flow because it falls off on some spots", "some variation would keep a listeners attention longer", "your mic sucks". <--these are facts and adress someones musical persona. Didn't say jack shout about "you should be revolutionary!" but that's an interesting excuse for allowing redundancy and emulating mainstreamers. Wait a sec...you're the same guy who I JUST said all his tracks sound the same! What a coincidence. Now that we're at the heart of the real issue N, are you pissed because I said you're repetitive and formulaic and some variety and spontaniety would do you good? Yes you are. Was I lying? Nope.
Or are you upset because I said what everyone was thinking, and that you're WAY over-rated? Since when did you get so petty and emotional, N?
[what's really humerous about this is that your thread about "Test your Marketability" works on the EXACT same premise....but...of course....it's cool when you do it, but when Apexx gives marketability advice...he's the bad guy. Right.]
