The whole thing about calling shit on the net "fake" isn't even relivant anymore. So many bands and artists are discovered on the net now a days that it's really just as, if not more efficient, of a tool for being "found." These communities, although have yet to harbor a discovered label artist, helps to get the name known, and for those who aren't quite up to par with their abilities these communities provide a valid source of interaction with other artists who can help.

Everyone's so quick to down the concept of internet rap, when it has really proven itself beyond alot of other so called "real" means of making moves. So in that regard, Rb is actually good place to elevate... It has more developed artists and greater competition. Rv on the other hand IS a means of "time wasting," because the majority of people over here decide to spend the better portion of their time bull shitting with random kids. I don't know, in my opinion shooting for a record deal and having people respect and enjoy your writing/music seems alot more productive than wasting time in a community Lounge.
