true, i think that also when u go commercial u got sum other shit to stand up to, cuz not every lable will let u get an over all expression of mind, its still bussiness, and they still gotta think bout consumers and in carsons case consumers parents, because more then half of people buyin those records aint grew up in the hood, and their parents are a lot more concious bout the music industry

I would consider myself underground based on the fact that I make my money a different way. Shit that whole underground is where its at though. You get a certain vibe when you listen to underground music. That real shit.
