Anyways, I prefer the underground due to quality of the music and the artist work ethic. Mainstream is about money and clubs.. but what can you do? There are artists within mainstream that are worth listening to (Kanye, Jay-Z, The Roots, Ghostface) but not too many.


Are you an idiot?

I said SOME OF THEM... dont call my comment stupid... read it first... NO i DONT like 50 cent... and he was underground... But I do feel some of ems mainstream songs....

it makes sense, and you're an idiot.

It seems the only good things about mainstream are the beats. Beat makers or at least the good ones seem to be drawn to the mainstream industry. It's a shame cuz with mainstream's wack ass lyrics, the beats are wasted. Underground is leaps and bounds better, but I still listen to people like NaS cuz although he made it, he's stayin somewhat underground in his style.
