Im wondering how many kids here actually wanna make rap their full time job. Personally, rap lyrics n music is something I live for, I love hearin new dope rap tracks.. Theres been nights where I been high n drunk off my guts jus listenin to tracks trippin off my head at what the artists are saying with their lyrics. And that shit is fucken amazing.

Thats why next year Ill be trying to get into a sound engineering coarse so I can hopefully get kick started in the music industry. Get some experience producing and all that shit.

Is there anyone else here making moves to try n get into the rap game as a profession ? Or do you just write lyrics as a hobby and a bit of fun to come onto rap sites ?

as for rap as a career... nah... writing lyrics for the artists... thats something i could see my self doing... ive had poetry published.. i could see myself writing for rap artists but im not holding my breath waiting.

He's right . .


& to even be considered
you dont need to be an ill rapper...
You need to be decent . . who can rhyme normally
Also having a dope producer is more important than the rhymer in the industry . .
You need to look like a hiphop artist and not some skinny stupid fake looking punk who can rap i l l . .

The industry dont sign SKILL . . they sign you baised on the way you can FLOW and if you sound good on a track & look like people would look up to you . . they would probably get back to youi . .

IF you some skinny ass nerd who rhyme's illness .. BELIEVE me just look for a proffesion.
