Should a CD have more or less
Here's something that will skew it differently. Why not release each of your strong songs separately and timed (every week, or every other week) on your web site or MySpace page. That way - people will look forward to your new song and keep coming back. I know a few cats who have adopted... -
Lil Wayne - Tha Carter 3
LOL I agree. The album is an artistic disappointment. Bad flow, wordplay, etc. He has some points of brilliance. But it's commercial - and will... ... destroy any competition in this quarter - Universal runs this quarter. Uni will run the rest of the year too. Why did Uni drop such a... -

>>>A question for you G, as I have never experienced the same dog eat dog existance. - Right, I can tell. >>>Doesnt it in some way eat away at your soul/conscience to live and be a part of a backstabbing world? - Hmm... how can "moral" people also be so hypocritical. Like religious folk who...- God

Video Electronic Press Kits (EPK)
Video EPK is almost standard now. Here are two examples, one is from Jonathan Frost - it's different - and the other is from Mase and T.I. - those are more traditional. If you have any video editing skills, you should think about doing this. Jonathan Frost Mase Do a search on YouTube for... -
Some New Smash Brothers Music!
Here's an idea. Nintendo always looks for inventive ways of marketing shit. They do guerilla marketing, or they have a "Nintendo tour bus" that stops by near a college town to market their latest console. I would seriously consider doing the Nintendo theme - Smash Bros. and all - and getting... -
Marketing my new album...
I don't really know what to say – you live in rural Pennsylvania. You won't get any “street cred” unless you have a compelling life story – like you HAVE to live in the Poconos because you had to get away from running an international drug cartel, or are so fucking violent that the view of... -
"Long-term Cannabis Users May Have Structural Brain Abnormalities"
I'm not calling you a hypocrite. If weed is so bad - then why not ban alcohol? Alcohol is technically worse. "Studies" are sometimes bullshit dude, they can be done by some front group that's paid by an industry. Truman Capote died because his entire brain shrunk - cuz he was an...- God

Some New Smash Brothers Music!
^^^ Word. I didn't hear the rest of your tracks, so you could have something stronger than Cuckoo. Personally, I think Cuckoo has a strong instrumental and the delivery is on point. I think it's good- but it doesn't have that catchy radio-friendly hook. Maybe you're not necessarily going for... -
Some New Smash Brothers Music!
Hey guys, some of this is good stuff. Very well produced and there is something here. I would suggest, if you want to go "next level" you should have some type of coherent image. Then that should be displayed on your page. 50 Cent portrays a thug. Lupe Fiasco is more cerebral - appeals to a... -
Marketing my new album...
You have to budget yourself - how much do you want to spend? What skills do you possess that can help you? Can you do some webdesign? Are you good at drawing? Who do you want to market to? Are you trying to get management? Are you just trying to sell to the people? I posted some stuff for... -
So We're Opening for WC on June 3rd
Dude, the promoter was a dick. It's on him. He deserves to get the shit beaten out of him. Look at the positives: 1. You got an "opened for national act WC" on your resume. That's really good. You better post some stills from the show on your MySpace so you have create some social...- God

Ah, and so here's the crux of my entire post. You gotta first realize where I'm coming from. I live in a culture where we backstab and do whatever happens to get to the top in the biz. It's life. The thing is, if you really look at what I said - I didn't say anything really that...- God

I got no personal beef with them two - because I don't know the cats. I got beef with some ideas. That's it. Political discussions take a lot of time and can go on forever, so I'll just squash it right here. As far as "screw a PhD" - I never said that outright - you seem to be assuming I...- God

Let me guess you got a Master's or PhD in some social science. Dude, open your eyes, you know the competing interests that are at stake. Why don't you get off pontificating on a fucking messageboard and make a non-profit group or some shit. Or if you're involved in one - why don't you...- God

Internship!
Ha! The Format! They got dropped by Electra real quick cuz they couldn't sell records. I think some cat named Mike was their manager. Dude - let me give you a piece of advice, keep your head on your shoulders and grind. Keep your mind straight. EVERYONE says that they're doing this and... -
Thoughts on elitism and conspiracy threads here.
Blowing this up to the extent of the Jews in WWII or MLK is a different story. You're redefining the argument through a logical fallacy to try to support your point. Both the Holocaust and oppression of minorities is WRONG. It's nice that you're idealistic. I just think you'll probably see...- God

Internship!
You're expendable - if you cop an attitude he'll get rid of you for the 1,000 other cats lined up to steal your gig. If he's making you print shit like catalogs that sounds like they're just giving you busy work - so you have shit to do. It's common practice. You'll also do beer runs for them... -
Internship!
You can't get everything for free. Who is the guy and what's his publishing company? Find that out and we can check on whether his claims to fame are legit. You can too by doing a search with ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, etc. Or a few phone calls. You're basically paying him to work for him... -

This whole bullshit on "subversion" and "rebellion" is crap. You don't understand that whatever the hell happens, there's going to be another order that will tax the shit out of you and be the "elite." Just keep grindin' and keep your eye on the prize. Don't get caught up in bs. You don't...- God
