Wake up! Videos and press clips are IMPORTANT!
Come on Relic, don't shit on me man... lol.... This is a signed band. Of course they have more shit than you. They're on the cover of magazines, you're not. Yes, make it smaller. But be realistic -- you might have more "press" than you think you know of. For example, are there reviews... -
Wake up! Videos and press clips are IMPORTANT!
This pisses me the fuck off more than anything, because it is SO fucking easy to make, and SO many people fuck this up, cheapening their value when they're shopping for a deal. 1. Videos I DON'T mean videos like the shit you see on MTV. Videos where you lip-synch in front of an Escalade... -

Should I Cop?
Don't go with the Mbox, you don't have the budget to get a real PT setup and you're basically selling yourself short. If you expect to port to PT, start with Apple and use Cubase or Logic. It doesn't make sense, at your budget, to buy the Mbox. We're being real with you. -
Best software for creating a mixtape
Sound Forge lets you add tags to the master track (with all the songs) so there is no "skip" between songs. Most of the higher end audio editors should let you do this (Audition, WaveLab, etc.) -
Studio Monitors
I third that motion. This is what is really considered "low end" http://www.nextag.com/Mackie-HR824-Studio-Monitor-3612901/prices-html?nxtg=162bb0a1c0530-A83E85B47EEE304E Those are Mackie HR824s. You can find them for around $800 a pair if you search right. That's bottom of the barrel... -
Bass Question
Waves Maxbass. Beware if you don't have good monitors to reference it though, you will think it's hot, but you'll have too much low end that your mix will sound like shit -- it will kill normal speakers. What type of bass are you trying to make? A sine wave bass drop? A bass guitar line? A... -
Should I Cop?
What type of ProTools are you getting? Please don't say "Mbox." Main components of studio: 1. Mic (get a good one) 2. Monitors (you need high quality monitors to get a good reference.) 3. Soundcard If you are on a budget, these are probably the most important for you. Remember when you... -
NIck Cannon and MAriah Carey are married
Damn, Nick is smart as hell. Smashing some hot older pussy plus having extra money in the bank. Look for his career to really take off. His association with Mariah will open new doors for him in a business sense. She has a lot more leverage and her business group has more connections that...- God

Truth hurts - Find an investor for your project to get signed.
Right, I'm just saying -- you don't "tell" somebody that your friends with so and so and post their Myspace friends on a public forum and say this shit all out in the open -- with real names. What if I was someone who is invested in Jay-Z in some way, either working with him, or work for Def... -
So We're Opening for WC on June 3rd
Fuck the acronym - LAUGH MY FUCKING ASS OFF -- I have seen, worked and know tools like the promoter you're talking about. My god, he's kind of like the "manager" I outlined in my "find an investor" post in the Industry section. At least you don't have stars in your eyes and are aware that he...- God

So We're Opening for WC on June 3rd
My how WC's stock has fallen when people have to pay-to-play to open up for him. Before he could secure a minor act off DefJam. Dude, the promoter is hustling you. Let me entertain you with a true story of how an opening act is found from the very bottom of the barrel, and how they make...- God

Bill O'Reilly Is Angry
Bill O'Reilly's fake as hell. But he understands the game and how to play it. Being stupid like he is creates a solid fanbase, he's still one of the top ranked "news" anchors on cable.- God

Report Warns on Serious Mental Problems in Teens Using Pot
I remember seeing a TV story on a Pfizer plant in Ireland that made Viagra. The older male inhabitants of the town said they didn't have ED any more. They joked: "It must be the plant nearby, they're putting good pollution into the air." The plant was billowing something into the air, I'll...- God

Report Warns on Serious Mental Problems in Teens Using Pot
Crux of message: - If you're a teenager that is already suffering from a mental disorder (depression, etc.) then marijuana increases the risk of negative reactions, like thoughts of suicide, etc. Instead of smoking marijuana to self-medicate, go to a psychiatrist so they can prescribe you a...- God

So We're Opening for WC on June 3rd
1. His manager is a prick (if he still has the same one.) 2. He'll show up in an unmarked Dodge Ram van at the venue. Wait... he probably won't he got DROPPED FROM DEF JAM! 3. His DJ uses a hard disk recorder for playback. 4. His stage presence is simply "ok". 5. His area record rep will...- God

Ironman
Iron Man was the shit. Downey Jr. was fucking brilliant in it. I wish I could be as cocky as him all the time, he had comebacks to everyone. This is ties with Batman 1 , The Crow 1, and Spidey 1 as the best comics movie ever. They still didn't do "The Punisher" justice. That shit should...- God

Whats Gas where you are?
$4.39/gal (premium) I think regular was around 3.97. I wish my last name was "Rockefeller" and I had multiple foundations that each held up to 9% interest (so the owner of the shares is not public information) in ExxonMobil AND Chevron giving me a controlling stake at the pump. God, I'm in...- God

Truth hurts - Find an investor for your project to get signed.
Getting signed is the first step. The second step is dealing with internal politics in within the label. That's a totally different game. You survived Level 1 in the music game. It's like "Welcome to Level 2". -
Truth hurts - Find an investor for your project to get signed.
I don't have enough time to repudiate everything you guys basically said, but here's it on the whole. When I have some time I can be a little more detailed. 2good: There's self-defeatism in your posts. Whether it is justified or not is not "Satan's" problem. You're supposed to come...
