^^This. For me, this is where the real value is at. Building relationships with your "core" group which will lead to a more consistent amount of retention. (people who come back)

RIGHT.
...the shit never gets old, though...
cats been RECYCLING basically the SAME EXACT SHIT for 20+ years.
you know what? i think it's MORE than just "entertainment"; this LYING shit...i think music goes A LOT deeper into the psyche / consciousness of it's listeners.
...people thinking that "entertainment" is pure harmless fun is one of the most DAMAGING concepts that one can believe...
i guess what i'm trying to say is; MUSIC PROGRAMS YOU.
sometimes DIRECTLY, sometimes INDIRECTLY.
sometimes in a positive way, sometimes in a negative way.
sometimes for a short duration, sometimes for a long duration.
sometimes consciously, sometimes sub-consciously.
anyways, what i'm getting at is that there's A LOT of negative PROGRAMMING that is circulating the air-waves...and it's crazy because people think it's JUST MUSIC...naw man; maybe for the LAYMAN it is...

LYING is only ENTERTAINING when you don't have to PAY THE CONSEQUENCES for lying.
when the lie affects YOU or one of your LOVED ONES, all the sudden it ain't so entertaining no more -
---------- Post added at 05:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:33 AM ----------
and that's what makes this shit so corny...just a whole bunch of liars and people that request the lie; living in two, totally different worlds.
motherfukcers will believe a LIE from some corny-ass rapper and that same corny-ass rapper that you're buying the FANTASY from doesn't even know you exist; probably won't even respond to your emails - buy you sittin' there believing (and supporting) this guy...GET THE FUKC OUTTA HERE.

Lol I saw dudes other video saying he made $3000 a month and he considered that good for him. That's 36k annual income which is shit. Can't get anywhere making 36k/year - probably make that much as a manager at McDonalds.

1000% TRUTH
One has to always keep in mind the big investors behind these multinational corporations that run the major labels, publishing companies, publicity firms, touring/promotion outfits, Hollywood studios, etc...invest billions of dollars into the entertainment not for financial revenue (these guys CONTROL the global monetary system, they can give a F about the little pennies from the entertainment game especially with its extreme high failure rate) but for a variety of agendas surrounding social engineering ranging from culture creation to good old fashion distraction of the masses.
Its much easier to keep control of the world resources when the average 18-42 year old male can tell you more about Jay-Z discography than he can about the IMF or IBS. Shyt, a large swath of the population can't even tell you who they're local congressional representative is but they can sure give u the latest 411 on their favorite reality TV show down to the minute details without blinking a eye. 'Entertainment' is the number 1 tool used to dumb down and blind the everyday Joe and its a deliberate effort. Take it from someone that's been in the belly of the beast on a high corporate level (not creative level)

Working for yourself is the best - no 1 boss to answer to that has the final say on whether you get paid or not, work whenever you want, vacation whenever you want, beautiful.
BUT
It takes balls especially if you have real responsibilities (wife/kids/house/etc) because there is no 2 week check safety net underneath you. No risk - No Reward, gotta go where the water is DEEP if you want to launch big ships

Know plenty of people who make about 10k less than that here in Southern California and still living. It's not ideal, but it'd doable.

If you don't make a lot of money... it's probably your fault.
Other people come here and don't even speak English and roll around in Lexus's, blow $1,000's at the casino and put their kids through college and live in lavish homes.
How are they able to do that?
There's a chick here from some small country that said someone woke her up in the middle of the night and grabbed her by the arm and told her that she was going to America and she got one last hug from her Moms and was put on a RAFT! and made it here... on a RAFT! She said her Moms cried but helped to put her on the RAFT! she drives a $85,000 BMW and graduated from the University of Washington. She has two little kids and they're straight A students. She said she didn't speak English when she got here, she said she learned it from other kids and taught the other people that made it here on the raft.
Is the reason you don't make a lot of money your fault? If not, who's fault is it?
She's one of the nicest people here and one of the smartest... her husband doesn't like her talking to black guys though, lol. The myth is rampant.

I was in a focus group with another dude that looked like he was doing pretty decent. He said "I worked in the corporate world for 4 years... and that ish was not for me", lol. He said he saw how many people would be stopped at those little coffee stands and how many people showed up to work with coffee and he said he QUIT his corporate job and started to deliver coffee to the coffee stands for cheap. He said word got around that there was a cheap coffee guy and other stands started to contact him... he said he makes double what he was making in the corporate world and works 1/4 of the time. He said he takes the coffee around in the morning and he's off for the rest of the day.
Like Legal Dollarz said though... most wouldn't strike out on their own like that... (I wouldn't, lol). I make a pretty decent "living" though.
The next person that complains about rappers not buying their beats should throw their MPC through the window. You need a different angle on your hustle. The make / sell beats thing has attracted to many "gold diggers". "There's gold in them there beatz!"

Do you make enough money to be saying things like this though?
I used to think this way but honestly are YOU driving a nice enough BMW to be saying things like this?

She said she didn't deserve the car, lol. She said her husband made her buy it for Christmas as a gift to herself. She said he did their taxes and everything and calculated up their income and she said he told her that she was going to buy herself a nice car. She said she's scared to drive around in it because she thinks somebody is going to rob her. You have to remember where she came from, she doesn't see the "necessity" for super expensive things. She had a $45,000 Benz Wagon before that BMW. She said her husband told her to get that too. She said she didn't want / deserve that one either, lol. She's really shy but she talks to me for some reason. Brings me cookies n shit, lol.
One day she was with her husband and she pretended not to know me... he must say bad things about black people at home or something.

As much as this is a bad thing, I see it as a good one. If it wasn't for this 'social engineering' (**** If I care, honestly it's just getting rid of the stupid people anyway) the music industry would really BE dead = no future job in music for me.
