You deserve a shot. I honestly clicked play expecting to laugh. I have your shyt on repeat right now. You got something. Real shyt. Coming from a life long hip hop fan. Find a manager that’s as passionate about your music as you are.

The manager is right. Nobody listening to a 20 track album from an unknown rapper. Your wasting your time and money recording a bunch of songs in the studio without a plan to monetize them. If you cant push 1 record successfully what makes you think you can push 20? Start thinking like a business cause as an independent thats what you are. Don't hit the studio unless you got a plan to make that money back from whatever you record. Focus on one marketable record and push the hell out it.

I know you're using hyperbole to make a point. LOL. But ain't nobody (nobody, meaning me) releasing a 20 track anything fam. I'm more of an EP, probably 8 tracks at most kind of artist when it comes to making projects.
I understand the nature of the business - that you need at least one record to catch on then strike while the iron is hot. I GET that. I'm not opposed to that. And I have records like that at my disposal. What I am opposed to is being SOLELY single focused. Which is basically the type of shyt dude was on.
What good is having a single if you don't have a follow up or more material to put out there? Okay. I record/perform this one song...then what? I've seen this movie before with multiple artists. An artist comes out of nowhere with a huge single/record, said artist gets hella push (depending on their label situation), then they fizzle out just as quickly as they blew up. Wash, rinse, repeat.
I'm looking at shyt from all angles and assessing what's the best course of action for longevity and so far...mmmm. I'm taking multiple strategies under consideration. But focusing on singles and singles ONLY...

@postnutclarity if you haven’t got anything on the plate, you should give it a shot. By the sounds of things, you don’t like it. But you’ll know for sure if you try this showcase thing he’s talking about.
Most artist make money from shows. Or that’s how I make most of mine. But bump all that selling X amount of tickets and shyt; you’re the artist not the street team.
Tell him, put you in the roster and give you 30+ mins for the show and do your best and focus on performing.
