Ticking time before YMCMB overshadows YMCMB like G-Unit.

Maybe this is why they signed that Isiah Rashad character instead. Similar style
I have a problem with TDE seeming to SELF PROMOTE their BRAND as opposed to the artist themselves
i always see TDE featuirng Kendrick Lamar
or TDE featuring blah blah
i dont get that COLLECTIVE. feel
seems like a bunch of bosses running a camp where the artists are expendable
am i wrong??

Biggest example of industry plant I can think of. Magazine covers and aint even put out a decent song anywhere LMAOOOO
They trolling you. People are buying it, I mean this is the age of being told what to like and people become fans before they hear any music. Just liking what other people say they like.
I listened to dude. He tries to spit fast in funny voices and not say anything. Pretty much what it boils down to.

if he's successful at what he's doing the music industry will try sign him and if they can't they'll destroy him. can't have a successful independent black artist running around. it's not a good look for the music industry. they'll have a campaign to destroy him and it'll work. they'll say all sorts of things and even make up lies to destroy him.

That's because he BEEN signed a deal. He's been signed for at least a year. Astroturf strategy, etc.

So hes been signed to a major since 09?
that was even before I heard of him, I became a fan in like January 2010 thinking dude is on his independent grind and it wasnt until the summer when he had that huge buzz because of Kush & OJ that he announced he signed to Atlantic

never heard this but this shyt is amazing. that haunting ass beat...that chorus...that imagery...shyt is
Because a lot of new generation fans are "against the machine" & are more prone to be attracted to an artist who has an "organic" or more "real" struggle coming up as opposed to being manufactured...
It's marketing genius in its purest form because fans really feel like they're rooting for one of their own...

But how many more times will that work before people eventually start seeing through the BS though, like theres no way in hell ANY new independent artist who just dropped a mixtape/album this year and doesnt even really have a lot of buzz outside of the world of bloggers should be going on tour with Eminem and collabing with Lil Wayne.. this whole Chance thing seems blatantly obvious that hes being backed by a major label if u ask me

They won't see it though... the average fan is dumb as fukk which is why artists are marketed towards the "commoner". We're talking about the same idiots who believe every word their favorite artist says without one shred of evidence, no proof, just word of mouth in a country that elected George Bush Jr. *TWICE* & believes Trinidad James got signed for $2 Million. The new "Organic-Major" approach labels have been using just uses misdirection to make fans feel as though that artist was against the odds & people always love the underdog...
Have you been on Twitter & Facebook lately? People in general are probably 10x dumber & lazier then they were just 20 years ago. You have people who post up rumors from non-credible news websites & pass them off as facts for "Likes" & "Re-Tweets" without ever stopping to Google if what was said in the article is in fact true.
For example... when Adrian Peterson's 2 year child who he had never even met died people were spreading the picture of him & his other son around the internet photoshopped with wings & a halo with hundreds of thousands of RT's & shares yet nobody stopped to consider that the kid pictured in the photo was not the 2 year old that passed.
Never underestimate the level of ignorance people have...
