a lot of rappers get paid up front (with an advance upon signing a recording deal), that's why they get recouped from the money comes in. you have a lot of off posts tbh

I know what a rapper gets paid... don't patronize me.



Meanwhile, folks don't buy albums, let alone going to shows.


Majority of rappers aren't selling out the seats at their shows. U saw the Lil Baby situation.

And to top that off, u still owe the label everything .


Yeah I'd rather be a electrician

Does this man have any independent thoughts? Everything he says is a regurgitation of twitter. Go to therapy, black women are in charge, we don't need more rappers we need more tradesman, etc etc.

I remember 2013 Charlamagne having independent thoughts. "Gay, straight, and Drake," wanting to suck a fart out of Patti LaBelle's ass, saying that Justin Bieber needs to be in a cold room with two guys named Hugo and Bubba to get himself straightened out.

Lots of independent thoughts.

an artist can live off an advance even if no one buys and not have to owe anything if they don't sell. that risk/loss falls on the record company, that's why they try to write such stringent contracts.
there is no getting paid as an electrician if you have no customers lol

but yeah.... people can only do what they can so i don't blame you

My Dad was pulling in mad customers as a electrician

How many electricians he have on the breakfast club,or any of his other shows?

 

[GreenGhxst]

electricians make good money. and all you need is trade school. once you're licensed, after 4-5 years of grinding you can make 6 figures for a stressless job

Working with electricity doesn't sound stressless

One mistake can kill you

They teach you how to deal with wiring and live wires... and you have PPE

they don't touch those wires bare hand my guy. electrical gloves are very safe.

 

[Ripp]

I ain’t met an electrician with a big boy Rollie yet

As of 2017 they were making $53/hr.. idk what it is now but I imagine the pay has went up

 

[bright black]

there is probably a lot of sectors where there isnt people to replace the old people doing those jobs now. They should probably just have high schools that teach all those things. That way people would have the skills even if they wont ever use them say like if they dream to be a rich rapper or whatever came true.

Sure, im just saying there are risks involved
