How does a up and coming rapper get connected in his city?

[Bugsmoran]

You have to pay for that, fam.
Name a direct, honest 100 plays to 1 mil jump...without cac blog/playlist/collab/fake views/cosign...unless breh has heavy camera work and a lot of original ideas, even that won't work. The Coli hasn't blown anybody up..We're honest haters.
KTT nikkas and their plants in here, are dishonest follower/supporters.
They have no problem with fake numbers, getting extorted, having writers, using stage age, and cooking your story....ONLINE.
That takes capital and a rapport, hiring a nikka like @3Rivers and @ba'al to make memes, somebody like @ISO to get your name in the right heads, and a @RichYung to make sure it moves smoothly. Nobody "just uploads a song"...it takes a team to promote that, multiple fb pages, and girls fukking with your shyt.

Man you can just shoot a video in your grandmas crib and if somebody that's well connected in the music business sees it and loves it you'll have a record deal before u know it

 

[Will Ross]

I would suggest you do the online thing it’s better for social awkward dudes.

that's not how that situation really worked, and dude was ALREADY KNOWN IN THE STREET.

Keef was in the streets and his music was popular locally in Chicago w youth.

I'm just saying you don't need a fancy video

 

[Formerly Black Trash]

Then I won't need them then lol

I ain't trying to look cool to be seen with nikkas or set myself to have nikkas in my pockets

This maybe seems like im young minded or like im easily influenced but when dudes I went to high school with 5 years ago who live right up the street from me have the connects I gotta try to get in before the links dries up. For example some dudes I know in passing just got signed by gucci and they was broke last year. They came up over night because they was in with one of the big dudes around here. I'm not a person caught up in fake shyt or image but I think I would be stupid not to try and take advantage of the attention on people from neighborhood. I legit see some of the bigger dudes in rap in my neighborhood just because

Key word is connects
You can’t just make them
I’m guessing them dudes just naturally knew them nikkas
If you don’t have them then you have to have hard work plus luck or just cash
If Not a combo of all three

Yeah dudes think it’s easy as “uploading a song” maaaaaaan nah.... you’ll be howling at the moon with fire on hands that nobody will hear. You gotta get put around the right people. And get ya shyt heard by the right people. Folks still think running to SXSW is gonna get them plugged smh

And how do I do that

 

[Indiglow Meta (R$G)]

And how do I do that

make yourself interesting with controversy aided by shocking images.

 

[1-8-7-Skillz]

poof*
One of the 1st songs I want to put out. Im getting it mixed tonight at my studio session.

Ill post more after the studio tonight too

lol I made this to try to appeal to young nikka s

Dont see anything breh

 

[Boogie]

@Prynce you in the 6 huh?

 

[Intricate Guh]

1. Post some music again @Prynce

2. Girls gotta fukk wit your shyt. Making music for young nikkas does nothing because nikkas are gonna play what the females want to hear. Girls singing your songs on your IG is what breaks most new artists, Kylie, Sumeralla, Nicki, RiRi, etc.

3. They already know what you want. Everybody comes to them to try to get some clout tokens

 

[RichYung]

And how do I do that

shyt NOW? Sadly gonna be shyt outside of the music also lol. Anything else advice wise is a bag.

 

[NORFOLKSOWN]

you gotta work a bunch of circles Even nikkas who in the streets network my dude shyt. Honestly just be who you are and stay true to that and promote what you do but dont overdo it. six degrees of separation everybody know somebody. the nikka at wendys might not know migos but he might know their engineer.

Don't go the internet route if you're pressed to make it big fast.. Because you (likely) won't

Now if you know a YT personality you can try and get in contact with em especially during a live show/podcast and direct people to your shyt if you sounded interesting in general earlier

Otherwise if you're going the old fashion route.. The game far as I know ain't change much.. Like always, Lisa can help you out.. She been through it in your exact city to know what it takes
