only idiots fall for this... those desperate to get on
never in history has this amounted to anyone getting anything... EVER
if you are going to pay to perform... pay to open for an established artist... PERIOD... that way you at least have real fans that show up to see rap... and also you can splice together your shows with the main artist and put out a blog of the event...
after a few of these you can start listing who you opened for, have flyers with your name poppping up, everytime a major artist comes to your city, you are there too...
but paying to perform WITH nobodies, FOR nobodies is a fukking scam and it's been a scam for decades
