My first thread yay! I've been on here for months and still learning this site! Uh!!......
For the past few months I've been discouraged and depressed off and on when it comes to music (I write and money keeps me from doing what I want to do honestly). My nephew called me yesterday morning after seeing my FB post and said that I need to not just record my new music and post that up but I need to post my old music. He said that there is absolutely no reason for me to not be where I want to be or more than half way there. He also said that "if Young Thug and all of these terrible rappers can get on the radio from the raggedy sh*t they're posting and it takes off then why can't you?"
Problem is, my old mixtape stuff was from my 12th grade year and my 1st/2nd year of college. I was recording in my bedroom at that age. Obviously I don't like the quality.
He also said that when everyone hears how far you've come then that's when you post up the new music. What do you fellas/ladies think?
Also, I was rapping to instrumentals (which I love doing by the way) but do people still rap to them? I'm not spending money when I get it just to put on mixtapes. All my good beats are for the real albums I'm planning on.
Are rapping to instrumentals a turn off for you?
Any advice is nice! Muah! <3
