Engineer. Rappers gotta do too much to get six figures.

shyt stem engineering no fukking contest. The type of rap I would want to do won't get me much money and I refuse to be a stereotype to get money. Plus engineering has a much more secure future than rapping would have.

Before anyone starts knocking down rapping.
As a successful rapper you will get access to things in life (in terms of materialism/hedonism) that that someone with a STEM degree never could.
And because of your famous status it will make opening other avenues of income (clothing, games, brands, hell even institutions) that much easier, see Dre with Beats. The STEM guy knows a whole lot more about sound engineering and how to best design the headphones but it was Dre's face that made and received the money.
Can you imagine if Jason with 2 STEM degrees came out and said "Buy these headphones guys, they're great. Trust me here I have TWO degrees I've done the research." You could twist it to become a funny marketing campaign but either way the guy is getting laughed out of the investors meeting.
If you play you Cards right, you could end up like Jay-Z, Diddy, Dre etc...
Or DMX.
On the other hand a STEM degree is less bottleneck in terms of financial success (min 6 figures) and if you play your cards right you could end up becoming someone like Elon Musk.
That should have been the question in the OP would you rather be a billionaire rapper or Elon Musk.
On topic though it depends how you go about things. Both have the potential for massive gains.

Would I rather be a boring person that works in business or would I rather be an artist to express myself to the world and change it?

I'd be a rapper, but try and do with Chamillionaire did and fund STEM programs in charter and public schools for poor and black students.
Yeah, cause thats what "rappers" in 2016 do, change the world. :stopitkobe:
they change more than most boring ass imagination lacking STEM majors do.

You can change the world if you're famous even if you have a few hundred fans those fans will pass on your ideas to next generations born from them
Imagination is something unique to the person, not the occupation. :flabbykid:they change more than most boring ass imagination lacking STEM majors do.
No one that has "fans" has changed the world.
