You're not a rapper if you're not signed to a label

[Nobodyknows]

At least in my opinion

That just makes you someone that raps.

Being a rapper is an occupation. Just because you do something doesn't make you that person.

A demo is the equivalent to a job application.

I think that's where a lot of people get it wrong and just exaggerate their title to make them seem more than they are.

Sorry @A.V.

What do y'all think of this?

facts

its just in this day and age if you can log onto youtube and make a video,any little kid can be a rapper

Just because you are signed it doesn't mean you are making money from rap.

There are unsigned acts making more money than signed guys.

OP that is the kind of thinking that keeps nikkas signing deals with people like birdman. birdbrain level thinking

This is true because anybody can just rhyme words on a beat and say they're a "rapper". But the label only applies if you're not monetizing off an official product that's backed or supported by official companies

So Snoop isn't a rapper?

If you rapped, you would definitely sign that Birdman death deal

If you write a rap, make the rap into a record, and someone pays you to perform that record or for a recording of it, guess what?

You're a rapper.
