"The Art Of The Sellout"
Now what ever happened to self respect and having morals as a human in this country? I mean money rules the world in every way but is losing your dignity worth a couple million bucks? Im talking about artist in the hip hop game who sellout and lose total control on what type of music they chose to do. Im not going to say any names because then people who read this would just say Im hating. Now what happens when a record label comes up to that artist and tells him that they will give him two million dollars as long as he gives them all the rights to his music. That meaning they can market him anyway they want even if that includes putting a dildo in his mouth as an album cover. I do understand that money can change the way you live but i suppose it would be harder to live with yourself after the fact. Lets put it like this, would you go on national tv and tell the whole world that you hate your race for ten million dollars? 90% of these "rappers" in the game right now are "sellouts" and that is the main reason they are getting push from their major labels. For those rappers that didn't sellout on themselves are struggling to make a living in the industry because they wont be let in. People wont give them the time of day and its sad because those are the rappers that can give you the most. Lets hope things start to change and the rappers that didn't sellout stay the same and make the music for the greater good and not for the money, cars, and hoes. Until then hip hop is gone.
