No I'm seriously not joking. I was checking the national charts in a magazine and they always show the UK top 10 as well and Cher Lloyd was on #1 with Swagger Jagger.
Unfortunately I'm telling the truth.

MC's put in work like that so that in a couple of years they can work with chart topping pop stars and actually eat off their music work. Its ironic given the lines you pointed out and stuff. but it is what it is, thats honestly all an MC has to work toward if they want a career in it. Artists don't eat, art doesn't pay. U gotta decide whether or not this is your job or your art.

What do you expect when half of the scene [and this board] just stick their heads in the sand and don't address the problems. I'm tired of this "Be positive, you're not allowed to talk about how shit an artist is" and the political dick sucking going on by the veterans who have to ghost produce and promote for these major label puppets just to make some real money. If 14 year old's like something, then you better believe that major labels are gonna come in and buy out everyones soul, then repackage it with a pretty face over and over again until it's been tapped bone dry.
