General Discussion / Looking For Caramel And Ray Gunz

« on: April 08, 2013, 05:02:49 PM »

Greetings.
A few months back I saw the Caramel and Ray Gunz album (from around 2005 i think) at Musica in Rosebank. unfortunatly I was a bit low on cash at that point and came back months later only to find that it was not there anymore. does anyone know where I can possibly get it.... Even if its an email adress to somebody selling it would be much appreciated... Oh and I'm based in JHB. Thank you in advance.

*I think it safe enough to trust that they are people in AG who know of Caramel and Ray Gunz... right?

No ofence an all but jumpin on the DJ bandwagon is probly an insult to DJ's who been perfectin there skills for years and years, how would you like it if a dj came out and said, "f*** this Dj'ing thing is nt working, so let me just get a few beats and write down some lyrics"
Peeps are quick to say this rap shit don't sell before they put maximum effort into it. Do you ever hear a lawyer say, "eish after 7 years of studying, I'ma be an accountant and push this lawyer thing on the side?"... that's the mentality that's killing the music industry and chasing the young, fresh and dope acts away.
I would try to advertise the album better, perform more at different places, put out a few videos, hound the radio stations and Television channels and try to put the album in an easily accesible music store. I mean don't get me wrong, Rituals is still dope but do you think the average fan in a bording school in pretoria is gna be able to get there? Na, she/he's gonna try bootlegg it from a friend of his/hers. However if he/she were able to go into one of the MANY Musicas and Look and Listens and Reliable Music stores, that's an album sale right there. It's not that nobody wants to buy the album, its just that many people can't easily get access to a place where they can buy it.
Then you look at other places, I mean FREAK, South Africa alone is a huge place (around 50 million people deep...compare that to 2 million in Botswana) with heads who'd feel The Federation in all 9 provinces, (Plus Lesotho and Swaziland), team up with Pioneer Unit or something and go out there, market yourselves, PERFORM, go on tour, get your album and your sound to every head in the country/Southern Africa/ AFRICA.
At times, we may hate our L-Tido's, DA LES's and them, but they put maximum effort and go all out to get into the market and present themselves to potential fans. The job doesn't end after the studio.

Oh yeah, and I went out and I bought the album, first thing on this months shopping list...It is f***IN dope, I bump it every mornin. On the mic and on beats you got the skills to make money, now you need to get off that Virtual DJ Software you playin around with and push that real hip hop you talk about!
