thing is most underground cats hold a mind set. its not that peoples dont wanna blow up and get paid off their effort, its that peoples are are more maternal to the culture, and feel whats produced,written,executed by them stays with them for them if that makes any sense. peeps dont want 3%off every sale...sure comercial cats get more for the shows they do, but thats just to lubricate their rectums a little more for the next dick.
not many heads got 12000 to print their own shit either, but i agree that you gotta start some where. even if you only pushing 20 albums a week that you printed on your boys pc, you still making more money on sales in a week than them cheese balls on the radio. some people have no better options than to rap, some peoples no nothing but to rap, eat sleep pisss, drink and shit rap, and if you good at it who the f*** cares.
each to his own. if the ambition is there and the soldiers are mobilzed accordingly it will innevitably manifest into something bigger.
make the people aware.. underground underground blah blah blah.
if you dope people will buy your shit.
dont sign your blood sweat and tears just cos it sounds like a reasonable option.
one root for underground dudes to look into is a joint venture through a major, wich entitles you to fifty percent of every thing sold once the costs of the label have been recouped. you keep your master and basically what ever you contribute they match and vice versa. and if you dont have the doe and they think it is a worth while risk, they will endure the innicial cost of printing and promotion. the dope thing with that is that you are not bound to the label and still have the freedom to print your own shit on the side aswell as scout internation distribution if you so feel fit. so if you release one album and push it hard as f*** and get them tongues wagging, by the time you ready to release your 2nd joint it will give you the oppertunity to think obout taking that root...i dunno just a thought
...or not....
