how do I become a rapper if im trapped in a small town? I have a curse trapping me in my small town and its like impossible to succeed here 90% of people are just living on disability and poverty and there's literally 0 music industry im not even near a city that does anything with the genre its mostly stuff in atlanta and Chicago and shit
i really want to rap like gunna and nba youngboy and have songs produced by southside and tm88
what do i do? i cant not be a rapper i just dont like that reality its gay. i want to just smoke cookie and be rich riding around in a lambo in LA all day and doing shows
First of all, if you're white, just give up now, 99.9% chance it's not gonna happen.

Are you high? you have access to an insane amount of advertisement in yt,twitter, hell even twitch. Make some social media accounts to advertise yourself. Familiarize with producing software. Write some songs. Upload aforementioned songs. See the response? If good work on refining your craft. If not still refine your craft. work a part time job in the meantime or full time or whatever. move to a place that can support your career.
Jose Bell
You fucking newfag. Are you seriously that fresh off the boat that you don’t even know the basics of two dui guy?
Sorry I'm not on this shithole enough to have every meme memorized, I'll try to lurk moar this week just for you
Zachary Garcia
well I know that but I looked up like a thousand different rappers literally and every single one of them even soundcloud ones are from huge cities or near one.
it only works in huge cities even with the internet because eventually it has to be noticed by someone who can spread it really far with one post and those people dont live in small towns. it just doesn't happen unless you at least know someone who knows someone
the only person I can think of who did it is soulja boy but he did it before the internet rapping thing was even a thing and made a radio hit
if you look up rappers every single one of them is from a big city. I dont know if thats cause there's no black people in small towns or what but im sure being in a big city has a lot to do with most of them
Logan Flores
That's not true at all, just off the top of my head J Cole is from Fayetteville, NC (not far from where I live).
Jonathan Walker
Why dont you rap about your curse and shit, nigga? Since God hates you, treats you like some punk bitch, join the motha fuckin devil, know what I’m sayin? Get sick with that shit, go all in and shit, nigga. Create some sick beats and rap on that shit, fool. Man, if dont get out of that city, you gon die up in that bitch. And you know they aint gonna bury you with 50 ponds of chocolate thai, nigga.
Evan Flores
oh yeah I was talking mostly about trap rappers and mumble rappers. every single one is from atlanta, Miami, Chicago and shit like that mostly those 3 cities
William Collins
You’ll see at least two more of these threads in the next week, guaranteed.
Logan Johnson
Do you intend to be a trap or mumble rapper? That shit is kinda over-saturated right now.
Luke Lee
That nigga dj mumble is the shit.
Evan King
mumble rap emo country, that's a whole new wave bruv make sure you rap about your moldy windows
I can't say I'm a fan of that type but do what makes you happy man.
Dylan Jones
Rap is so saturated and popular nowadays that you'd have better luck booking a train ride to LA tomorrow and trying to make a living off of acting than off of rapping.
Don't either bother trying to make it if you don't have a distinct style, a good network, or both.
Alexander Price
im beautiful unique and talented im just oppressed by small town
Joseph Butler
Welp, I was bored, and it's late, so I hope you enjoyed your (You)s because I like to re-read my own comments anyway.
What's distinct in your style? It isn't lyrical shit based off the type of music you're going for. Is it instrumentation? Mood? Have you had anyone review your shit?
Aiden Martinez
0/10 stale, 0 effort there is no hope for you
Kevin Harris
Hitten them streets high on that xanny bar, bitches think im handy brah, gottA get to the city before this cracker town gets to me. My PO be proud cause i pissin cleaner than clouds. I makes excuses like bitches make lies, cant leave for the city cause god is my fav, blame that fat honky in da sky caue im a bitch.
Adrian Hernandez
Hey OP, I gave you the name Two DUI Guy; you should totally start out your online rap career as performing as Two DUI Guy.
Hudson Adams
It's 2018 not 1998, you don't have to physically move to LA or New York or Atlanta or whatever where record labels might be at. You can, today, produce and record your own tracks and upload them on a bunch of websites and apps and start your career right now.
I'm also an aspiring musician and I love living in the future. The internet and a basic computer set-up gives literally everyone an equal start. You don't have to sell your soul and sign a contract in blood to major companies that will try to control your image and your sound.
I live in some gay-ass suburbs and some kid who lives nearby got discovered by a huge k-pop group and they ended up having him produce the track for one of their major singles. I know about these 20 year old kids who started making EDM and started their own label years ago in their shit-ass farm town and now they're in LA and China and all over the world.
Sure often you look at big names in rap and music in general and you see that they live in big cities but that's only because they moved out there after the fact.
Ethan Ross
Don't get salty just because you're ignorant.
Isaiah Thomas
This.
I listen to all kinds of new indimusic on bandcamp.
Parker Davis
Your shitty rap name can be XannyBR.
Jeremiah Walker
dont rap
Tyler Phillips
Just get to the city, nigga. You sleepin.
Ian Bell
Oh look, he posted it. Again
Logan Bailey
im black and the whites are out to get me and trap me here for a minor crime plus on top of that I have a curse from god trapping me here
Angel Hill
Rap about it, nigga, get all mumbled on da motha fuckin mic, nigga.
Parker Adams
Its funny how you even believe your own lies. I did a little research and you have never had a dui. Tell us about the child pornography charges, you sick fuck.
John Thompson
It's not my intention to discourage you, but the reality is a lot of young teens and adults are trying to get into the rap game, and many don't even make it. You're competing against thousands of people who you could potentially better than or not. Many artist go unnoticed too.
Landon King
you're the same hopeless faggot that used to post on Jow Forums for months about this, right? I'm honestly surprised you're still alive
Joseph Moore
I dont want to be some huge ass rap like lil uzi I just want to be somewhat making money with music and use the money I make to invest in business ideas and produce music on the side I just want 3 careers at once
I really just want to make a good amount of money with rapping not be some millionaire rapping touring superstar
6 months in jail might help my rep too
Angel Peterson
What will your prison name be?
Jack Phillips
He's been posting this thread about leaving his town for at least 3 years.
Xavier Evans
Maybe it’s a coping mechanism, making the same post every day keeps him safe.
Ayden Wood
there has to be some way out but I cant find it because of my curse and lack of resources and knowledge
Jackson Reed
So once you make it to the city, what are your plans there?
even if there's some hidden objective or something I have to do here why cant I just do it later. why do I have to lose my entire life here. this place is literal hell its nothing but pure degeneracy and literally nothing but complete utter boredom forcing you to be a degenerate
even if I made every major change in my life possible id still get trapped here somehow god is out to get me
Elijah Harris
Sounds like you need to come to terms with this God of yours.
Evan Rodriguez
>rap >music
Those two are mutually exclusive brother.
Leo Anderson
Lol I thought this same thing. Everybody knows this guy.
