Russell Simmons' Address

[Mondo]

Anybody else ever looked back and said damn if only I had been prepared that coulda been my shot. I know alotta people say gettin into the game is a one shot thing and you better take it but I done had bout 6 shots this summer and blew all of em because I didnt have my music on me. Then there is the time when Coco probably the most famous radio personality in Detroit asked me if I had a cd to give her and I did.. but she gave it back to me and said it has to be clean. Ive performed at many clubs around the state and sold hundreds of cds and my buzz is growing and growing but Im still not where I want it to be, so anybody got Russell Simmons' address?

Imma just put a cd in his mailbox

[Destructive Criticism]

Russell Simmons is a dick, he'll probably sick the hounds on you if you get his address and show up.

[Mondo]

Ill risk that if my cd makes it in the box

[RGC]

Who's troll account is this? It's pretty good.

[Comatosis]

The sig says it all.

[Veinz]

My buddy met Russell and auditioned for him on spot. He said dude was super cool and liked my dude's rhymes. He gave him his personal info and told him to send more music ASAP. So they went to the studio that day and tried to throw some shit together and sent it. They never heard back.

Wow, Russell truly is a dick.

[Adam Sheist]

I think the songs might've been rushed and/or wack.

[thwak]

What sway does russell even have now anyway?

He hasn't been in the record industry for atleast 5 years IIRC.

[Maffro]

Why do you post everything in bold?

[Mondo]

Russell has what u call the money to finance the situation..he has never been the one to be hands on..That was Rick Rubin.. I dont need style tips..I need a financing officer

[Mondo]

do not question me.....ever!!!

[thwak]

And you think russell will actually do anything for you?

He hasn't given a shit about the record industry in years. He makes more money off of his clothing lines and credit cards now than he has ever made off of the recording industry.

Honestly, the recording industry is so fucked by this point you're better off actually getting your shit together by yourself and promoting yourself online and locally. The days of you getting signed to a label and promoted are done my friend.

Hell the only label I could think of that's willing to look into new talent is bad boy, and unless you're a white girl willing to do sexual favors for puffy you aint getting signed.

[Mondo]

Thats kinda true, but alot of the new artists are all signed... Drake signed wit Young Money, Soulja Boy can say he did it himself, but if Mr Calipark didnt sign em there would have been no Crank Dat craze, Roc Nation givin people a platform..Im just tryna get a distribution deal or sumthin...I dont need a 100% promotion and all that, I just need enough to get my ass on the BET Awards... even though TV dont even play videos anymore unless your name Taylor Swift or Hannah Montana

Dude if you want to get into the music industry jut to get on the BET awards, I suggest you start re-thinking your career path.

Because at your age, that shit aint happening.

thwak drops knowledge.

[Mondo]

NIGGA Thats not my only goals, Im just sayin..once you get to the BET Awards, you pretty much made it, and its up to you capitalize on it.. Just think about it, you are well known in a room wit every hot artist and producer in the room, thats networking central

and what do you mena at my age? Im 22...If I got there next year Id still have done it years before the most popular artists of today did it

Most people dont pop until their late 20s early 30s... Imma pop before my 24th birthday

Yes, you're 22 and haven't done jack shit.

There are people on this board who are around your age and have done more than you. They make actually do something in the music industry. Hell shad's around your age and he's fucking signed to a record label.

But you? You haven't done shit. You expect russel simmons to be your fairy godmother or something?

Re-think your life.

[Veinz]

lol thwak is ruthless

also, lol @ the tags once again

[Destructive Criticism]

ITT: Trolls trolling trolls.

I havent done Jack shit??? are you sure bout that? I dont give a fuck who is signed to a record label, God Bless him and may he prosper, You know how many people have been signed? That dont mean shit, You know how many people got records out who didnt grind at all, they just knew the right people? You obviously dont know shit about the music industry, its all about who you know

I have only been seriously doin this for a year and Im already performing in clubs around the city networkin wit muhfuckas, I gotta show on the 27th.. you welcome to come, my single will be on the radio throughout Michigan before my birthday (May 11th) its called Im Fresh. so before you try to put me down, know that Im on the bubble...just waitin to POP!!!! and Ill be sure to thank you at the BET awards bitch

[Rashad McMahon]

You're both right in a lot of ways, and you're both really wrong in a lot of ways. I wouldn't know where to begin so I won't.

I just want to say, thwak, I'm not signed to a record label, I signed a publishing deal for my production/songwriting with an Entertainment Group, it's not necessarily the same thing. And Mondo, I wish you were a little bit more humble and realistic with your situation. Just sayin.

[Wrath]

Holy shit, thwak changed the game.

[Comatosis]

Damn, thwak's going all out.

[Mondo]

Fuck a Thwak, He has no idea what he is talkin about, I should re-think my life because other people are so called "further" in the industry then me.. sounds like a great plan

where was eminem at in 98??? not even signed.. so he shoulda just gave up because Memphis Bleek had already been on tour with Jay-Z and we all know how Memphis Bleek ended up selling ALL THOSE RECORDS

Oh and 50 Cent should have never released GRODT... He shoulda just gave up because Drag On was already featured on The Ruff Ryder Compilation and on DMX second album!

great logic WAK

[Mondo]

lmao thwak got him mad, dude even forgot to turn it all in bold lmao

thwak got you, son

Wow I didnt bold? That sure means he makes a relevant point

[Destructive Criticism]

I think we finally have a member who (dare I say it) is more Niggerish than Rashad. Congrats, MondIllPharoah. You win chicken, because you can just steal a bike.

Im guessin you were bored so you just decided to post something, WAY TO PASS THE TIME!

[Destructive Criticism]

lemme clue you in on something. that's about 95% of TRS posts, TBQH.

[Rashad McMahon]

Yeah, this is true.

[RGC]

Yeah there's really only three types of posts.

1. the boredom post (vast majority).
2. the attention seeking post (thwak and occassionaly others).
3. the asking for help post (mostly ares).

[RGC]

And the check my music posts.

[Mondo]

Alex Ovechkin cant lace up Sidney Crosby's boots!

Don't get me started.

[RGC]

Yo I'm fuckin Canadian and I'd take Ovie over Crosby any day.

[Comatosis]

Shad is "niggerish"? I guess our definition of that word is different, because that's not at all how I see Shad. And no, this isn't just a white boy looking for the opportunity to drop the n-bomb and get away with it. <_<

Lol, don't entertain DC, he just looks for a reason to say my name in every post.

[Sik Wit It]

lol @ mondo

[Destructive Criticism]

Yeah it was a joke, in fact...haven't we been joking like that on Shad for a long time now? I'm pretty sure we have. I know I'm not the only person who says that.

And no, it isn't me just looking to say the word Nigger, I can say it as much as I like. Of course, using discretion is key...because if I do that shit with people I don't know IRL, Imma get my ass kicked.

Shad knows what the fuck I'm talking about.

Quit putting my name in your mouth, Coma. It looks like you try to take every opportunity to share your disdain for me, and frankly I don't understand it. I really never talk shit to you, nor even bring you up for that matter....so I don't understand where that shit comes from.

[Mondo]

how did this thread turn into the Benzino and Eminem beef?

HE SAID NIGGER!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mondo]

i get endorsements

I don't think Coma meant anything by it lol.

[Comatosis]

Damn, someone can hold a grudge around here.

[Mondo]

fuck all this group therapy shit

[Destructive Criticism]

What grudge? I don't have one....

back on topic (sort of):

What is the general opinion of Kimora Lee around here? I honestly think she's a cunt, and weird looking....opinions?
