i been watchin the hiphop charts for awhile, and it seems the only 2 hiphop acts that get listened to alot are Runaway Statue and D-Cell, i dont mean to be a hater but those 2 dont measure up to the ubw talent like BruceWayne, Young Dogg, DEMO, just to name a few, i admit i been fortunate to be floatin around the top 10, but the MC's i mentioned should be up there and it just makes me wonder why they aint toppin the charts like they should be and instead we got artists at the top that dont got the skill they do...peace

TC...

We are still trying to establish our Rap/Hip-Hop base of artists and fans. Since it is still relatively small, it's easy for an active band to have all their relatives/friends play their songs to improve themselves in the charts. As we grow and get additional talented artists, like those you mentioned above, everyone will get more plays and it will be harder to artificially influence the charts.

Thanks for the feedback, always appreciated!!!!

Yeah, TC, I love your stuff, man. Don't beat yerself up over the small things.

It ain't where abouts in the charts you are, it's the feedback you get that's important.

OK....Group Hug Laughing

Hey I can understand why ya'll feel the way you do, but like was stated earlier, you gotta market yourself. All your friends, family members, whoever you can get to listen to your tracks will get you a better spot. I haven't been hitting the charts too hard myself, but that's my own fault. As far as D-Cell not being talented enough, I highly disagree! In fact, I really get crunk listening to their tracks, plus they from my hometown, do what you do and it will all come!

I'm just gonna assume you dudes have never heard of blackmyth and rockabitch. www.unsignedbandweb.com/blackmyth www.unsignedbandweb.com/rockabitch www.soundclick.com/blackmyth www.soundclick.com/rockabitch. Try any of those pages and if you feel like we don't belong at the top of most of these internet charts, then you can consider yourself a hater.

If you liked that check DEMO http://www.unsignedbandweb.com/music/bands/443/

Talent everywhere, reckon the music industry never really had too much to do with the reality most of us live in in the first place. Keep on keepin on. Wink
