“For every one Kendrick, there’s 20 ‘Lil’s’” - Q-Tip Great conversation 🏆

[@KColonelSanders405]

Bruh that shit is sad but true as hell

[@danielhoskins4690]

“…and those ‘Lils’ keep the lights on.” Even sadder.

[@CaressLorthaya]

I love how Q Tip can just sit there in all of his greatness and be so humble all while being a whole legend of Hip Hop. I love to see it.

[@bigdaddy2343]

Hip-hop fans are cowards. They are afraid to take risks and rock some Qtip or Pharrell styles. Afraid what other niggas in the hood will say. Afraid to say "yo I fuck with jazz and classic rock n roll" Then you see these whiteboys out here dressing like hip-hop, gothic (I think that's what it is) heavy metal, or in sports jerseys, or dressing like some skaters. I admire that about white boys they can say I like heavy metal, I like 80s rap, I like techno music etc.

Hoffa gets all my respect for having Q Tip on his show. Black podcast over Late Night TV. Very vivrant! Interview 😂😂

[@DEEVIL]

Reminds me of what Gipp said on drink champs. He said something like "these labels give these kids stupid amounts of money so they don't even want to talk to OGs. Why would I listen to you when I got more money than you?" Using money to keep the ignorant ignorant.

[@seldomsceen]

These comments show how easily people can forget about ppl these days and how short a memory ppl have today. Q-Tip has always been intelligent and on point with his commentary..hasn't changed one bit

Hood niggas is the WORST. Judgin errrybody!!

Excellent discussion. Q-tip is one of the most selfless individuals in hip-hop. He put on so many people that went on to become legends and has never once bigged himself up or bragged about it. Always kept it humble.

This is exactly why we started our own private musician's network, where songwriters, artists, producers, lawyers, A&r, and executives have come together to recreate the architecture of success in the music business. It's a worldwide collective that you must apply for and be talented enough to enter, but everyone collaborates, lands placements, records each other's albums, helps with marketing etc.

Give the people details...enough with the vague shtt, this is basically flossing. I really hate this shtt, it's the same shtt Kevin Heart, Khaled, Ross do...fake ass inspirational shtt. Enough...stop telling these young black men how dope you are...tell them how you did it or how to get in contact with you or the steps or shut tf up

[@thebillboard500club]

@@shotarokaneda7525 Or how about you just take two seconds to research something? Maybe go to my account and see that we mention the process of applying. What happened to the days where people took their own intiative? I'm not selling you anything, so I don't have to do anything other than what I did, which was explain that we have our own collective. I would encourage people to create their own collective as well, not just join ours.

[@officialjpyro84]

@@thebillboard500club I salute you. I've built my brand off of learning and making the correct steps. I came in an era where we sold music out of the trunk or walked in stores, barcodes; etc. I've seen a lot people loose it all dang near because they didn't have these vital gems. I wish people would stop being lazy, complacent and get off they ass and grind and learn. We got the tools to do it. Also, I am going to check out your business when I get time. I am always willing to see what can help and then help give back. Salute 🙏🏿💪🏿 - Jésen Pyro

Grown men talking right here...everybody relaxed spirit and posture, facts getting spit, everyone's opinion getting there and discussed in a nuanced way...no loud over talk..active listening no feminine energy..love seeing this from our people man because the narrative about us black men is the exact opposite and we can't do this. Salute!!!

[@bugattirari9916]

The legacy will come with the independent route. No record company today will invest that money or time in a new artist. As the A&R the question is for you and what side you stand on being in the business. 99% of the artist coming in knows nothing.
