It could go both ways, I know people that are paid with a great job that still sell weight (habit), so in extension I could see some rappers in the game still selling. On the otherside of the coin, its just lyrics and most wouldn't be able to sell cuz they're too busy.
Selling chronic is like selling stuff on Ebay, a straight no-brainer if you're street smart, so do rappers still sell chron? If anything this is the most plausible. Selling Crack, coke, etc, probably not, mostly cuz the hustle is a little more demanding (time + energy).
I betcha rappers that have to wait years between their albums come out because of their labels marketing machine still sell something on the side. Especially the ones who don't do mixtapes. It's not that hard to believe.
Cappa is the biggest hustler outta the crew...I remember I wanted an autograph at a Ghost show and he goes, "na man, only if you buy my new shit." I was like how much, he said $7 i was I got a 10 he said let me get it, I was like no change Cappa, he was like na man I aint got none...lol what a fucking liar I saw kids giving him dollar bills and shit. Anyway I bought the Struggle from him, and he signed my Pillage.
Trust me I know not everybody down with WU is RICH, they all do something apart from music. If anything, Meth and RZA are the only ones who dont. Ghost got paper, but what are all his tracks about?...He has a fucking passion for that shit lol. And Rae, he is just cooking up some marvelous shit all the time. :chef:
maybe they rap about that sort of thing so that the people that are still on the grind can relate to their music.
You can never have enough money in this world.Quote:

Anyway this is a stupid question and a stupid thread...no beef againts the starter, just the idea.
I don't know them, I don't do drugs, so I don't know or care if they sell or not. But they made good music. They still make good music. Isn't that all that matters?
"Living up to what you say on records, it's all entertainment. Everybody in thier fuckin right mind knows you can talk about shooting somebody on the record, but mothafucka ain't funna really gonna do it, unless you just stupid. This is entertainment. We make records. That's all it is. This is like our fuckin jobs" -Dr. Dre
Let that quote answer your question
the whole purpose of rapping is not to sell drugs??!Quote:

Wu tang fans in general don't know what they want, i seen dudes say it on this forum in the past, and I'm starting to believe it more and more.
