Promotion = Success

[RoyalPurple]

My theory is that anyone in any genre can make it big if given enough promotion & radioplay/online streams/plays
if you stick your product all up n da videos then anyone can blow up.

kinda like cult of personality.

full support of mainstream. everybody can make it.

agree or disagree?

That's more or less it.

Example: 50 Cent is a shitty rapper and people might remember the huge hype before his first album came out. The rest is history.

fat joe went interesting route too. from d.i.t.c. to the pop charts.

same with noreaga. started hardcore ny rap and became a reggaeton artist called "p.a.p.i."

VERY TRUE

Promotion = a means.

Success = an end.

Who is paying for the marketing/promotion? You need to have money to do profitable advertising

If you aren't successful yet you don't have much money to do big promotion to get you known on a bigger scale. It's not that easy

[muzaliny]

Success is a journey, not a destination

[Proletarian]

Success is a journey, not a destination

Means = actions

End = goal


Are you saying that the artists OP is referring to don't promote their art as a means of becoming 'successful'?

[RoyalPurple]

If ones overhypes and gloryfies something and makes it mainstream
