UK Rap - Recipe to Success

The US, UK argument over music has been going on an eternity. UK's anger toward the US for restricting their exposure is common. It seems we are not getting the coverage we need and are always beaten to the deals by the Americans. The simple truth is that the US market is bigger and thus there is more money to be made. Money is after all what the music business is about, right?... more about that in a minute. It's clear that the musical abilities of old Blighty is on par with the US and if one day there was to be a US, UK standoff i think it would be a draw, unless of course they went Olympic style and decided to pitch 3 Artists for every 1 of ours.... Ahem. I digress.


The thing is there may not seem a lot we can do about it. Moaning has got us nowhere, sitting around waiting for weloveukrap to deliver its promises will be a waste of time. The Only way you are going to make it on a worldwide market is if you pull your finger out your arse and do something about it because the opportunity will never come to you. Only then can you make a living out of what you love, which brings me on to my next point about money and music.
