    Default All it takes is a rapper to make something known..

    I was just thinking that...

    I remember Back in the day.. Swisher products we not know.. a rapper talks about it.. everyone follows.

    Motorola Startac... rappers starting sweating the Small Flip Phone Idea.. everyone follows....

    Big Wheels... People start to follow...

    Patron.. people start to follow...

    Among other things. But I think HIP HOP is the biggest marketing tool right now.


    So, If you have a product.. put some $$$ aside to pay a rapper... and Ill bet you will do good.

    Sad shit.

    yea And I can remember Mc Donalds saying that they will pay if someone put them in a rhyme.

    I don't think anyone took the offer, although I am not sure why not, shit ther is a THUG selling body armor and vitiam water, go figure.

    Seagrams paid Petey Pablo to mention their name in one of his songs, I think its a regular practice now. "Pass the Courvoisier"
