In a recent interview with Kevin W. Reese on Hot 93.7, Papoose discussed the benefits of going the independent route.
“A record label’s not stopping you from paying for your own studio time…pressing up your own CD, and selling it to the people,” explained Pap. “The more you do it, the more notoriety you will gain as you go along. You’re not gonna start at the top, but eventually, if you keep doing it and be consistent, you’ll get there.”
“There’s a lot of advantages to being independent. You make your own money, and make the music of your choice.”
Papoose also discussed Drake and Common’s beef. “Interesting, man. Because Common is a master lyricist. And I think Drake is nice, too. It’d be interesting to see the outcome. I’m like everyone else. I’m just waiting to see what happens. To me, it’s interesting…It ain’t gonna be a walk in the park.”

I’m 1 of those 68 people who listened to your song the last 2 weeks. So you went from waiting for a Pap album to that song?
I just listened to your song. No hate. you sound just like a million other rappers I hear. What separates you from everyone else in the game? No real lyrical skills, boring beat. Good luck!!
PAPOOSE IS OVER…get a 9 to 5 or go hug the block!!!
Lol @ hug the block!
ahaha
Such a terrible rapper.
sorry pap, im a fan, but your name is crusty white dog-shit cold right now. thw window of opportunity passed this dude by.
Pap is one of the most overrated rappers I’ve ever heard, and this dude is a phony. He should be real and just say that Drake is pop artist who cant fuck with Common, but nah, he’s going to be politically correct. What a bitch.
That is y’all problem now…. He doesn’t have to agree with your bias ass opinion…..He just might be a Drake fan…. gtfoh you dick riding ass bitch
And people put actually faith and hopes in this guy, who dropped some of the most horrible punchlines known to man? God damn, this nigga has one flow.
Damn,Common is ‘sweetly’ munching on that gay,soft ass wanna-be rapper Drake!He is making it look so easy too,so damn easy.
Damn, ya’ll goin in on dude lol
This dude has made all the wrong business moves. He miles well beg to go to strange music. The only chance he has now.
YMCMB there signing everyone
omg all this hate just cause he said drake is nice?
No, because he’s one of the whackest rappers of all time. Sad, but even Drake is better.
I can’t believe almost a decade has passed and pap still hasn’t dropped yet…lol This is a lesson to all you up and coming artists…DON’T CHASE THE MONEY. If pap would have would have gone to def jam instead of jive, he would have dropped a long time ago….The money doesn’t mean shit if you’re signing to a crappy label who doesn’t give a fuck about you.
Common vs, Drake hmmm, common is serious hiphop, drake on the up n up , but this like some lil wayne jay-z business, jay a god mc, wayne on some nursery rhymes dr suess ish..
Yall tripping, pap is nice. He just doing a little ass kissing so he’s not labeled a hater that’s all. It’s just like when primo put take care on his top 25 lp list
the battle is between 2 of the top rappers in the game right now…and they go and get the opinion of an irrelevant “never-has-been’?
well the opinion of another rapper is better then the opinion of thousands of regular fans.. he knows the game
Trust me Pap been places, maybe he ain’t Beyonce but he’s bin on that grizzly, pay homage!
Lol id rather listen to pap then common or drake..sorry. I mean i like common but to build a career off deeper thinking and real shit to drop such a weak ass 16 to diss a dude cus hes..soft? Sorry comm u been soft on more tracks then drakes even recorded. Dont get me wrong tho fuck drake.
Where the fuck is that Nacirema Dream at nicca?? I don’t wanna still be trying to cop that joint when its time to start collecting Social Security.
Pap was a monster but he missed his opportunity. He had a crazy buzz after he got on the touch it remix, and had one of the best verses on the track. The underground heads already knew him, but that gave him a mainstream buzz. He should have dropped Nacirema Dream then.
yeah cause we all care about what some wack ass underground punchline only rapper thinks.
wasn’t this nigga supposed to be the next Nas? Saviour of NY RAP?
he actually ended up like nas lol
^^^^^^
Nas has albums you can buy in stores, this nigga doesnt, the fuck you goin on about??
You fucking pussy ass faggot. How is Nas anything like Papoose? Are you gay?
(shaking my head laughing)
Man y’all niggas are cold blooded…
(but y’all are dead on though…LOL)
Only on hiphopdx…. So i guess if pap would have sided with common he wouldn’t get all this hate right? I swear you hiphopdx bloggers are a bunch of dick riders…. He has a opinion and knows more about the game than you bias dickriding stand ever will know. But thanks pap on giving a honest opinion unlike these dickriding ass stand.
I don’t like Papoose, but I have to agree when it comes to your statement to dickriding. It’s nowhere else close to this site anywhere else on the internet. You’re called a hater, even if you say some objective shit.
Master Lyricist, or, just.. Nice
Papoose knows exactly what he’s sayin’
And damn, I used to think Pap himself was more then a nice lyricist (alphabetical slaughter)
Crafting ”songs” seems to be a b*tch
On that pic, he looks like he’s snapping his fingers like “oh no he dinnnninntt”.
look Drake is a nice writer, but can’t freestyle( off the top , no writtens ) Common ill writer, and a beast wit freestyle. Look What happends when you run out of writtens?
You get ate by the one who doesn’t write simple. and stop haten on Pap that was a fair opinion, real rap
pap , acid da savage , gold mine records
I know pap missed his chance but he still be killing shit.
awww Pap, wtf dude??? I only clicked this link because i thought u were gonna rip that faggot drake to bits!!!
DID YOU HEAR ABOUT?JADAKISS GOT KILLED ON WAX!!! http://www.videozer.com/video/mtmpnC7D
NOT ONLY IS NO ONE GONNA GO THERE, HHDX IS GONNA DELETE YO’ COMMENT SO FIND ANOTHA WAY TO GET YO’ GRIND ON INSTEAD OF UP OFFA OTHER ESTABLISHED PEOPLE.
Why would he wanna rip into drake? what has drake did to him or said? Every one has a opinion….Yours doesn’t matter so stfu
I have a sudden urge on switching to Geico
who would really give a flying fuck about a common drake beef? fuck common for involving himself in this shit
since the beef broke out, every article about Drake or Common done blown up. people care.
and somehow you must too, if you willing enough to post here about it
lol…SCHOOLED
