JANKY NIGGAZ IN THE INDUSTRY

     How many of yall are tired of JANKY m.f’s? You know what I mean. Its not just the promoters that’s janky. “Jank” is like a virus that spreads throughout all of hip hop’s alumni. There’s Janky rappers, janky producers, janky DJ’s, Janky engineers, etc.. the list goes on! I want you all to be aware of these bitch made m.f’s! So in the Unrestricted fashion, I’ve compiled a list for you to study so you will know a JANKY person from a mile away! (Genius right? Lol. I know!)

                JANKY - adjective used to describe a person, place or thing which is questionable, fucked up, wrong, strange, broken down, undesirable, and/or just something you can't think of another word for. 

WAIT!... BEFORE YOU READ THIS! IF YOU GOT FEELINZ YOU MIGHT WANNA STOP NOW! IM NOT TALKING ABOUT ANYBODY I FUCK WITH! IM MERELY STATING THE FACTS SO BEFORE YOU GET ALL EMOTIONAL OVER WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO READ, THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE TO TURN YO SENSITIVE ASS BACK AROUND!...okay. Yall still rockin wit me? I said are you still rockin wit me?!?! Aight just checkin! lets go! lol

TYPES OF JANKY MUTHAFUCKAZ

1.       Promoters – Nothing new about this. They even made a movie about them! These m.f’s will tell you anything to get what they want. No, they don’t have the artists best interest in mind. All they care about is getting money in their pocket. That means booking the less experienced, less established artists on the Mondays and Tuesdays at the bars and pubs while saving the Friday, Saturday and Headliner gigs for the ones who will bring an audience and pay for their slot upfront. Its just business but some of them take it too far and start fuckin they own homies over! I call em sell-outs, suckas, bitch niggas! I don’t know any tho. I cut them all off a long time ago! Lol!

2.       Producers – Yes its possible! They say they down to shoot you a couple beats then talk shyt about how everybody wants beats for free! They offer beats to everyone becus their shyt aint sellin. On top of that, their shyt aint even dope! Then when you do pay, they give you a small selection of bullshyt to choose from. They have no style and the quality sucks but swear it’s not their fault. (Ok nigga!) They will never admit that their shyt is dumpster juice! But worse is these thirsty ass rappers keep pumpin their heads up so they can keep getting free beats. Which leads to the next type.

3.       Rappers – Oh MY GAWD! Of course not all rappers are janky but the ones that are usually are in everyones ear all the damn time. They say they are down to colab but never show up to the session. They cancel shows unannounced, always wanna get in shows for free, and if there is ever a cypher they usually decline and say they don’t freestyle! (hit you with that line “I don’t rap for free bruh.” GTFOH!)

4.       Dj’s – “Yea, I played your track last night and the club went crazy!” Ever heard that one before? They are quick to act like they really care about local music but all they spin is 2 chainz and YG all night. They probably couldnt scratch they own ass let alone a record. They charge hella $$$ just to have them yell their name on every track and fuck up your mixtape with their sloppy chops and “BRING-IT-BACKS”.

5.       Engineers – Someone should make a contest for engineers similar to an ARTIST SEARCH. Have them all mix and master the same track, from the same artist, with the same vocals to see who really got skills. Judged by INDUSTRY experts that will call their bluff. Just becus they got a degree, top-dollar equipment and a fly studio doesnt mean they know what they are doing! Always quick to shyt on home studios but their mixes sound worse then someone who learned how to mix from google and youtube.

6.       Managers – These m.f’s wont even talk to you if you don’t have a big enough budget. They are quick to talk percentages yet slow to talk opportunity. They act like the artist works for them and it’s the other way around. They are always talkin about who and what they know but you never see anything. What you mean I cant sit in on the meeting? What you mean I cant call them? This is my career not yours homie. They try to live their dreams that they couldn’t achieve thru the artists they are supposedly managing! Fuckin Janksters!

7.       General managers/ Club Owners – Only a few will get this. When you get to the level where you are organizing your own events you gotta be smart becus money talks and bullshyt walks…unless you are the General Manager or Club owner. They always know more then you. ALWAYS! Yea you can keep the door but they will hit you with an outrageous bar minimum! If at the end of the night you were $1 short, its coming out of what you made at the door. Also check all equipment before you open doors. That’s what sound check is for. To see if everything is in workin order. If you don’t, they will charge you for a piece of equipment that was broken beforehand and they used you to get it fixed. And some more shyt, but these guys are smarter then you ever will imagine. But I prefer to call em Janky instead!  

8.       Videographers – How long does it take to make a video? No special effects? Bad lighting? Poor Camera quality? What makes some of them janky is shyt like when they ask for a media pass. You go thru all these loops to get them in the spot free with an all access pass to get them everywhere they want to be and they don’t even show up! They say they gonna get shots of you for a show and only give you a quick 5 sec shot of you doin absolutely nothing important. Never get back to you when you want a copy of the footage. Just fuckin Janky about it. Bitch, you not the only nigga in the city with a camera!

9.       Photographers – It takes forever to get them to work. They post pics everywhere but never wanna work. You prolly gotta pick them up from pookie house cus they aint got no car. They have no vision for camera angles or shutter speeds. They just put the flash on auto and snap the flick. Shyt is hella blurry so they play like they put that effect on purpose. Lol. Step ya game up!

10.     Media – The media is soooo fuckin JANKY period! This consist of radio heads, bloggers (lol!), TV personalities, etc. They will promise you the exclusive, guarantee placement and assure you get the feature then twist ya words up and make you out to be something you’re not becus the story is more appealing. This hasn’t happened to me yet but im looking out for them! Its all love now but when you reach a certain level, they will be waiting for you!!
