How much do rappers charge for feature verses?
Ex: if I wanted a verse from someone who is in the same level of fame and relevancy as Danny Brown and Action Bronson, how much do you think it would cost?
>>69774600
depends on the person
i think 2 chainz charges 100k for a feature
>>69774635
2 CHAAAAINZ
>>69774600
12$ in change
>>69774635
this
i wouldn't expect a call back for less than 50k
>>69774706
yup asked b.o.bs management back in maybe 2012 lol
they asked what our budget was i think we said like 2k
they simply said "its too much"
Action Bronson is unremarkable so ideally for somebody of his skill level it wouldn't cost much
>>69774635
Surely that number has gone down since he hasn't done anything notable since BOATS 2
>>69774816
>wanting a b.o.b. verse
What were you thinking, m8
How much you guys think a Michael Gira feature would cost?
>>69774600
I'll rap on your CD for free...
>>69774600
Snoop dogg would do anything for 10$
>>69778253
yeah hes been doing songs lately with any random shitty hack artist from eastern european countries
>>69778272
That feature on Corey Feldman too
>>69778235
probably a lot of screaming
>>69775359
Hibachi tho.. Good Drank is huge right now
you could probably get action bronson for a couple k now his career is all but dead
>>69774600
pretty sure snoop will show up for $200 and a sandwich at this point
Don't bully Snoop.
He's just a nice guy who likes helping people out.
Heard somewhere that Earl charges 70k for a verse which is a bit ridiculous imo. He's a great rapper but come on
>>69778408
i also think people are underestimating what destined to fail eastern european pop stars have in the bank thanks to mommy and daddy
They'd probably take a percentage of the album sales.
>>69774600
Just become a good/semi-famous rapper then your record company wil pay for the feature/the featured rapper will do it for a lot less if the like your shit
>>69778235
It's not a monetary cost, but in order to get him in the studio you have to agree to let him spit in your face and berate you for a solid hour.
>>69778423
Probably why Earl doesn't feature that much...
Seems like he meant to price himself out of the market though. That seems like something he would do.
>>69774666
Demonic trips
>>69774979
>>69778335
lol is this a meme? Bronson has two TV shows and is more popular than ever.
>>69775359
idk i actually go very optimist into a song when i see that 2 chainz is a feature.
>Mercy
>Champions
>Castro (yo gotti its recent)
>buy back the block
>key to the streets
and most of these are 2016 songs
>>69780287
shit i forgot no problem by chance
>>69780287
well he did go to college after all...
>>69778423
>>69774635
B-but, I mean this is only if you're a nobody who wants to summon them into his studio, right? I mean, most times when two established artists collab it feels like it is out of mutual respect and good companionship (Earl for example may charge 70k or so, but I doubt he charges Mac Miller, or Vince, or Action Bronson, or anyone from OF...).
>>69781058
no, hip hop is hyper commercialized. This is why it will never evolve as organically as it could.
>>69778235
You life and soul
>>69781058
do you even listen to hip-hop? people talk about trading verses all the time, if you're around the same level of fame it's mutual in the sense that you give each other a feature, this happens all the time
>>69774600
My homegirl raps and paid for a Rapsody verse back in like 2012. It was like $700.00
Now Rapsody is on RocNation and had a feature on the most critically acclaimed album last year. I'm sure that number has skyrocketed.
>>69778423
I'm sure Earl does mostly homie verses. I'm pretty sure Brown paid no more than 10K for that verse. He might have even did it for free.
>>69775359
You're buggin if you think a Chainz verse has gone anything but up over these past few years.
>>69781908
I don't really follow the industry side of it, I just listen to albums.
>>69775359
It wasnt even that high to begin with. Newsflash: rappers exaggerating about their money :O
>>69782034
bye rddit
Do you guys think I could I get an Aesop Rock verse for less than 30k?
>>69774816
underrated post
>>69784242
Maybe. Open Mike Eagle had him on his most recent album and I doubt he's got 30k to spend on a feature but they are friends and OME did a feature on My Belly too.
>>69774635
Haha! Maybe now.
But remember that a few years ago that dude was slumming it on a fucking Kreayshawn track.

>>69784242
I don't think he makes music that way
>>69784242
>paying money to get BTFO on your own track
buddy
>>69774635
man never forget 2011-2012 where it seemed like 2 chainz was giving verses away for a hot meal and a handshake
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQa_QW4ZJXA
>>69785549
>>69786802 (me)
i should've read the thread hahaha
>>69786802
2 chainz and kreayshawn actually been friends before 2 chainz got huge. So itvwasnt just a verse he gave to some random white girl for a chunk of money
>>69786729
I could hold my own tbqh
I'm not the same style of rapper so it would be more like a mix than a competition
>>69774600
What if you wanted to make an appearance on Danny Brown's album? Would you have to pay him?
>>69774635
he said in an interview that that was only for a short period of time iirc. I think usually his verses would be like 40k. Probably less now.
>>69781252
not even remotely true. its very community based.
>>69790241
No rapper would let an unknown on their album unless they already know you and like you
