The cRap Music Fantasy League (beta)

cons

You dudes got some fuckin’ nerve giving me shit over not having this post up on the page! I was on my way to some open bar event with the niggas from OnSmash dot com and now I am in some Korean run computer lab so you ungrateful fucks can get your fun on.

Here’s the point to cRap Music Fantasy League…

Everybody gives Jigga their azz because they don’t think he can run a rap label like Def Jam. Let’s see how well some of you run your own label. This is about business so choose rappers for your label that can make you money. I am going to set a few ground rules in this post that every label has to abide by. Use this post to OFFICIALLY enter the pool. The previous joint was to see how many heads were really ’bout it and whether this would be worth my time to administer. Since the feedback was good for feedback on this site I will do the league. Let’s get it crackin’…

Submit the name of your label and your roster of eight(8) artists in the comments section. Every label must have a girl rapper and an R & B dude. Your label scores money points every time one of your artists has a top twenty single, a music video in rotation, an album release, a review of a concert or album in supremacist media outlet(NYTimes, Washington Post, L.A. Times, etc), gold record certification, platinum record certification, award honor. I will set the money point level at a certain amount that allows a label the opportunity to acquire additional artists above the original eight.

Labels lose money points when their artists are arrested, but they gain notoriety points. Notoriety points will be transferrable for money points after a certain amount still to be determined.

Labels may have a dead artist on their roster.

Labels may have the same cRappers as other labels.

Labels may drop an artist from their roster and select another artist. That label may not re-acquire that dropped artist ever again. This is the SUGE KNIGHT rule.

Labels will have their points totalled on a weekly basis, or whenever I get the chance to tabulate the scores. Since this is the beta jumpoff for this league don’t present questions to me outside of the comments section. In this way everybody can benefit from playing the game.

Start filling up the comments with your rappers and your label names.

  5. NoMamesBuey says:

    a suggestion:

    Like fantasy football, where you pick a player(s) for each position, like QB, RB, WR, defense, K, etc..

    Draft the cRap league by position something like 1 of each
    as you mentioned
    1 rap woman
    1 R&B dude
    also
    1 mainstream big MC (e.g. Jay)
    1 major label but no promotion MC (e.g Kweli)
    1 underground label MC (e.g. Akir)
    1 major level rap group (e.g The Roots)
    1 underground label rap group (e.g Blackalicious)
    1 superproducer (e.g Just Blaze)
    1 “Koch” artist -ex platimun selling artist who got cut from the majors is now indy (e.g. De La Soul)
    1 mixtape artist that’s yet to be signed but is “hot in da streets” (e.g. Saigon)
    1 foreign language MC that is NICE on the mic (e.g. Tego Calderon)

    Just some ideas. With the current scheme & with most points based on sales & beef, e’rone’s top 8 is gonna have 50, Game, Jay, Em, etc. Not enough variety to be interested IMHO

    Damn! I leave for a hot minute, and the new post gets put up. And to top it off, I have negros talking greasy (ahem…Combat Jack) abbout Dubble swagger-jacking artists…despite the fact that I was waiting til today to post my artists (as seen in the original post comments).
    That being said, and since Dallas is Peeved that I was calling him out in the Kofi Annan comment section about not being on his grizzle, I will repost my roster, but with modification. As “NoMamesBuey” said above, if everyone picks the same artists, then this will be boring as hell…

    And without further ado, DubbleUP Entertainment presents its new roster:

    DubbleUp Entertainment:

    1. Jay-Z (making big moves nowadays, and since the Kingdom Come fiasco, he will get hungrier and drop CDs yearly)

    2. Lil Wayne (since Dedication 2, I gots luv for his skills)

    3. Camron (eff whutcha heard…he has some serious bangers in his catalogue)

    4. Dr. Dre (was Eminem but Dre is the brains behind all of that)

    5. Snoop Dogg (I figured I would throw a jailbird in here..toss up between him and DMX)

    6. Mario Winans (I wanted Beyonce here, since as Shakira said: hips don’t lie; but it has to be a guy – and I loved that track “I don’t wanna know”)

    7. Remy Ma (fiercest female MC in the game right now, given the right beat) I ‘m saying it now: Nicki Minoj is on the come-up…

    8. Kanye West (with this new lawsuit by Evel Kneivel, everyone is gonna get tired of his azz, forcing him to get sued further, or get hungrier – ala Jay-Z)

    I would tell Combat Jack to eat a d!ck, but I am gonna take the high road and ether you in the rankings instead.

    Love peace and hairgrease peoples…

  15. Rick James, Bitch says:

    Let’s up the game. Let’s select distribution and production teams. Also, Let’s add fantasy beef stats. I know everyone would like to know how would Ghost fare in beef with BIG(since the purple tape skit Sharks started the friction). For my Code Red Records, my distribution is Interscope. Fantasy Beef: Likwid Tangz’s Saigon vs. Fast Lane’s Young Dro Beef started due to Saigon’s Fuck The South Movement. Dallas let me know if this is official and can be done.

  24. the_dallas says:

    YO! YO! YO! YO!

    Some of y’all fools is straight O.D.’ing with this shit. ONE label per person! So whoever is the Rick James, Big Boy, Suge Knight character is about to get deaded from the game. If y’all think I don’t have nothing better to do than sit behind this computer and eff with y’all you are lunchin’.

    The object of cRap Music Fantasy League, in the words of esteemed old head cRapper Nas is, “TO GET MONEY”. If some of y’all have the same draft picks at the outset that shit is whatever. Anyone who fucks with the rotisserie shit knows that you never end up with the same team you drafted.

    Some of y’all spazzes have exceeded the artist limit. You get a total of eight(8). Within those eight artists you have to put a fag(R & B) and a dyke(female rapper). There will be no points assigned to any production or distribution or marketing teams. Your artists overall success is what will determine your points. If you fill up your comment with shit that aint part of the game and your team roster gets fucked up then you only have yourself to blame.

    The people that are going to do well in this game are the people that understand what Hip-Hop means as a corporate enterprise. I will come up with various themes for bonus points that all players can benefit from, but your first priority is to make money for your label. I will close this thread over the weekend and we will play a beta round next week.

    The official first day of cRap Music Fantay League play will begin 1/1/2007. Quarter 1 as it is called in the corporate offices. The League will run until the beginning of Q2. At which time I will decide if we want to take it any further.

  76. cocotaso says:

    dallas question about rapper-singer/producers ie: kanye or kellz.

    do there productions count since they arent prduction “teams” and if they do count are would the production and feature are count as two “sucess” points or one?

    This has to be Dallas’ Best Week Evar!!!! D, I think you need to slow down on you average 4 posts a day and let us readers like marinate on your drops so’s you can rack up more comment points like the homie Es’kay.

    ^C Jeezy,
    Nah’Right is an internets beast. I couldn’t mess around with the wild bunch that he has in his threads, but we have a nice core group of characters over here so I can’t complain. I agree with you too that I need to ease back. Coming into my 9-2-5 with internets’ eyes has me looking fiendish.

    ^^Cocotaso,
    I am not trying to drive myself bananas with the scoring. Chose your artists based on their ability to have resonance in the pop culture sphere. How many ppl that buy albums actually read the liner notes to see who’s getting the ASCAP credits? I know I don’t unless I’m taking a shit or I’m bored or both. If you get too rap nerdy with this you will not win.

    ***cRap Music Fantasy League Money Making Tip#1:
    Get nerdy with this shit in the sense that you find out who is about to drop a CD and who is about to reach gold or platinum certification.
