How do people like Phonte and Cannibus Live? (Do some rappers have day jobs now?)

Alot of the 90s rappers and 'underground' rappers like RA, Vinnie and Tech etc tour Europe and Asia all the time...

Still Ive heard some 80s rappers and REALLY early 90s rappers, like 1991-1992ish rappers have normal jobs, so what??? I dont see the problem with any rapper ending up working a normal job...

Having some fun with the rap game and then getting a job is not a fail.. unless you actually did make big money and blow it all, that could be depressing...

Most rappers are broke and rap doesn't pay the way you think. Greg would tell you himself, most rappers rent their jewellery and have it insured (in case they get robbed), cars are rented, etc. Only the top 5% of rappers actually make any money and most of the masters are owned by labels. Rap is largely smoke and mirrors and sales don't equate to financial success and haven't since 2007, rappers make 90% of their money from touring and endorsements. E-40, Slim Thug, Wiz Khalifa, Chamillionaire, 50 Cent, Master P, Tech N9ne, JT The Bigga Figga, Ludacris, T.I. these rappers understood that which is why you see them on social media still being able to stunt the way they do. The rest of these rap niggas is broke.

Niggas are so stupid they believe these niggas are millionaires when they have no hits, no albums, no tours, but are walking around in Gucci and have 6 chains on - the label paid for that and they'll have to pay them label back eventually SMMFH.

I'm sure that Hell Rell has more money than you

NY is a big place, you meet a lot of rappers on trains.

Shout out to Brian Pumper. NH.

Met Pumper last time I was in Cali.

He had that same dusty tank top and gave off a weirdo vibe.

I know a lot of famous people in NYC take the train. I'm just saying you prolly wouldn't see Juelz, Jones or Cam on one.

Like I said before b. Pumper looks like oneof the henchmen from the first two levels of the clasic double dragon video game with that beat up tank top
 
Heard Phonte does voice over, I think he's writing for tv shows as well. If I can remember correctly from his Combat Jack interview.

Didn't Canibus join the army after his beef with LL Cool J. And then he got dishonorably discharged because he made a video free styling and smoking weed and uploaded it to the internet.
