with artistic vision, no gimmick, artistic integrity, and am not willing to water down my music for mass appeal, then probably not, it would be tough to get paid, that shit would be to tough for bubblegum teeny-trl crowd to buy in mass quantity, then hell no. id probably be better off signing w/ an indie, building a grassroots fanbase (a'la doom), youd probably be able to eat better selling indie records than a mainstream flop (damn bleek, one word - RE-COUP).
however if im just a pure rapper, no real artistic vision, but can spit HOT FIYA (c) dylan, then sure, hit me up w/ a swizzy, timbo, or storch single, make a 'tipsy', get paid for a hot minute, then INVEST MY MONEY wisely.
theres nothing wrong w/ a major at all, but damn, outside of 'kast, kanye, and jigga no one is selling shit, and the 'hip hop powerhouses' (rocafella, def jam, bad boy) havent had consistantly dominating/successful artists/records in a long damn time.
