The otherz...

As you all know, we're not the only beat website on the internet. There's loads of us. We've mentioned previously how we feel some are respectable beatmakers, while others just end up using valuable bandwidth.

A few days ago one of these competitors (which I won't name coz it's not necessary) tried to "seduce" us into joining their affiliate program. An affiliate program is essentially a system through which you promote someone else's product/service on your website and get paid a commission for every sale you generate. We've never seen such a long and schmoozy email.

So of course our reaction was "what the f???? Why would we want to promote a competitor's beats on our website?" We were promised lots of cash and glory, but heck no...we're not your average whores..

We're happy to partner with like minded beat websites, but we're not going to make money for someone else at the expense of our hard work on the beats. We want you to rhyme over our beats, not someone else's...not matter how much we get paid to push you their way..

Feel better I got that off my chest...while Lupe sings "kick, push" I'll return to the beats......

Oh yeah and by the way, Google just gave us a PageRank of 5...in other words it means the biggest search engine in the world loves us even more...that can only be good news...
