    rappers don't make s--- off sales anymore, so they put their material out for free to make it more accessible. then they cash in on shows and endorsements instead as an actual source of income.

    With Mixtapes like Acid Rap, Overly Dedicated, Kush & OJ, MMM & Owl Pharoah, it feels like the 50 cent kind of mixtapes are fading and the more polished mixtapes are becoming the new norm.
