Like Trip said, I don’t think we’re afraid to be ourselves, I don’t think our music cares at all for acceptance. But we’re right there next to-our music is going to be right next to somebody who’s not making the same type of music or aesthetic. We have to find that audience, because you have to filter through the noise that is just music everywhere. So it’s a wide open lane, we just have to meet in the middle of that demand curve.
#STEP BROTHERS 2 DON TRIP DOWNLOAD HOW TO#
The people that our music would most closely appeal to aren’t searching for a download link, don't probably don’t have a clear understanding of how to get digital music. And I think the disconnect is that they’re not online. Starlito: The disconnect is finding the audience that would be the most receptive to it, so they gravitate toward what we’re doing. You’re not going to get “Caesar and Brutus” from street rappers that talk about the same types of things. That’s to say that some of that music isn't good, but when we pan across and show you the rest of the picture, I think it’s like, "Oh shit, what is this? What are they talking about?" You’re not going to get a “Leash on Life” from a whole host of other street rappers. None of them are running around, fresh as hell, driving around foreign cars and shit. Everybody I know that had bricks, the majority of them are locked up. And I’m not taking away from no one else’s success story, but a lot of people have made names for themselves, established careers, made hits, made tons of money off lying, off giving half truths, off commercializing the whole hood experience, or giving some jaded perspective.Įverybody’s not rich. Starlito: I think the lane is wide open, also, because so many people have achieved massive success doing the opposite. I couldn’t tell it like he could tell it anyway. Me giving you so and so’s story is watered down already, because it’s his story. I can’t give you no other story than mine. And when it comes to the music, that’s pretty much how we take it. If I feel like saying it, it’s going to get said. We spoke with Starlito and Don Trip about being the new face of the underground, independent hustle, the recording of Step Brothers 2, and what happened to Don's deal with Interscope. "Booked the venue, sold the tickets, promoted the show." Being independent isn't so much about an identity for the duo, as it is a financial reality of the era in which they work. "Probably 75% of the shows we put on ourselves," 'Lito explained. The album was bankrolled by an independent Step Brothers tour this past spring. Last week, Step Brothers 2 was released, and garnered more attention than their previous release. Despite receiving some high-profile attention from the press-'Lito, then known as All $tar, was written up in the New York Times, and Don Trip was put on XXL's Freshman cover in 2012-both have remained, by and large underground favorites. Neither of these relationships would last.
The latter had a viral story song that went viral, attracting the attention of Dr. The former was a longtime Nashville rapper who'd built regional buzz and had become involved, for a time, with Cash Money records. Both artists had grown modest underground followings.
