LOl, good point.
Still think someone like that falls more under "rap superstar" than pro musician/producer.

He can prob rap a hot verse or 100, but there must be some mastermind doing the actual dirty work for the tracks.

At the rate this thread is going,
logical straight forward answers are actually starting to throw me off which is a bit weird/sad.

But thanks for staying on topic!

You make this statement above. Then later post what you found in google which states what we've all been saying and that is that a pro gets paid for what he does.

Am I missing something here? If I am I apologise..

No I'm confusing myself too and don't expect you to understand if I cant understand myself lol

The concept of this thread is stupid I know that.
I was literally just trying to get more a template of the avg pro and the qualities he would possess the non pros on this boards could work on.

What I have realized by this thread is the level of formality is what prob does it. Like schooling, education, profession, teaching, bands and things of that sort rather than self educating, reading books, practice, tutorials, and mostly solo efforts towards progress.

I know a pro usually has a bit of most of those traits but it seems people who don't study music formally, or involve it as a career in their life also don't really reach that level of being a pro.

Its stupid I know but I'm just curious.

Is this the guy behind the music, because drawing pattern blocks is quite easy. Anyone can mimic the same structure just by listening.
