Top 10 Hottest Cameroonian Mc’s

Top Cameroonian artistes list Top Cameroonian artistes list

One thing about being an outstanding rapper is the strength of the MC. No matter how many new fans they have, no matter how many hits they have, they are still hungry.

When they want to prove themselves most of them don't go on twitter/facebook. They settle it with bars. That's basic hip hop lessons 101, you got something on yo chest? then get on the mic and spit it. To be great you need to set challenges, and work towards beating them.

Social media has come and created their own artists, they can easily come back and forth on facebook and twitter and not a single record is released... To make it, you have to spend endless time in the studio, and actually after release work hard in the streets to promote it.

Music is not for everyone it is an occupation, it is not a try and see field. Now here comes a common word *HATER*, recently one cant easily have an opinion without being called a hater, this is very common with the upcoming artists and it is lame.

That is so fragile, Rap is not a place to be soft….if you want to be soft go and do pop. Because rap is a battle ground, its always been that way.
