What's In A Name?

Wow I didn't realise it had been so long since I blogged.Today's thoughts are on artists names.

1. If you haven't been signed by the time you are 25 then you're not "Young/Yung"
2. If you are over 6 foot tall or over 250lbs you're not "Lil"
3. Tribute names  trying to cash in on famous artists (especially dead ones) is a no no
4. You may be "The Original" or "The Real" but how many artists get signed with a name like that?
5. Don't come up with a "clever" spelling of any of the following: bitch,nigga,lady,lover.. you get the picture

I could go on but I limit myself to 5 per blog.
Thank you to those who read this, I know most artists don't blog so won't follow me but I don't do it for the followers I do it to try and help.
