I'm no expert...wont claim to be...but not completely in the dark.
You don't need the backing of a major label on 2023. Not to get on. Not to stay on. It's can be a benefit. It is not a requirement.
How are you getting on a Spotify playlist, advertised high in Apple Music or booked on these tours? Labels are in control of that. In this microwave era.
It's 200,000 rappers out here. How are you getting heard out of your city, state? All these people who die or get arrested, how many are rappers? A so called rapper dies or gets arrested every day. Never even heard their name.
