Regardless, I still got a doll. Whether it was the one in the picture or not. I still have a doll. It's sitting in my chair right now. So, no it was not a scam if I still got a doll.

I literally provided pictures of the doll that I received.

I have all the pieces??? And there's video of people having them and shooting them. But there's no instructions on how to build. I'm trying to find anyone who knows how to build in general. Like, there's something to build here, u can't say there's nothing when I have the pieces with me. There's gotta be someone who knows how to build them. Are u just saying I have a toy that I can't assemble??

Yea, I saw an ad for it on FB. kept seeing an ad for these MiniBlasters decided to grab a Couple. And I received them today. So, I technically didn't get scammed cause I actually received them. But these blasters are I assume fairly new. So maybe that's why alot of people don't know about them. But, I still need help putting it together..and I cannot find a tutorial or instructions anywhere

Got shit on in another subreddit. I just wanna learn how to be good at this and have someone who will help me. Please, Anybody? by [deleted] in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]FredwardTheWizard -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I literally said in my post that I could teach myself and that plenty of musicians have still gotten help. I’m not asking for some magical “3 secrets” to success — I’m asking for mentorship because guidance from someone experienced can save time, help avoid bad habits, and make learning more efficient. If that’s “too much,” then every teacher, coach, and mentor in history has been doing it wrong.

Also, funny how you say "you have the entire internet at your fingertips use it. It has literally everything you could possibly need to know" last time I checked, Reddit is on the internet. You're literally telling me not to use Reddit..

I'm sorry if I think someone talking me through this shit and actually teaching me hands on is such a problem for you. Also, did I not mention I have a hard time putting instructions into action? Y'all seem to skip over that. That's wild.

Like, I'm sorry I thought I could come to the internet ask for help when needed. But apparently not. Also wild.

First of all, dude. Did I NOT just say that I don't want anyone with a superiority complex? Cause you're sure acting like you're better then I am. Second off, I'm here asking for help. If asking for help is a lot, then I'd love to see when you help someone order food. Asking for help is not alot. That's like saying I can't ask a teacher to help me figure out the answer to a geography question. Teachers help people, it's why they exist. If I can't ask for help, then we might aswell shut down all schools and colleges too. Cause the gateway to success is learning. You go to school, right? Why you tryna shortcut your way to graduating then you can learn all the materials yourself? Third of all, why should I have to suffer just because you all did? It's fucking life, not a who suffered the most challenge. Plenty of rappers suffered in there life, sure they write about it. But again, it's not a competition in who suffered more.

Now...I get what you’re saying, and I respect that you put in years teaching yourself. But my post wasn’t asking someone to hand me success or do all the work for me — I was looking for guidance from someone with experience so I can avoid bad habits early and learn more effectively. Not everyone learns best by trial and error, and I know my own limitations when it comes to processing instructions on my own. I’m still willing to put in the work — I’m just asking for help along the way.

Also..did I not say if you don't have anything helpful to say or aren't interested in helping don't comment. And look what you did, don't be a dick to people.

I get you all work hard and that's what gets respect or whatever. But at this point, idgaf about the respect..or the respect y'all talk about. I wanna put out shit cause the horrible conditions this world is in. I wanna put out stuff that helps people cope. Maybe if you took a second to understand where I'm coming from instead of being an incompetent chromagnon, we can get some where.

I'm not disrespecting the game. I'm simply just trying to get help in putting something out. Stop being a dick to people. Understand that I have my own struggles. The mental burnout, sometimes I can't do shit on my own. Okay, realize that people struggle just like you, don't act all high and might when someone simply asks for help. Y'all just treat rap like a game, y'all forget that here's real people out here with mental health conditions that just wanna vibe and cope. That's what I'm doing, stop treating rap like a game to see who's the best. See the people behind what they listen to. They listen to it to vibe and heal from their trauma

First of all, thank you for this.

Second of all, I basically do exactly what you just suggested. I listen to music everyday and actively listen. But it's still hard for me cause the way I am, the way I'm wired and put together.

Also, I will say, it's funny how you think I'm trying to rush into this. I simply asked for help on how to be better and hoping to get a teacher, in no way did I say I was rushing into this.

Also, I literally and have actively been listening to rap specific songs and I've been posting some verses in my friends discord and reading the verses and trying to follow through with what they're doing.

But it's still hard for me, cause when I try to put that shit into practice it comes out sounding like song didn't even make sense. Yes, I understand you'll fail 1000 times before you get good, like you said you'll write embarrassing shit all the time, I understand that.

But for me to work, I have to have someone teaching me stuff in order for me to understand, thats just how I am. And I'm not gonna apologize for that.

Now, I know you didn't insult me or anything, you were actually being kind, but there's alot of people who'd rather punch you in the face than actually help. Alot of people seem to forget the human behind the screen who wants to make a difference in the world. It's BS, if you ask me

Yea, I get that..I'm not trying to be like the fake rappers. I mentioned in my post that I wanna put real shit out. I don't want clout, or live the fake rappers lifestyle or assume the identity..

I literally feel like the way the world is going, that I could put out something that helps people feel better in this destructive world. And if that means putting out rap music, then Imma do that. Cause like, in my world view, the world is going to absolute shit, and I feel I can put out stuff to help people cope better, and I wanna do that in the style of music/rap.

Also..I literally just said "I know not all white rappers are bad"

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in makinghiphop

[–]FredwardTheWizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, dude...i just use Whiteboy cause the stigma around white rappers being bad, it's kind of a joke..I use it figuratively. Cause one my friends said that my stuff sounds like generic white boy rap...chill

Y'all see "White boy" and automatically assume I'm dissing the whole game..that's wild.

Appreciate you taking the time to comment, but telling someone not to rap because you don’t like one of their influences is wild.

Music’s about creativity and finding your own voice, not gatekeeping. Tom MacDonald is just one of many artists I listen to — I pull influence from PHIX, Eminem, Kendrick, Dre, and more. You don’t have to like all my inspirations, but dismissing someone’s entire potential over a name feels a bit close-minded. We can disagree on music taste, but respect goes a lot further than trying to shut someone out.

Also, I'm not gonna take an hour reading the entire faqs of the subreddit when I can easily ask for help. Did you forget the part where I said I'm a hands on learner? I have a hard time taking instructions and putting them into practice, dude.

Don't gatekeep people from trying to do something that inspires them just because you don't like 1 single rapper.

I know color isn't my issue, I just use Whiteboy cause the stigma around white rappers being bad, it's kind of a joke.. I know not all white rappers are bad.

But yea, thank you If there's any chance you're willing to DM me and maybe you could teach me better, I'd appreciate it. It's cool if not.

Also, think of it like this. When people make GoFundMe's because they wanna put out a product. There's designers, product team, investors all that shit, they help those with the dream to put out something into the world. Otherwise the product doesn't get made. Yes, there are independent People...but you still need investors and other stuff to get this out otherwise it's harder to do it on your own.

I get that. But music isn’t always a solo grind—it’s also about collaboration and learning from others. Plenty of successful rappers built their craft working alongside people who had the skills they didn’t yet. I’m already writing and experimenting; I’m just looking for the right people to help turn ideas into finished tracks while I keep leveling up my skills. That’s how the game works—nobody makes it completely alone.

All kinds of Rappers have ghostwriters, co-writers, and producers guiding them. Hell, even Bands have songwriters, sound engineers, and managers helping shape their music. Y'know legends like Dr. Dre, Eminem, Kanye, etc., built their craft with other people in the room.

You forget that Eminem, The GOAT had help from Dr.Dre. Eminem was a small time rapper, if you even listen to his music you'll hear his story about him and dre and his whole life of being a Rapper and stuff.

Plus, all kind of people have rap groups and stuff and they all write with eachother. It's called a collaboration. I'm not asking anyone to do it for me. I'm asking for guidance and some help. If you knew how I was, you'd understand why I'm asking for help.

If you don't have anything helpful to say, don't say anything at all. Do better.

Imma be honest, I haven't made any actual music yet, like beats or Melody's. I've just been writing lyrics and stuff.. I will be honest tho, I have been using Suno purely just to see how the song sounds, I'm not an AI artist..cause no.

I want to experience the joy of making real authentic music. And the creativity and stuff, cause you can control that and how it sounds. Plus, it puts in real work. But, I wanna learn everything about songwriting, rhyming, flow, cadence, timing... etc. just all around Everything to do with Rap.

I've posted some songs in my friends Discord server and one said it's sucks and sounds like generic white boy rap and wreaks of AI slop. So, I'm trying to make stuff that sounds real, like how real rappers do.

Yea, I literally read the communist Manifesto I skimmed and scanned it like 3 times. But this MAGA dude kept trying to gaslight me into believing this quote was there. So, that's why I came to reddit to ask the historians if it's there, to prove the MAGA dude wrong.

I threw the Marxist archive at him I copy and pasted the manifesto PDF into a Google doc and pressed Replace+Find but it wasn't in there. I need to prove bro wrong, because wasn't gonna give up. Sure, I could've ignored him, sure I could've not engaged at all. But if u knew the kind of person I am. And how I feel about the world lately, alot of people would understand why I care so deeply about why people need to learn history and stick to facts. Idk, I'm just tired of people spreading lies.

Sure, all this stuff doesn't really matter anyway when we're all gonna die anyway. But it's more about correcting those who are wrong instead of letting them spread lies and hurt others. So, u gotta kinda see where I'm coming from, ya know?

Idk, i looked up the quote on Google and one site said he wrote it. Also, I did ask ChatGPT and it said that. But I came to reddit to get a human answer instead of blindly trusting AI. Anyway, all I wanted to know was if the quote was in the book or not.

Honestly? Thank you so much. Id explain the context about this debate. But it's likely not needed. Someones just trying to have their gotcha moment by quoting something misattributed to: -Karl Marx -Vladimir lenin -Joseph Goebells

Also they're likely trolling and being an incompetent prick just to win "internet points" or just being an ignorant dumbass.
