How to start rivalry?

AI takes care of this. I'll look at starting one with rap artists in next release. Your artists can only respond at the moment.

Using a custom database, I somehow seem to get rivalries for Hip hop artists that has either a Rap song created or a Rap song in their databse (an unfinished song). Does this have to do with the game thinking my artist is a Rap artist, or is it something else??

Just a song but their genre isnt rap or hip-hop? If so its a bug

It's usually been occuring with Hip-hop artists, but it might have to do with me forcing Rap artists to release Hip-hop songs, which may trick the game into thinking Rap artists also have Hip-hop release, which affects the random selection of artists being chosen in a rivalry. On a recent game save, and using RealArtists database, I used Angel Haze, a Rap artist, to release a Hip-hop genre song which ended up with Nicki Minaj, a Hip-hop artist, get into a rivalry with another artist.

 

I haven't tried it on another database or with different genres, but so far it's been with Hip-hop and Rap oriented artists.
