I must be missing something. If Joe claims to be retired from rap and allegedly Royce said he wouldn't do anything without Joe, exactly what is the issue. Don't know if it happened or not but I don't even think a heads up is warranted if two members previously stated they aren't interested. It doesn't sound like a heads up was not given though.
Even if the issue is them using the Slaughterhouse name to eat, why not just come to a beneficial relationship for everyone or just allow them to use the name without giving anything for it. Again, Joe claims he isn't rapping anymore so why would you care about monetization of the group name or what contracts are signed. For better or worse with a contract, I'd just make it clear that I'm not associated with the group to ensure I don't run into other legal issues in the future.
Also, I'm sorry, fuck paying for Patreon.
I mean y'all talk shit about everyday topics, and now want me to pay for that shit, and when there's a variety of other podcasts to listen to, you think I'll pay? FOHWTBS.
Rory and Mal launched their Patreon I guess yesterday. If you have to force and do corny shit to justify a Patreon, maybe don't do it. If I already get 2 pods a week for free, what the fuck else are you adding via Patreon???
Even Joe and his Patreon has never peaked my interest at all. I'm good with the regular Pod, and just my opinion, they are stretching themselves thin. 2 episodes a week plus a Patreon episode is too much IMO.
I like how Dave Chappelle had his shit behind a paywall when he launched his Pod. That I can understand paying for.
Joe claims he was willing to rap again, but he had questions about the fine print of the deal.
Joell came to them with the advance money and nothing else.....
Joe's questions never got answered and next thing he and Royce knows there's this new "album."....and the lead single is a subtle diss to Royce and Joe..... THAT is wild.
its a very different dynamic-^^^
Facts
that improvement is very very impressive
And to STILL be relatively low key on social media
they basically go to work twice a week and be OUT
they REALLY don't engage (that I have SEEN)
and really don't NEED to
which is interesting
because we ALL said Rory and Mal NEEDED to do MUCH MORE of that (especially Joe)
But with Ish and Ice I think its different
I don't really need or want anymore from them outside the pod
I hear you
But I can't comment since I don't think I have ever heard/seen the Patreon content to say its worth it or not.
Now that I think on it? Maybe I have seen it leaked on YouTube or reddit ?
If it's unedited, released early or bonus behind the scenes stuff?
I guess if you a FAN like that then it's fine.
It really depends on podcast like you said.
Vlad has one on YouTube and it's nothing that you can't get for free it's all just early release and unedited
I could understand OTHER social media folk wanting that access to fuel their OWN podcasts and channels.
If our podcast had one I think it would be more mini episodes that are instant reactions and on one specific topic only etc.
its a very different dynamic-
patreon version of the pod is like an extended mix of an 80s Prince song
eg. the meg v tory topic a few months ago, none of the conspiracy media manipulation discussion was on Youtube
most times whole segments are removed from the pod on Youtube
patreon exclusives (avg 3 /week.... +1 hour -2.5 hour per ep)- very under rated
They are a balance of interviews, deep dives, and life lessons / relationship issues / parenting etc
Can you expand on the different dynamic?
And
How do the producers decide what specifically counts as Patreon content?
As opposed to YouTube Spotify etc?
And can't Patreon content be pirated?
I agree with the girl in the background.

I'll forever respect Rory for the way he handles himself. Being able to take personal biases out of a situation and speak objectively about difficult topics is a rare trait today and Rory a master at it. Mal still childish as usual but Rory the one and the reason i still check in on this pod.

Yes, Demaris trying to explain it to Mal is the same conversation Joe was trying to have with Joell. You can't really teach people the business side if they don't want to get it. Go do your thing from scratch. No one is stopping them from doing that, and they've done that before, but there is value in the name and the brand.... at a minimum, you have to run them their cut. See, how they feel doing 100% of the work and only being entitled to 50% of the profit. IYKYK
more mature in some ways - and more combativeCan you expand on the different dynamic?

more mature in some ways - and more combative
Ish is a know it all -argues just to argue - but sometimes provides real insite
while Ice is very knowledgeable in some areas
Parks v Ish is a thing - especially when Ish tries to argue against Parks' expertise
highly controversial = Patreon only
yes it can be pirated, but it can get taken down easier because its content behind a paywall

Everybody got that friend that you invite out to shit but they never come. Eventually you stop asking.
But the moment they find out about some shit that you DIDN'T invite him to, they in their feelings talking about "Why I ain't get no invite?"
Click bait titles on the vids / tweets. Joe told Joell that an album full of disses towards him and Royce can s*ck his meat. He never invited Joell to his meat.
But Joe was wrong AF for that snooty ass "I'm bigger than" comment. Mfkr said the quiet part out loud and he shouldn’t have......
Can't lie, I would have a problem with this if I was Royce and Joe. They blamed it all on those two. Mentioning Royce was cooler when he was drinking, bringing up Joe's pill addiction 
Your comment caught my attention because I had bought that album a few months ago.he wasn't wrong
The reason that Crook and Joell are doing this, is because nobody is checking for them otherwise. I'm only aware of Joell's projects from when Parks or Joe mention it on the pod. I didn't even know about the Crook and Joell one they already did.
The reason that this is getting traction is because Joe finally responded. When Royce was doing it the week before, people barely cared.
Bruh this is mad flagrant.......
After seeing this visual with these lyrics........ yeah man. WTF?!
Joell talking about tearing Slaughterhouse down. Mentioning Joe and Royce's addictions. Then Crook talking about they're snakes. "Joe married to retirement, why are we making the fans suffer."
Joe has alluded that the retirement thing was to get off Shady so that they could become independent......and that he has talked to them about that behind the scenes more than once......
So if that's the case.....he's not "married" to retirement.
But not for nothing both songs have had sneak disses to both Joe and Royce.....why the fuck would you expect either one to "support" or cosign some nasty shit like this?!
This is just wild how neither one can see their faults in this.
Crooked dropped some ETHER on Joe Budden.Just saying.
