Do you think Drake has even seen any money? Baby is probably raping him.

He came into the rap game with his own $$, accountant and an entertainment lawyer.

He has the best management in the business - HipHop Since 1978. Same folks that manage Kanye and Jeezy.

Look how long he waited to even sign a deal.

I doubt anybody jerking that dude right now.

you are talking about two guys from two different social backgrounds, just because drake might speak more properly doesn't mean he is any smarter. Gucci has a target audience he markets himself to hence how he acts and dresses.

They both speak English. Gucci seems to have the most trouble speaking it. Background is irrelevant.

Man niggas be forget about taxes, paying producers, lawyers, etc.. Joc might of made 11 mil that year but after all that shit the nigga aprobally walked away with 3-4 mil which aint bad but where the nigga at now and whatt he doin?? He probally broke as shit
 
didnt baby and wayne give that nicca the rights to all his publishing or some shit............thats what i heard.


Basically only reason Drake signed to CMR was because he got one hell of a deal but knowing baby he will find a way to get in that niccaz pocket hope drake use a magnify glass to read his contract :smh::smh::smh:

The rap game = WWE

The long money is in songwriting, producing & movies

How much longer will hoes like Drake?

How long was Nelly on top & now if he puts out an album it will most likely be a flop:confused:

I wish the nigga much success, but the rap game is way too much stress...Especially dealing with a camp like Young Money.

True if Nelly puts out an album it probably will flop however he wont see that Nelly money. Nelly was the 2nd paid rapper off of albums sales next to Eminem in the last decade, Drake is hot right now but he wont even see half of that Nelly money.

If Baby is jerking him it wont last very long, because Drake is plugged in with the machine first hand(because he's jewish)
 
Drake'll be straight. I assume his lawyers sifted thru his contract well enough prior to him signing. I do hear a difference in his content. He seems to have focused on arrogance, and what he has. Also, he should market himself as either singer or rapper (preferably the latter. Don't get me wrong, he can probably pull off both, but his singing songs aren't too appealing to me.
 
I'd think that those corny nerdy type of dudes are less likely to get jerked on the business side.A dude like Drake would have no problem letting other people(lawyer and manager) speak for him.Hood cats just seem too prideful with false loyalty and would just trust a dude like Baby.This is why they always seem so hurt and betrayed when they get the short end of the stick on the business side.
As far as Drake rapping,acting doesn't pay all that much plus doesn't bring you half of the fame.Most of these entertainment cats are much more interested in fame than money.This is why beatmakers are in videos.Drake enjoys the fame he gets from being around and co-signed by Wayne.
 
On another note,dont assume that all square dudes are smart and hood cats are dumb.Alot of this shit is just acting.Even though 2Pac was often on some hood shit,he seemed far more intelligent than Kanye in interviews.

Truth. Being soft does not make you smart. It makes you safe.

Plus alot of them hood cats dont think how they can make more money when they are given a grip. Look at Peedi Crack, dude was blowing hundreds of thousands of dollars like water, instead of starting small businesses and shit...:smh:
 
i think if you deserve the money you will get the money...just stay on POSITIVE and you will be okay,,,, niggas in the past who didn't get paid were prolly fearful negative niggas who was scared of not getting paid so god hit em wit a LESSON in FEAR...SCARED money dnt make no money....... TRUTH
 
:hmm: A GROWN MAN CARING AND STARTING A THREAD ABOUT ANOTHER MAN'S INCOME, OR IF HE'S GEETIN "RAPED" BY ANOTHER MAN IN THE BUSINESS?:smh:
 
Drake is not actually signed to Cash Money. He is signed to Universal Motown or something so he can still say Cash Money cuz Universal is over Cash Money but he aint technically under Baby so he probably actually gettin his money.​

Only niggas that don't get their bread from Puff are dumbniggas who are not about their paper. Niggas from the South get their shit from Puff. Puff can't screw you over unless you sign the contract he offers. Everyone doesn't sign that shit though.

No. 20
Yung Joc (a.k.a. Jasiel Robinson)
$10 million

His sophomore album, Yung Joc City, released by the Warner Music-backed Bad Boy South division, cemented the Atlanta-born rapper as one of Sean "Diddy" Combs' most promising protégées. The album sold over a million copies. His monster hit "It's Goin' Down" had everybody dancing, including Tom Cruise at a BET junket for Mission Impossible III. Yung Joc also made a cameo appearance on "Show Stopper," the hit single from Diddy-backed girl group Danity Kane. Hustlenomics, his next album, is slated for release this summer.

There's money in rap music if you're about your business. Only niggas that make money are the ones who actually OWN shit.
 
Well, his background is not that of the average rapper. It wasn't for money, he came from it. Maybe for fame, but he did it in reverse by rapping second and acting first.

I believe he is getting his checks, regardless, whether it be royalties and/or residuals 'cause you know he gettin' show money.

Drake was smart. He actually spent his advance on making videos and recording his album, instead of buying chains and stupid shit. You know he's got Jewish lawyers on his side. He'll be alright.

Basically, ghetto nigga's happy with 30,000 and a brand new car. This nigga been in show business since he was young. He got the power of the Jew :lol::lol::lol::lol:
 
He's half Jew?those jewish people dont look at him as one of them and he's not in the same circles as them.Shit his mother is probably outted of her own family for even entertaining the thought of sleeping with a negro ,producing a child and not being married.Drake is a talented black kid who is going to the top in the eyes of the higher ups.

Drake is and is doing what is about to be the norm in hollywood in a few years where your going to have to wear many hats whether it be acting,producing,writting,singing...ect,just to be a mega star.To sell yourself and whatever your apart of.

Oh yeah if Baby is shitting on wayne,money wise,why wouldn't he do the same to Drake?He's not down with the team for nothing,he has to put in work and get crewed first because he even becomes rich.
