yall covered most of the issues. but i agree with dik cash
the problem like vic said they were acting like bosses
but they were just the figure head. fat joe acted like he owned TS
then remy ma album got fucked and he had to tell truth that it was sony
he had no say. thats how the whole beef started.
the reason why i agree with dik cash is they were using the family angle
so they were doing dirty business acting like these artist were fam
the same with rocafella records
but these artists where not just young they were in the streets
if u just seen a shootout yeah u would sign every thing
i mean 50 cent was working for puff got his shit taking
and was shot year or two later
they prey on the hungry
i disagree with dot just like i shot ya record
biggie might recorded it earlier but they
knew what they was doing releasing it
He thought big would pay him for bringing cam he knew puff would never
What's fucked up is black people can't get paid off of their talents without including white people.
Black people have to go through white record companies with white record company executives in order to get their art to the world when the white people that are including don't have the talent that they have but somehow are able to profit off of the Black Talent.
And they say we're supposed to put ourselves up by our bootstraps but they own the boot straps and even if we are wearing boots we had to buy it from their store
And then record companies owned by black people like Motown and bad boy, their owners Berry Gordy and Sean Combs did black artists as bad if not worse than the white labels would do their artists.
How much would Earth Wind & Fire be worth if they were able to solely profit off of their work? How much would New Edition be worth if they were able to solely profit off of their talent? And the New Edition story where they got ripped off is widely known

I believe if Biggie lived Cam would have been alright Mase too.
I have absolutely no proof of this.
I actually have a royalty pitbull running down on Sony for me. Found out there was bread sitting there for over 20 years. They should be cutting that check soon.
Soon you'll be range roving with the waves showin’
Who makes Bkacks hire white or jewish lawyers?
Man, there is a good old boys network that IYKYK, and we don't know
Industry Rule 4080 at play once again. By the time you realize you're fucked...
Dres should’ve just sued on his own behalf
THIS
Funny how his career and his rap persona would have you assume that 8s exactly how he would have approached it.
But I honestly think he wanted to help everyone
He did and had any of the artists he was trying to help would’ve added their name to the suit it would’ve made a difference
Those who have big hearts usually get screwed the most. The record industry is shady as fuck. I wonder what would have happened had I actually utilized the connection I made.
I got backstage and sang for Eric Benet and he gave me his manager's number and I was going through a breakup and didn't call. I wonder...
this u are right i think he should have did it himself
he should have asked around first maybe it was also a money thing
I hope Bone calls him for the new record. They been working together for years....
