He made them look stupid. No one forced them to sign the contract without reading it over.
I'm usually not "fukk the industry" but poor kids from the hood might not be the most rational cats when it comes to signing contracts worth a lot of money, specially not when the counter party is industry legends and Ivey League lawyers. You could probably go to the hood right now and get a few cats to sign away their lives. It's taking advantage of young ignorant people.

However, Puff was not wrong.. Anyone would obviously try to maximize their profit and Lox would probably not be shyt without Puff.

Berry Gordy no longer owns Jobete, he sold the remaining 20% share to EMI for 80 million in 2004

but I agree he is just as gangsta....when Method and Mary did "Your All I Need" by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell only way Jobete was gonna clear the rights to it, is if 50% of the mechanical and ALL the publishing royalty remained with Jobete/Motown................

Method Man made NO BREAD on that song :snoop:

:wow:
