lol, the big wigs at UMG wouldn't find pusha t in a crowd. both artists are signed to UMG so I'm sure there's industry characters backing pusha t. nothing to see here

Sensing an obvious conflict of interest with this one. Particularly, Nicki and her relationship with Drake. The only thing I think Karen's bytch ass can do is be neutral in this situation afaik

She's more loyal to Pusha in this because of the Presidential promo he did for her. She may not help Pusha outwardly but best believe she gonna dead any negative stories about him.

goons in the cut tryna talk you out yo necklace
I feel like if he was fully ahead of it like he thought he wouldve been addressed that photo and the child.

He wouldnt have taken the Pusha bait.
He has addressed it before "talking strippers and models tryna gain attention even a couple porn stars I'm ashamed to mention" and "Calamari rings and tomato... I got the sauce now bytches claiming preggo" it's just we just took them as bars. I really think he thought this was just Pusha being Pusha talking shyt and he wanted album promo. It wasn't :mjcry:

I noticed that too.

But why?

Arent both Pusha & Drake employees under universal?

Why would the execs side with the less profitable employee?

Drake and Oliver took OVO to Warner.
Meanwhile Drake resigned his deal and at the same time signed a deal with Apple Music.
With how well the relationship with Apple is going by the time renegotiations come around hell probably just let the contract end.

Also UMG is playing like Birdman in that Cash Money case. From the way he talkin he off that.

Like Drake or not. That shyt is crazy. nikka on his 9th summer on the charts with no year w/o a charting. If we starting at BIEH. Even though Replacement Girl was in 06.

Not that this is accurate, but I do feel label execs feel some type of way about the dominance of hip hop right now. They can’t really control it or the narrative.

Drake is like Swiss Army knife of music and is able to do so much musically. He’s also helping and one of the main reasons hip hop is so dominant right now. He’s pretty much helping a lot of rappers eat cause everything he touches turns to gold.

What better way to stop the dominance of hip hop than to take out the main dude who’s controlling so much in music.

ALL THIS. plus the fact nikka drops music when he want to, the Apple deal & they can't control him

Ask yourself this..
Which one has the Apple Music deal?
Which one doesn't need the traditional model of marketing and record sales to appease his core audience ?
Which one is allegedly projected to garner a BILLION streams with a project that hasn't been released yet?

It kinda reminds me of how warner bros went out of thier way to slander Prince (and no Drake will never be in the same air as Prince) when Prince was one of the pioneers of the digital movement.

:russ:

Nah but, this is prolly some "you gettin too big for your britches" shyt.

Same thing they do to all black celebs when they reach a certain point.

Especially when those celebs start making moves to get to the real money in the business.

I see Coli aint all lost hope. I noticed all this a minute ago. Drake the only one putting on these underground rappers using his own platform : OVO sound Radio, OVO fest, etc. This nikka out here talkin bout hiigher ups & money on his head. That Apple deal prolly did it. You dont even hear bout Frank Ocean no more

Drake stans during Meek vs Drake: "There's no corporate machine in place making Drake win. What a ridiculous conspiracy theory."

Drake stans during Push vs Drake: "There's obviously a corporate machine in place making Push win. Anyone that can't see that is blind."
