If i remember correctly, he used to eat pieces of wall at the studio :merchant:

Duke used to get mad at his wife and drop kick the corner of the room for a piece of dry wall to chew on.

Remy spoke on this too. She said she signed part of her money away to go straight to Pun's people but later found out it never got to them so she doubled back and broke them off personally. Cuban Link said he got screwed over by Joe as well. I think there is some funny business going on here. Even DMX wife was talking in a forbezdvd.com interview about how they not getting nothing from music and X is one of the biggest selling artist there is so it's not like this stuff doesn't go on. I just hope the truth comes out and all of this is resolved once and for all.

The reason I mentioned the ringtones was that if you remember when 50 had Interscope audited he found out he had millions owed to him through ringtone revenue. Pun might have money owed in another form other than direct sales of songs/albums. Even if he isn't really selling like that, that doesn't mean that money wasn't/isn't being generated from his music somehow that he's owed. It's not like no money was ever been made after Joe broke off his widow.

I don't recall Cuban ever saying anything about bread. He just didn't like where the career was headed. When he left TS, he and Joe shook hands with no ill will.

Pun's kids should have a trust set for them with the money he's generated post death, plus the wife with funds to care for the kids. Wife and kids should always be set for life when the bread maker/ head of household dies.

She's sued Joe like 5 times.

This speaks more to where Pun's business acumen was, more than it does Joe stealing from him. At one point, she was praising Joe for taking care of her financially after Pun passed away. He was paying for the kids' tuition and all kinds of shyt. I believe he said he was doing this out of his own pocket. The way it looks, Pun's papers weren't straight and he passed without getting those in order. I'm pretty sure Steve Rifkind made way more bread off of Pun than Joe did, but she's always had this problem with Joe. She bashed Pun after he passed and called him a "woman beater', then she went on to talk about how she wants to keep his legacy alive. LOL!! She's wild.

Cuban Link Says Fat Joe Screwed Him & The Rest of Terror Squad
June 02, 2014
DX:
I spoke to Armageddon, and he said he asked you about a Terror Squad reunion and you said you couldn’t do it…

Cuban Link: Yeah, I told him I could do it but without the fat dude there. I told him the Fat Joe situation ain’t gonna ever be resolved. I can’t do business with a man like that. I’ve seen his businesses practices before in the past, and it led us all to be a ruined empire just by a personal association with him. Besides being a friend with him back in the day, the business dealings, I didn’t ever agree with him. I don’t think that could happen in a business sense with Joe attached to it. I told him if it was just the rest of the crew, I’d be more than willing to do it as long as the numbers is right.

DX: How did your relationship sour with Joe, was it just business?

Cuban Link: It was business. It was definitely business dealings that he was doing before when we was coming up, even when Pun was around. He would do greedy moves. I was there for it and I would tell him, “My dude, isn’t 20% enough? Why do you have to put yourself out in front of your own artists to get yourself paid and leave us behind in the dust? You’re supposed to be reppin’ us and pushing us instead of us making ways for new business ventures and you cut our throats. We gave you the permission to be on top and speak for us, and then you cut our throat and block us out.”

That’s what he was doing from the beginning. He was a friend back then, and that kind of overshadowed a lot of funny business shyt he was doing. At the end of the day, we were still friends and he would do shyt like that. I would tell him, “Yo, my nikka, I know what you’re doing. You don’t gotta do that. You got a real crew here that got talent and backing you up 100; you should treat nikkas fair.” That greedy shyt played out over the years later. You can see the whole Terror Squad now and how that became [what it became]. I wasn’t speaking bullshyt when I was there.
