I'm pretty sure he still makes good money touring and DJing.
If he's publishing game is right then from Just A Friend alone. Didn't HotPockets just used him for a new commercial?
My man just booked Large Pro for 10Gs for a gig out in Asia. He tried to get Q-Tip but he asked for 2~30Gs.
Old school legends are eating good if they're not strung out on drugs or something like that.

Classic catalogue = Long Term Money

:win:


Biz caked up. I was at Essence fest this past summer in New Orleans. He DJ'd a huge party. He's been doing stuff like that for over two decades now.

I actually took a DJ'n class in DC where he teaches the class. lol

just something to do with me and the fellas. He teaches them here and there. Only like 35.00 a session

his debut may be the only one that competes w/ shans as the most slept on ever. even his all samples cleared album had dope production. dude always told some good stories. i know kane wrote half of his debut, but did biz ever write any of his albums completely?

Yeah, low key, Biz is like an icon. Not on Snoop's level but he can just be himself and get recognized and loved by a lot of people across race and generation.
Hipster whiteboys love old school rap too (my wife's co-worker is a gay dude named Doug and calls himself Doug E Phrecious, lol) and as long as they're around, old school legends will make money.
