Badboy contract wasn't different from anyone elses
but not everyone that was on Bad Boy had the same fate as Rob. Mase is still alive, he’s in good enough health and wealth from what I can tell. I don’t see The Lox homeless and having strokes and heart attacks. Biggies fate had nothing to do with Puffy himself as far as his health goes (I’m not getting into who killed BIG or why), G Dep caused his own problems by murdering some guy and turning himself in for it, nothing to do with Puff. Puff didn’t make Black Rob go to jail or give him bad health and like Mega said, Puff even tried to help, there’s plenty of pics of Rob back in the studio with Puff, he went on tour with him. You think he didn’t get paid for the tour dates? Or for writing some songs?
Perhaps, but why is it that every artist from Bad Boy becomes a one-hot wonder that fades into obscurity? Either he targets a certain type...in which case he's an opportunist...or he's the standard industry exec but at the same time blocks them from ever being successful after him. Either way, there's something about him that drains those around him - he's the common denominator.
The Lox and Faith are the only artists that came from the Bad Boy roster that had success past 1 album. It took the Lox 2-3 years of campaigning publicly to receive some type of freedom. While every BB artist doesn't have the same fate, they still share the same fate. I'm not saying he should change his exec ways, since that's what got him there. He honestly doesn't owe them ish, but if no one that comes up under you becomes successful, that says a lot about you.
