Why do people need Jay to own 100% of everything he does![]()
because he fronts like hes the majority owner of all these things when hes usually just a company mascot with 0.01% stake.

If you’re given/fronted an advance and the expectation is you’re contractually obligated to tour so there is a ROI on Live Nation’s investment (and a profit for subject)
It’s not that’s its beneath you it’s a requirement.
Music can be your passion and you can record in the studio but touring is absolutely grueling. I don't think you understand how tough it is on your body to travel city to city living out of hotels for months at a time.
I've been on tour as a DJ. My mentor is a famous DJ. It's mind boggling that anyone who's a BILLIONAIRE and damn near 50 would still have the desire to tour especially with kids at home.........unless they absolutely had to to maintain their lifestyle.
This Jay Z likes to pretend that he is the boss when he has bosses...like every rapper![]()
Because you love performing, have you seen these old ass rock bands rich as fukk near 100 years old still touring? Bob Dylan has been on tour for 25 years straight. Have you seen the thousands of karaoke places around the world?
Now add that you make millions for an hours or two, these people grossed 100 million bucks for like 19 shows. Now you can take that 100 million and buy more buildings, donate more to protestors, help more people in Africa, send more people to college and invest in more to make more. All made possible from doing what you love? How does that not make sense.
It's like asking why do billionaire CEOs go to work at 8 every morning and work 12 hour days? Cause they enjoy it, not cause they have to. Add to that they make more money. Warren Buffett lives like he makes 400k per year and work 12 hours a day in his average ass Nebraska office and he's worth what? 70- 80 billion?
The Nets minority ownership thing was basically public knowledge.
If your a man with massive clout & money you do what you want no one is making jay tour unless hes getting paid handsomely & he is whether he's really a billionaire or not
Would you rather invest in a idea & not make no money for the first few yrs or make 200 mil from basically a partnership & all they asking from you is to perform
No man is owned if your being paid & able to get paid in other business ventures i can see if that was his only income

You do what you’re contractually obligated to do my g.. not what you want!
How old are you?
Why do you keep using the word owned? I never said Live Nation owns Jay z.

Curtis Sc00n having stans is the weirdest shyt to me, there are grown ass men who spend all day sending that old nikka articles and stories waiting to hear his point of view on things, dude is an old bitter clown trying to carve out relevancy on twitter. shyt is embarrassing.
oh so you've seen his bank statements ????
dudes watching another mans pockets for a decade ..... smh Id be ashamed to even admit that to myself ...... lol
My dude whether hes a billionaire, millionaire or dead ass broke its not going to affect your life either way ..... maybe you need to focus on other things


My nikka we talking about a rapper that flies private. You really think Jay hoppin' on a tour busI'm with you on the some enjoy touring bit. But travelling consistently on the road on a bus
at that age
touring with a bunch of stage handsand back up dancers
I'm all for everyone one is equal no one above another
but
You think MJ at his age almost on his death bed wanted or needed to be touring before he died
I wouldn't say they need money the way you and I would see it. But those contracts, and the type of upfront money they receive, not to mention they really don't work for themselvesBut other people i think necessitates this never ending modern day shucking and jiving.
If it was for the love, think it would be just condensed tours/ but just my opinion.![]()
