How can he still be eating off it?... Who still or what is still playing that album?... Who is calling dame to play that album?
obviously people are buying it if there is this huge discussion about owning the publishing :what:

this is regarded as a classic album :dahell:

Peace to referencing the 20 year anniversary of Illmatic like it broke records or some shyt.:russ:

What did that whole thing bring in profit-wise, what $5 or $10 million, being super generous? And that's supposedly the holy grail of "real hip hop heads, yo". :stopitslime:

It's not about what the jerk off public says they care about on free message boards, it's about how much of their budget is spent on what they say they care about. The only ppl who give a shyt about Reasonable Doubt are:flabbynsick: broke ass fans on message boards.

Face it brehs, to make real money off ur catalogue u have to have :flabbynsick: Cac fans willing to kill their own mother to spend their life savings to purchase memorabilia from the :flabbynsick: tour alone.

Hip hop makes their money off passive suburban white teenage fans. It's completely disposable as a financial commodity. Here's a way to judge possible returns on a nostalgic enterprise like this when people start circle jerking:

Look at the biggest tours and albums within a 3 year span proceeding and preceding your chosen :flabbynsick: rap project. Look at their total receipts from album sales and touring then compare those numbers to ur beloved :flabbynsick:rap project's #'s.

Now you tell me if you're gonna quit YOUR job on a gamble to get invest0rs to put together an anniversary campaign for your beloved project that doesn't have the marketing power legacy wise to even justify a meeting with a potential financier.

Cacz were retiring and putting kids thru college based on the fukking Eagles reuniting 20 years ago. Ain't nobody bout to create wealth on these bullshyt catalogues. Just enjoy the music for it's nostalgic qualities and KIM, srsly brehs.

Best believe jay gonna try to rewrite history when that shyt hits 20 next year
He has no choice, he's cut off virtually everyone who had creative and financial input on the project's initial release.

I mean, he COULD take about $2 million and go on an apology tour paying off all the :flabbynsick::krs: broke ass nikkas that helped him on it so they could pretend to have love for him in a retrospective documentary and tour.

But wowsers, Mary J. was the biggest name to collaborate on the that LP, besides BIG, and she's :flabbynsick: as fukk now.:sadcam:
Viral marketing is so pervasive now that kids think because they see an ad for something on more than 2 websites that it's making money.:skip:

People over the world who license the music to play in jukebox's, video games, compilations and movies we know nothing about...
Exactly! Don't forget television... Radio.... samples...interpolations, covers...touring... etc.. Reasonable Doubt is one of the most famous, influential and top selling artists of all time's FIRST album (Which some consider his best).. Regarded in several publications, blogs, websites, polls as a Classic album.. Trust me, that album has generated, and continues to generate millions.. In the future, it will be worth ALOT MORE!

Nothing
He's speaking of ownership yet jay-z was the rapper who laid the vocals, dame dash sounds butt-hurt because jay-z was thinking money while he (dame) was thinking friendship.

Business and Buddies don't mix like 2 dikks and no chicks, find yourself in some deep shyt (word to Biggie)

Most famous?

I don't think a fraction of people know it.
