yeah the game is called POLITICS my friend......

look these LOANS can be giving out with discretion...they (loan officers) don't go by the books all the time......

i know plenty of white guys whom i've come across whom are in horrible credit situations and have debt up to thier knees, but because they KNOW somebody or got somebody to vouch for them ...they get that bread :win:

yeah it's fukked up and was exposed years ago by a phrase called "REDLINING" where banks basically single out areas with large urban communities (black) as AUTOMATICLY BEING DENITED any financing regardless how good thier credit is....


in this case with Dupri ,it's not RACE it's a case of "CLASS" and ASSOCIATION, him being affiliated with cats like LA Reid and being a figure in the Atlanta community shouldn't suprise me that he is able to acquire such a loan.

my black a$$ AIN'T connected like that.....

even though i have like a 730 credit score , never defaulted on a loan nor had a bankruptcy or repossesion and make damn good money (liquid)......

them mofos still :pacspit: on me.........like some "fukk outta here nicca ..u ain't nobody!!"

and i know the MAIN REASON i got that loan from that credit union up the street was the simple fact that the corporation i work for has business accounts thier...so "my job was my credit"..... :manny:

sad case again of ..it's not WHAT YOU KNOW..it's WHO YOU KNOW

we need to teach all of our children this important reality of life....because i can honestly say without NETWORKING i would not be in the position i am now.......

Also, he's not the first or the last of guys from that era, who will be scraping bottom soon, everyone isn't getting it like that in 2013, and haven't been for a minute now, but I bet they kept that lifestyle up.

Said it in other post and I will say it again. The majority of rappers and execs from the 90's will be involved in stories like this. Btw, a lot if rap masters really don't mean shyt in the long run. Not saying So So Def didn't have a great catalog.

Jermaine has made a lot of money over his career, he probably is not a very good money manager. I remember this dude had a resturant in Atlanta. My cousin used to work there and they never got paid on time

The problem with Dame, is that none of his projects really get off the ground now.

DD172,the reality show,His Art Gallery,Dame Dash Music Group,CEO's, Cavi,Pro Keds,BlakRoc,Roc-A-Fella (the second time), Dame Dash Motor Oil :heh:

breh, do you think that you could start 11 different business ventures in the span of a decade and still be in good financial standing if all 11 failed?

I keep telling these motherfukkers to just go into pimping :heh:

You rich as fukk.....you spend money to make money(if u aint already poor like dudes like me)

All Dupri gotta do is go into pimping.....doesn't have to be in person......u can do it behind the scenes.....

then you can take care of all your debt faster......

improvise.... you rich.....go get some free USBs from people you know......then download expensive college textbooks and sell them to students......

:heh: what a amateur
Damn u nikkas have HORRIBLE financial advice :wow:

This.

That is literally a built-in market. You have to know where the money is in this industry if you're seeking longevity.

Look at Full Force. When the industry stopped calling them, what'd they do? Reinvented themselves as boy band songwriters. You don't think they still eatin' good off them checks? :stopitslime:

Jermaine had a knack for molding kid talent. He should have stayed in that lane. There was another Kriss-Kross or Bow-Wow or Brat out there somewhere, even without having to resort to those prior gimmicks.

Hell, he should pull a Maurice Starr and find a WHITE group...his own version of One Direction.

lol the goons from house party? they eatin?

the things that are reasonable options for people in his circle... aren't even in question for regular people.

in a city like Atlanta, the stripper capital.... it would've been easily as fukk for him to start an escort service.

selling p*ssy and stripping go hand in hand... aint like he gotta wear bright pink suits and drive a cadillac and have some streetwalkers on the blade hand him cash in hand.

it really does make sense if you think about it....records might not sell, but p*ssy been selling itself for thousands of years.

Had Dash been Running So So Def, many of these atlanta rappers wouldn't be freelancing in the manner that they do.


I still don't understand it...You based in Atlanta, been apart of what made Atlanta hot... yet you can't seem to grab up any of these Atlanta cats?

i understand the nature of southern rap,and the hustle... but with all these rappers that have come out of Atlanta in the last 10 years, he's only been able to snatch up Bonecrusher,YoungBloodz and Dem Franchize Boys? :what:


I've always seen the main difference between Dame and JD is that Dame is the dude who's always looking to acquire more shyt... while JD was always trying to be apart of some shit.



Exactly

My nikka, that's actually a brilliant idea....especially if you're working on the small scale and need a hustle in school

think of it like this... most college kids are broke as fukk.

they might not have $130 for that Quantitative Analysis book... but they could hustle up $5 for a .pdf of the book....aint no different from you letting somebody borrow your book for a few days and getting some head or some cash in exchange.

shyt, put 3-5 books on a 256 MB USB drive...sell that bytch for a flat $25 and you'll be set.

especially in todays world....you can conduct transactions from your smartphone.

:salute:

Breh these dudes think I was trolling but I was dead serious.... thank you for showing them the light.

I think people in general have this really really really bad habit of saying any hustle they did when they were broke automatically wont work anymore when they are rich....

they thinking backwards......

the college pdf idea.....I brought it up becuz like I said someone like a richer person would have better luck becuz they don't gotta worry about spending all their money on 2 usb drives.....

hell they could get that from a studio

ive been downloading textbooks on pdf for the past semesters cuz I cant dela with these over expensive college books anymore....problem with me is that obviously one usb is not cheap like 2 dollars or something...

I get this feeling a lot of these celebs just lose creativity when they get richer..... thinking everything gotta be earned from either touring or music sales..

Wasn't Destiny Jones like 7 years old when she got an Executive Producer credit on "Stillmatic"? Wasn't Hailie an "executive producer" on The Eminem Show?

Get someone you cool with in the music industry and simply say you were an executive producer on the album...

But the pimping idea is obvioiusly the easiest.........dudes in here can laugh all they want but just look at the huge opportunity this dude missed...
