The big tell is that they pay him a studio budget, own his publishing and masters lol. That's a 360. The label is invested in recouping via making the artist more popular and supporting their growth. At which point they hit you with bigger and bigger checks in hope that you continue to allow them to invest/own their career.

Once again there are massively successful artists who have signed similar deals across every genre, I'm not saying it's terrible across the board for every artist. But Drake should have the clout and cash to pay himself an album budget, partner with Roc Nation for tours, and earn as much $ as possible to buy his shyt from UMG instead of allowing that potential purchase price to go up and up. The fact of the matter is he doesn't care, he just wants the headline/big number to brag about. And given that he is ON RECORD saying he does not read contracts and lets his managers sign them...why should any of us assume he's smart enough to reach Hov's level of understanding.
OK. Where do you see that? Publishing is one thing. Where do you see Budget?

“the bulk of his recording career”… Drake basically took off in 2009. I’ve known about him since 2007. Bulk could mean up to 2018/2019 if we’re being honest. Or it could mean 99.4%. We dont know what things currently stand at.

This is all I’m saying.

I’ve heard from interviews over the years that his touring is largely owned by him I think he has his own stage team or something wild.

Again, all speculation.

It’s not that big of a deal. Drake has been with UMG for 16+ years. Of course they own a majority of his work even with renegotiations.

This Ryan Nice guy can’t be trusted. he went viral for confusing ticket prices with the actual processing fee then lied about it when he got caught as if to suggest drake’s tickets were like $20 or something. Dude is a troll.
It’s a big deal in the sense he went into a fight leading with this as such public history reveals he’s a victim to horrible deals as well lol. You can’t make this up lol. He dedicated a whole soong talking about push-ups and splits lol…… what world do people live in lol

Drake has a deal. It’s clearly a favorable one.

FFS Taylor Swift still has a DEAL.

Kendrick has a deal.

Unless you’re doing Roc Nation Distro deals then I dont wanna hear none of this boss talk.

OK. Lets clear this up.

He’s not indie. So yeah, he doesn’t own everything from here to the fukking moon.

What are we talking about?

Here yall go with this fake insider fan fiction Drake obsession shyt again ..and have the nerve to be calling people Stans..yall are in love with this man …I don’t spend as much time thinking about my broad as yall do creating imaginary scenarios about Drake :mjlol:


That tweet doesn’t say shyt other than he’s signed to a label for his music…a 360 deal involves the label getting a cut of endeavors outside the purview of his recording deal…IE touring, the Stake deal, his Nike deal, etc…yall done made up in your head that an artist making hundreds of millions of dollars via touring is a bad thing somehow…

His deal ain’t favorable lol. That’s what this is about lol. They working that boy like a slave when he would rather be hiding in a mansion fukking back page girls lol

It makes sense now why he can’t take any time off while he out here embarrassing himself

He’s suing the label while also working to pay them back lol

This nikka literally an indentured servant lol. He one of the slaves Kendrick was rapping about trying to free lmao

Brother, they own his likeness and image. Anything Drake does they get a cut off during the contract. Literally a 360. This isn’t debatable.

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
Kendrick made several diss records, with the last one breaking records
Performed a Pop Up concert
Dropped an album which had commercial success
Performed at the Super Bowl
Went on a Stadium Tour
Made J Cole disappear


there's nothing Drake can say or do that will save face. Young Money is dead. Lil Wayne Flopped. Nikki Minaj doesn't make music anymore. The South which helped give Drake street credibility has faded. Ain't nobody fukking with Drake no more. He's too old to make the music he made at the height of is career. The musical climate has changed. It changed before this rap beef battle or whatever you want to call it. Drake was trending down and Kendrick simply pushed him all the way down.

Kendrick did a stadium concert in Toronto with fans singing Not Like Us. It's over. He has no foundation.

Besides the music do we ever ask ourselves why do we care

This ain’t hip hop

We talk about court shyt and 360 deals and tour dates so much here man lol

IN this particular situation this is in direct relation to bars that Drake spit toward kendrick, then Kendrick redirected towards Drake. Dissecting Bars has always been apart of rap battles. And besides that Indian that spams all the Drake threads I don't think anyone cares when we log off

It is a big deal. It confirms he's still in a 360 and took the exact deal Hov clowned people for taking years ago. Big up front number with no real ownership. Which confirms why he's on tour and dropping albums every year now.

I'm not inherently opposed to a 360 deal depending on the artist. But you cannot pretend to be Hov while on that contract.
I mean tbf Hov been signing deals like that tho. His roc nation deal is set up they way.

The first one was 150 mill like 10-15 years ago where they gave him that upfront for money on the back end.

And then he reup for like 250 million afterwards.
