Genuine question, cuz Twitter been lighting his ass up ever since he wrote that open letter to corporations and Black Robb posting from the hispital.

Is Diddy responsible for his current artists situations?

Should Diddy be buying houses and paying off medical debt for certain people?

Did Diddy fuk over his artists when it comes to money? If so was it intentional or the industry standard?

What y'all think.


be4 u read a 16

better read that contract.

..not diddys fault

I don't think anyone gives a fukk about J. Prince.

But Diddy and Baby are both known for exploiting their artists, actively skimming money or outright not paying them, and signing them to twisted deals.

This isn't a relationship where you're "just" an employee and they're the head of the company having never met you.

They reached out to and signed artists, guided them through the process, instilled trust, and then robbed them blind.

Wayne had to fight a court battle for years to get the hundreds of millions Baby owed him.

What you say has been proven in court about Baby.
I've never been aware of Puff not adhering to a contract or skimming money, etc.

Nope because diddy did everything possible to make sure his artist had success.
HE ALSO SUCKERED ALL
OF THOSE YOUNG ARTISTS
OUT OF THEIR PUBLISHING....


BIGGIE, MASE, LOX ETC.

DUDE WAS IN THE INDUSTRY
FOR YRS BEFORE BADBOY
AND HE USED THAT KNOWLEDGE
TO GET OVER ON HIS ARTISTS
WHILE PRETENDING TO BE THE HOMIE.

They do.. it's called health insurance. They pay most of the premium.

:pachaha:

That’s not how that works...... it’s not even comparable to the analogy..... and is just flat out wrong.... in order for your post to make a modicum of sense... ROB would still have to be employed by Bad Boy at the least... and of course he isn’t at the moment

I always hate this discussion because people generally jump to conclusions.
How well does anyone understand the complexities of a record contract? If you do, that's great.
Now the next point: Who has seen one of these 'terrible' Puff contracts? Why is it terrible? Is it different than the standard contract that was being signed during that time?

Until it is proven that Puff was signing his artists to contracts that were worse than the industry standard then this is a dumb conversation that we are having.

How do you determine who is at fault for another person’s situation?

When you're a grown man any situation you're in (unless it's an accident where you're not at fault or a sneak attack) is usually you're own fault.

After all these years not being a selling artist it's on rob to set himself up as an adult to make sure he and his family is setup for the future.

Diddy is a scumbag to the core, he has some nerve talking about exploitation in Corporate America when he has been ripping off artists since the 90s....

How many folks who grew up around peoole who are doing bad (usually of their own fault) reach out to give them something to help out? Diddy probably last dealt with Rob 20 years ago if he's a hypocrite then most of us are
On thing life has taught me is people might not be where they want to be in life but they're comfortable where they're at. As a person that's stepped into the lives of others and tried to help them when you do stuff like that people will typically just drain your resources and maintain their current position in life. It takes a rare person to actually utilize the assistance of someone else to improve their standing in life.

I feel the same way especially when it comes to dudes rob's age. Better spend money and energy on the younger generation, kids you can teach work ethic and responsibility.

I'll just say this / as a business man myself:pachaha:

How many of these Diddy malcontents:jbhmm:
Complained and sought other business opportunities at their heights? W/ other labels:umad: and I'm not talking moving on when washed up:shaq2:

There have been plenty of artist that have moved on I. The midst of blowing up and got bought out of contracts....

But of these bad boy malcontents how much of it is after the dust settles And monies blown:damn:

How many of you expect your employer to personally pay your medical bills:dahell:

Any health concerns and economical investments should all be discussed before one signs on for employment:lawd:


Many are harder on (BLK) execs they just expect more because of colour assume they understand the struggle:ohlawd:

But good business practice/ and wise economic decisions are needed on both sides of the table.

These aren't toddlers he's signed

Not saying everything was kosher:hubie:

But come on:gucci:
