Agreed someone should have looked over it. But looking over contracts yourself is a easy way to get finessed

I hope Westside ain’t gonna do no bullshyt like keep his brother’s masters
You're supposed to double check everything ESPECIALLY if it involves FAMILY!!
Have you ever seen what happens to family when an inheritance is up for grabs or a will is disputed?

It don’t matter WHO it is, read your paperwork.

If you watch the interview he takes 100% accountability for not reading the contract and says he learned from it and won’t make the same mistake again. He said he learned not to trust ANYONE and to make sure he reads every word and has Lawyers

WELL EXCUUUUSE ME WESTSIDE
This post don't make sense, Conway had nothing. They was nothing when those deals were signed.Was Coles contract good though? Cole I understand, dude had nothing at all. Nobody had even heard his name. You’re standing out in the cold trying to pass your cd to Jay and friends, then outta nowhere Jay tells you he’s making you his new franchise player on the rap side, whereas Rihanna is on the RnB side. Of course dudes are signing that quick as fukk.
Cole is a college graduate though and a hiphop nerd, he should’ve been smarter.
edit, it was Wes who snakes him??

These same fools don’t even read the chit they sign in their lives.
I could never imagine fukking over my family, but snakes are everywhere.
Just from reading between the lines it doesn’t seem like Conway understood that he was an ARTIST on Griselda and not a partner. He mentions several times how he built Griselda was there in the mud getting their rep up. Also he mentions that being signed to three labels didn’t go in his favor (Interscope, Shady, Griselda) and that he mostly signed to Shady because he A). Wanted to seek mentorship from Eminem and B). He thought that Em and the label could do for him what they did for 50 Cent as far as taking a super street MC and marketing him to the mainstream.
He also mentions having Big records with Big artists that he can’t release to clearances. Seems to me like he was alluding more to Shady and Interscope not being such a good label to get a “push” from as he expected. Said that he only spoke to Em a few times and it was all business.
I get the feeling that he thought signing to a Major would be an opportunity for more exposure and working easily with bigger artists but he basically could have stayed Independent and gotten the same results
He also mentioned that a deal with Roc Nation was on the table at the same time the Shady Records deal was and they went with Em
