cutting one nikka's song from soundcloud just because it gained traction and alot of people like it more is wack

there are dozens of other remixes to that song and boo'd up on the same platforms, but because his blew up they got it removed

and i dont care if she didn't do it herself, yall are using dumb ass reasoning that pertains to her to cape for the decision

also according to yall jaquees is nobody and riding her wave so how is he somehow going to also knock her off when the original is a hit?

i could never imagine myself saying i wont let someone get shine because they did something better than i did

its ella mai song...period...funny how jaquees own material never got this much buzz
:what:

Jacquees has a plat hit just like she does
If you know Boo’d up word for word then you know B.E.D. Word for word

Take the L
:jagsdafuq:

How'd you work that one out?
nice try bozo...b.e.d. peaked at #69 on the charts...you already know where boo'd up peaked

I just looked it up on the Billboard Biz website to be sure because I know @CrimsonTider is right. These are Jacquees 3 biggest hits:













"B.E.D" was a top 5 hit on mainstream urban radio, while "At The Club" & "Ocean" were top 10 hits.


The reason Jacquees never charted that high on the Hot 100 is because most R&B artists don't do big streaming numbers to begin with.

All I was saying is you can’t tell Jaqu to get his own hits when him and Ella are in the same spot like @dora_da_destroyer said

Several posts really show a lack of know how labels work.

Ella Mai is not suing him the label is. She doesn't have control of that. Also I'm certain they suing on the basis of Jaquees making money off of it . I doubt they can sue cuz it's popular

This a non story. I'm sure this is the labels doing and they are justified if he had the shyt on Youtube.End of the day they would rather make money than not so they probably behind the scenes right now trying to work something out with him for the official remix. The problem will be what cut of the proceeds they willing to give him cuz they gonna look at it as her song and throw him a low percentage. We shall see if he accepts their terms if the song ever resurfaces or not.
