Latest Swae Lee/Slim Jimmi album went double plywood, it's desperation making him reach out to a fruit bat.

I don't really know how this is burning bridges, it seems like they closed him out first anyways.

Dude actually looking out for himself and doing stuff like this is actually how you stay relevant.

The industry ain't pretty, so why be the sucker trying to "do right"?

If you got something now, flex. Fans actually like this kind of energy and the underdog getting their's.

That said, Metro seems like a standup dude though, hate that he was a part of the collateral.

Business is about relationships. You never know when you might need someone or if they will blow up so it's best to maintain a good relationship and not burn bridges. That's business 101.

If they were ignoring him then they failed to maintain a good relationship with him and burnt that bridge then it is what it is.
On top of this, the "business" is based on art, and this particular art is demonstrative and often collaborative, and along with the competition breeds mutual admiration/respect for one's work.

Brehs talking like this business is stock portfolios.
