I think Mase remained signed to Bad Boy for a long time, after 1999, Puff just didn't enforce the contract?

No question Puff exercised less than good intentions and was a callous businessman to a degree, but also Mase made millions by early 20's and quit the game. I have heard and read he lives in San Diego part time, just up in Carlsbad, which is so bizarre.

Puff letting his artists use his cars for their videos and then turning around and charging them 2x the price to do so :wow: AND he charging them for his own damn cameo/dancing :mjlol: :camby:

THIS the dude talking about he for the artist? He for whatever benefits him the most :mjgrin:

Still remember that interview mase did when he said puff told him to take a vacation before some album roll out or some shyt so he went to some island and kicked it came back and found out puffy charged him for it and he was going to recoup it on mase album :wow:

lol.. bro, so you telling me a blind nygga like Ray Charles who owned his publishing and MASTERS with no business accumen can do it....

Why Mase couldnt? And yeah Biggie sold half his to Puffy, but its because he was blowing through his money and needed some. Thats on Big..

You can't expect a 19 yr old to understand that kinda business acumen bruh.

This is lil shawn I hope some of you know who he Is

But any way he brought up a big point made Leaving out


Mase renegotiated his contract got a big check woke up and said he want to become a pastor



And NEVER paid that money back diddy did not chase him down for it


Now I wonder why Mase did not say that part


Also was not made in trouble for stealing money from his church?


Anyway keep it going


:ehh:

lil shawn need to stay out of other people's business, a lot of chatty patty shyt he put in that caption

People always talking about Puff "getting his"..how about rappers get real lawyers to go over paperwork.

Only a fool would trust a lawyer that's employed by the record label to vouch for a contract.

It's easier to play the victim than to admit to making an awful decision :yeshrug:

NY all day..Da Stead & BK..
But if its the truth why is it defending?


Is it just one way?

Or no one can say the others side?



just a question :ehh:
How bout Lil Shawn stay out of them nikkas business? And worry bout his own shyt. Not even saying he’s lying, But Diddy can def speak for himself. And Lil Shawn wasn’t around for or physically dealt with anything Mase has signed. And Diddy has DEFINITELY done some straight greasy shyt to a few of his artists before. Mase ain’t innocent either so we’ll see how this plays out.

I kinda get both sides...Puff probably bought those publishing rights when there was no guarantee that they’d be worth shyt...we used to clown acts all the time for flopping, but it’s not the artist takes taking the L when an album doesn’t recoup...all the recording costs, marketing, wardrobe, travel, security, radio payola, etc everything else that goes into an album budget...none of that is paid for upfront by the artist, all risk incurred by the label...the vast majority of signed artist don’t draw a dime, and the entire game is subsidized by the handful of ones that actually are widely successful.... then you have somebody like Mase who had one successful album, who takes the advance for a 2nd half assed album (a late 90s boom era major label advance mind you), barely promotes it, leaving it to flop...while he skates off to Atl to pimp old church ladies outta their savings with the preacher hustle....who took that L? You’re not gonna shame me out of what legally and willfully agreed to...be mad on Twitter nikka, while I spend your publishing checks tricking on bad ass 20something year old broads that have no memory of Harlem World in real time :takedat:
