y'all love this argument and it's a really shytty oneIf only they were that aggressive whilst signing their contracts
Yes, music contracts are horrible but 9 times out of 10, people are in horrible circumstances at the time of signing these deals. Usually living in extreme poverty, and young. You're 18-20 year old kids from Prospect Plaza In Brownsville, Billy Danze had just came home from prison, Fame's brother was killed, and a record label offers you a record deal, a decent advance to put some money in your pocket and pay your bills, you're gonna sign it.
Not to mention, record labels actually do other things like spend money on distribution and promotion, so they are entitled to profits because they put the up front money to make the project come together
Bootleggers literally do nothing for the artists. They get money for themselves selling shyt you worked for. They didn't put money up to help you put the album together, to help you sell it. They just take your work and sell it for themselves.
So the comparison is dumb.
stop it breh, you're dealing with geniusses here who never made one mistake in their lives

signing one bad deal is a mistake, but to keep signing bad deals throughout your career isn't a mistake, it's stupidity. Like the Lox renegotiating with Bad Boy a year or 2 ago hahah

They apparently made real good bread off both the Roc and G-Unit deals so

I doubt they made any money off those deals. They didn't even put out anything on either label
If you think artists only get money from deals when they put out albums, you are severely misinformed breh
They said they got good advances from both and both let them go with no issues, nothing to pay back, nothing. I think they made out relatively well.
