I think the older we get, we forget how old some of these guys are
I was watching a video and an out of touch white guys asked if Lil Wayne is currently MC Hammer status and all the people were like "No" and truth is; YES!
Get it How You Live came out in 1997!
Wasn't nobody bumping Hammer in 1998, 99 or 00
500 Degrees came out in 2002
Paid In Full dropped in came out in 1987
That's a 15 year gap
Tha Carter came out in 2004...19 YEARS AGO
Artist have a long shelf life because of social media and more TV

This. Logic has some production credits on his joints.
Like i say in all these threads, these artist know exactly how much money their music is making them every quarter, but for some reason the coli seems to know the breakdown of all the financials to know what’s a good deal or not.
Its getting hot in here alone has more global recognition than anything logic has put out. Nelly’s catalog has longterm classics. This is true value when the equity firm will hope to license it out to as many places and demographics as possible

I swear I hear nelly songs in ransoms movies all the time.
$50M for half his catalog when he really only had hits in the first half is good as fukk. Future got more hits n shyt that’s gon stream than him and got what? $80M?
Wtf..thata nowhere near enough..I play Ride Wit Me all the time on YouTube Prem...crazy.
His album went fukking diamond..this isn't no Soldier Boy type shyt.
I work in finance and I don’t shyt about valuation of discographies but Hot In Here and ride with me will be booming until the aliens come as will the song with Kelly. Don’t know shyt about strip clubs but EI and tip drill will turn up any function.
I’m just thinking Ja got super fukked by Irv and I understand Irvs price cause Ja’s hits are basically Motown singalong for my generation and the current one too.
Basically what we are learning is hits reign supreme cause they are forever. In 2023, a dj goes from Marvin to Nelly to Nina sky. And a work out playlist goes from DMX to house music to Nelly. That shyt is not about to disappear, cause those hits are on that other level

HYSA at 4% and he will be seeing $2 million a year on that. Obviously there's taxes in play for that 50million but still. On a lower scale I took all my cash out of Wells Fargo and put it in a HYSA while the % are still good.
