It's crazy when u think about how much money The Neptunes made the music industry.... Just imagine if they has an Admin deal as opposed to a pub deal early on.... They'd be giving Dr. Luke a run....:wow:

Whats a admin deal breh?

It's a lot to explain, but it basically gives you full ownership of your publishing... So instead of signing with a major pub company and losing more than 50% ownership (and a whole lot more other shyt), you maintain 100% of ur pub income (if u sign with an admin company they take a commission on what comes in, but no ownership).

So to some it all up, Luke has all the power, ownership, and control of his shyt. A hit song can generate A LOT of money. He sees all this money with nobody taking a huge cut & ownership. Put it like this, Benny Blanco made A TON of money. He was signed to Luke's pub company (which he owns fully). If Benny is is making $$$, imagine how the dude who owns everything feels.

There's a lot more to it. I just wanted to give u the gist of it.

It's crazy knowing Dr. Luke has nearly $100 Million in the bank & this dude *ALWAYS* looks like a bum... white tee, levi's & some converse... :skip:

Meanwhile your favorite rapper is frontin' driving around in label rented vehicles, "gifted" money to blow at clubs for image, borrowed clothes, fake jewelry & making less then $50,000 a year when the label comes to collect what they owe... :mjpls:

Why do people keep bringing up blurred lines as if pharell/Neptunes don't have dozens of more hits they produced?
