Put some respect on Birdman name he’s never been as bad as the media portrayed him & not worst than Puffy with his artist/label

P pulled the same stunts...

He played it fair with snoop because it benefited him to do so...

But beats by the pound and others got screwed

Mr. Serv-On said P paid him

Mia X wasnt complaining

Fiend either

Stop.


Baby = a scourge


They were all the same.

With the same disclaimer.

Do not entertain culture thieves.


Simple as that.

Nah, as much as I like Birdman the character, Baby almost caused Mannie Fresh to go to prison for tax fraud bc when they were touring as Big Tymers, the promoter would ppay them $50k(or whatever) per show, Birdman told Mannie they were getting like $25K, so Mannie got $12.5k per show, but the taxes were reporting half the $50k, which is what Birdman reported to the IRS.

So when it cqme time, Fresh owed the IRS a ton of money that he never even made

This.
Only thing commendable about master p.
Was that master p disclosed all the tricknolofy in the industry from payola etc. When he first started his web venture. To pay it forward as a prohibitive tale.

Which imo,..
Is why master p after all his bullshyt is still the realistic dirt in their name music mogul of that era.

Fiddy is the best music mogul of contemporaries who ever had or earned power as a rap artist and was black.

the only one that gave artist with talent and an actual cultural connection to hiphop

if they fit into g unit's model and had some array of talent.
To beat the odds if they were not necessarily g unit guys

Are there any Black label heads that dont rip their artists off :jbhmm:

Are the only ethical label heads white :jbhmm: I never see any smoke for them:mjpls:
Of course there are black ones, just over smaller labels. Not your diddy or birdman.

They larger ones want "equality" just so they can rip off like the white execs

I think one of the issues is that a lot of the black execs are very visible and are artists themselves. The line between peer and exec gets extremely blurry.

Because you aren’t paying attention. White artists have all these same complaints.
