I'm caught up.

First off, Parks is a dikk rider, a coward, a yes-man...lacks integrity. He is fake as fukk. shyts on them publicly then says 'I love Rory...love Mal.' Worst type of person. I can't express how much I hate this type of person.

Joe Budden clearly has issues. Any of his rap fans shouldn't be surprised at this based on his previous actions against labels and label heads. Whether he is right or wrong about the firing doesn't concern me, but the emotional way he handles things... come on Joe, show some growth. Having said that, one thing that sticks with me is that he should've checked Akademiks for disrespecting Rory and Mal (while they were all still 'friends').

I don't know what's going on with Rory and Mal but I am eager to hear their side of the story. I can't imagine that they would throw this all away for nothing. Making 6-figures and trashing it? There has to be more to the story.

For all 4 of them to continually say 'Its not about money' when it clearly is about money was disappointing. They were either lying to us (which is highly disrespectful) or they greatly misunderstood the situation. Accounting = Money. I never heard of an accountant who deals in friendship or respect.

Anyways, I'm out. Parks is insufferable, Joe needs help and I'm not interested in hearing Ish and Ice have conversations like they are in their early to mid 20s. That shyt is stale. In my opinion, Joe should go the Rogan route and make it a guest based show since he is incapable on maintaining long term relationships (with a few exceptions). Even then, I wouldn't listen to it since Parks is involved.

Seems like Joe realized Rory and Mal outlived their usefulness and felt he needed to blow this up before the next deal.

:yeshrug:

I think it’s deeper than that. Joe seemed fine with them not being useful (his words) as long as they weren’t fukking up the pod (his opinion). As soon as their shyt affected the bigger picture it’s time for them to go.



so why did joe spend all this time building them up about creators this, creators that...when he clearly was talking about himself? nikka had them thinking they were decision makers when they weren't.


Because it’s painfully obvious now that he never saw them as creatives. If everything he said is true, he treated them as such the whole way thorough:
  • Never gave them ownership and continued to tell them no every time they brought it up
  • Never brought them in on negotiations
  • Was responsible for funding the endeavor and paying the crew
  • Gave them worker/employee contracts
  • Had the final say on all things related to the pod and didn’t run shyt by them
  • Didn’t want to show the books
  • Etc….
For me, if somebody treated me like that, I already know what it is. Doesn’t have to even get contentious. Either I’m gonna find a better situation elsewhere or I’m going to position myself in that situation to make sure it’s as beneficial as possible to me.

That's a disingenuous comparison. The Breakfast Club is owned by a major broadcasting entity. A podcast is some shyt you can create with a mic and your boys. Yall really acting like they weren't there for the pod's biggest growth period.

you aren’t cooking up any &
JBP related comic content? I’ve been waiting for a meme of Joe in the empty basement like Will on the lady episode of Fresh Prince :russ:

Na
Yall talking ownership.
Charlemagne, envy and Angela yee are more popular and essential to the breakfast than mal and Rory to JBP and they don’t even have ownership in the breakfast club. They been doing it for almost 10 years. At most, Charlemagne got partnership deal with a podcast network.

That ownership talk ain’t for everybody. You gonna become a partial owner of the pod and do what wit it? Nothing :childplease:
Angela Yee could leave tomorrow and no one would care

Envy too

Ehh nah the base definitely not with Rory lol. They was already ready to move on to ish and ice.
Yall keep bringing up those 2-3weeks where Joe made sure to make clear that Rory and Mal could come back and most of the fans thought they were. Joe just ended things in the most tasteless way possible lol. There probably won't be any bounceback when the numbers drop this time lol.

Mal and Rory were making 6 figs to basically sit and play 2nd fiddle to Joes conversations about strip clubs and shallow hip-hop discussions and play a couple songs at the end.

And to do it only 2 days a week. Outside of being a legit celebrity, where can you work 6 hours a week as a side kick and make 6figs?

You got 4 or 5 other whole days to do your own thing on the side.

On the flip, we all saw how quiet they were when Joe wnt on his Spotify rant several months ago. So him turning down deal money they probably were already anticipating in their head, probably made the situation a slow drip.

Joe did this when Rogen signed with Spotify, get off his nuts.
they arent even remotely the same :heh:

Joe was trying to see what the top dog in his space was getting to gauge his own worth

Rory was pocket watching his "friends" and questioning why they were getting paid so much all while being phony,smiling in nikkas face,acting like the money dont matter

how can you even compare the 2 situations :dahell:
