swizz beats should 100% not be a mogul over basically any NY producer
I have no clue what point you're trying to make
especially with Mannie when I stated that Cash Money just stopped fukking with him
I said Swizz Beats alone is a megastar just off DMX back. He's receiving royalties everytime you listen to DMX first 3 albums since 1999 and they all sold millions of copies. If he quit music after he would still have more money than 90% of producers just based on DMX's sales.
Mannie did all of Carter 1 and then he was nowhere near Carter 2 ... Cash Money just left him, which isnt his fault or the point. But he doesnt get the same $$$ because the entire world will only listen to DMX first 3 albums forever. Millions of people arent still listening to Still Fly or Bling Bling ... Wayne isnt even associated with Mannie Fresh's sound anymore
Dmx's career carries 70% of Swizz beats career
saying he's supposed to be a mogul proves the point. He's not supposed to be... if you pretend he doesnt ever record with DMX then his career is just a dude with a dope single every once in awhile with 70% of his money gone. None of these opportunities open without DMX being a megastar. You would have to really underestimate just how big DMX was and still is play wise. I'm not hating I do like alot of his beats but its facts. It would be like Jim Jones having 150 million and Cam having 10 million. Most of that money would be because of Cam, not what you did. You would directly skyrocket based on someone elses shyt mostly... ballin' only blows for Jim because Dipset is put in the position Cam gave them. Yeah its smart investing and making moves with the dough but you owe all that to DMX, the man who shared multi platinum stardom with your pockets. DMX career probably could have been 2x a big if he worked with different producers. Imagine him over some Nas Is Like or Trackmasters. At that time it was impossible for DMX to miss, Swizz was just brought for the lifetime journey royalties ... he's super lucky for that. 10 years from now you're still paying Swizz when you listen to DMX. Otherwise on spotify, nobody is like "damn millions of people are looking for and streaming Swizz beats, put some on!"He basically lived a megastar life through DMX
Swizz should be a mogul over them. He savieer than most of them. He was smart enough not to use samples in his music (whether people like it or not) unlike other producers. His own intelligence got him into the art world. I also disagree that other people made him a star. His beats definitely had something to do with his success. To say otherwise is just hate. I don't get what you're saying. Swizz had a bunch of hits after DMX fell off. Why couldn't Mannie produce for other artists after CM?
