Trinidad James Broke and Dropped From Def Jam

[HideoKojima]

Dude isn't even a bad rapper. should've waited till his album to drop to see what direction to go with him. dropping him before his debut is just terrible. Don't be s.a.f.e is still a jammer

STFU

Thats ok..I still love ya brother..I know u been trained to except whatever your master is feeding u...one day your mind will be free..

He will prolly work retail the rest of his life

No. People think Trinidad just got into the fashion shyt, but he's been collecting J's and other sneakers for years, since he was a teenager. He actually used to style artists like Waka back in the day when he was at Ginza so I doubt he returns to actually selling merchandise but he'll probably be more involved in the creation/collaboration of some new shyt.

But as for this situation, the money's been gone for a minute. He & his team haven't even been able to record in the same studios they used to so this announcement was expected. His problems came from the fact that he fukked up his relationship with Fly, surrounded himself with a bunch of yes men and most importantly stopped releasing dope music. He BECAME a caricature of himself. He actually became the rapper Trinidad James and lost touch with reality. As for what's next he's trying to do a group project with some of the people he came up with (The groups WTK & Dem Boyz that I used to manage) and release a movie. So we'll see what happens

Hope he ran through every penny of that budget and enjoyed it...wonder how long Keef has?

Chief Keef actually has a fan base

So does that mean the song at :26 will be released

I thought he got a 2mil deal with close to a 1mil advance. 1mil for the album creation 1mil for him. Could be wrong.

And the deal was for TiG. Three artist including RHQ

I wonder if I.E. got fired for signing him

 

[Harry B]

OP said he heard it was a joint venture, you saying it was a 360, Im just asking for info on TJ's deal..If you say ALL Def Jam is offering are 360 deals, cool.

2 mill is ALOT to offer a nobody artist..dont you think...we didn't even hear ASAP/KENDRIC/DRAKE deals points..but we ALL know TJ signed for 2 mill.

Def Jam was creating major hype for the exact reason you mentioned...Niccas buzz was undeniable!

TJ could have created a chitlin circuit for himself, but was happy what Def Jam was doing for him..


Far as Ace Hood, Khaled gonna make sure he eats...'waking up in a new bugatti' perhaps..

Everyone heard about Asaps 3 million dollar deal and Drakes shyt was all over the place as well, 2 mill advance, publishing + 75% of revenues, but the exact details were non-existent just like all deals. And Drake has deals with a lot of different people, that deal was only the cmb/universal one.

Breh he doesn't own Ginza. He was the shop manager before he blew up. And I don't know what type of money you think his "family" has but they ain't got money like that breh. TRUST me

 

[Juneya]

Trinidad is another one of those people that people hate on for no reason. It's so much raw, uncut, pure hating going on in this thread

The people who own Ginza are some Asians breh. Trinidad was working at The Waffle House in Hapeville and taking the MARTA to Ginza for a period of time before he got on. I been to his momma house breh, they ain't caked up like that breh
