Does he get those checks daily?
Not true. Ascap pays out quarterly so you'll get 4 checks a year. However they pay out 6-7 months after that quarter. So this check was his royalties from the first quarter of 2019. So he'll get the check for the 2nd quarter of this year in December or January.

EDIT: actually I think it's 8 checks a year. You get a check for the publishing portion and you get a check for the writer's portion

I got a performance royalty check for like 4,700 today so that 17,000 doesn’t seem like a lot.. although it’s heavily taxed.

But if his show money and merch sales provide other streams, i guess things can be comfortable for the brother.

I edited my post. The October check is the writer's check. In September he likely got a publishing check too. But yeah with his show money and merch he's probably seeing a quarter million or so a year, maybe more.

That’s impressive considering Troy ave is trash. And he’s right about how the label fukk artist over. That’s Gucci Gucci kreayshawn lady had a hit 100 times bigger than anything Troy has put out yet her check was 2 cents.

Troy nowhere near as bad as people make him out to be. He's in that category with Wale, Joe Budden, etc of rappers that people dislike personality wise so they shyt on the music extra hard (although he's not as skilled as them, but the point stands.)

Came in to say this.. he working that hard and only getting 17,000 per quarter for his music. That aint shyt..

I aint even gonna say he getting this per quarter. It mat be 5,000 next check. This gotta be his biggeat check. Major label artist can do a club hosting for double this... lol
