The Devil's Advocate
Call me Dad
getting?? that's the entire point of a 360 deal in the first place... from day 1Just to show how deep and complex the 360 deals are getting.
they get a cut of EVERYTHING... so this ain't new.. you make headphones, they get a cut... bacon strips, they get a cut.. condoms, they get a cut.. motherfukking records, shows, merch, EVERYTHING
there is nothing different in this 360, than any other 360.. they want 360 degrees of your circle of money.. in exchange they GIVE you things to make money off... like "here's trukfit. just wear it and say its yours, we'll give you 30% of profits"
now what's the surprising part of this.... is that wayne is in a 360 deal. he reupped long before they became popular, but maybe that's why he works a lot less now.. not doing 100 features and 100 shows.. he's letting universal do the heavy lifting, then he comes through and gets a (smaller) check
i'd think he'd have bought his own clothing company and had people run it (rocawear) rather than being given a company and being the mascot basically.... but hey.. sometimes you wanna sit back and focus on music and not the day to day of the line. but then again, we all know wayne isn't the best business mind
