When you say "deal" and we get x amount of dollars do you mean just for signing we get that upfront or is that an advance for the albums that the label is gonna recoup at all costs and hold our royalties prisoner? I ain't with all that, if I need a loan I'll just go to my bank, my credit is A1. But if the paper is just for signing then give me number 6, I'd knock out them 3 albums in 3 weeks and put them bytches out yearly so it looks like I worked harder than I really did.

If you sign a recording deal
For less than a quarter mill
and your advance was a 100,000 dollar automobile...

I know the vehicle was probably beautiful
but did you ask your lawyer if it was recoupable?

It's nikkanometry.

Neither one of those options including touring which is what artist now a days make the most cake from besides endorsements.

Tour money is life for these dudes. That money has to be right.
Well only one deal was specified as a 360 so I'd assume for the rest you pocket all if not most of your tour money
6 easy. 5 is very intriguing but a risk if that one album is a flop.
That's my thing with 5. The aspects of that deal for that album is great but if it flops, you probably won't be getting that or similar conditions trying to reup with them or going somewhere else.
