They’ve had to lower prices big time. I know a lot have lowered prices significantly if you pay cash. A lot of them make most of their money from other hustles (like releasing special projects on vinyl which has big profit margins, or they DJ, etc.) some also do full collab projects and can get paid a little more on the back end.
Facts. Tf happened to bro???

Here is a dope interview with Toomp from 2017.
The Cipher 209: DJ Toomp
The man behind trap music—and 'Trap Muzik'—shares his story.
Aldrin “DJ Toomp” Davis began his career as a DJ and producer for early Atlanta rap acts like Raheem the Dream and MC Shy-D. But it was when he met a friend’s cousin named Clifford Harris that things really got started. Harris rapped under the name Tip—which he would later change to T.I. to avoid confusion, after signing to the same record label as Q-Tip.
T.I. and Toomp would together sell millions of records, create classics, and even help start a whole new genre. A whole new generation in Atlanta and beyond would take inspiration from the sound and title of Toomp and T.I.’s 2003 album Trap Muzik, and a style bearing that name would come into being.
But that’s far from the end of Toomp’s accomplishments. He also played a key role in the creation of Kanye West’s 2007 album Graduation, and a whole lot more besides.

I can't blame them either, if we're being honest.
Imagine trying to figure out splits on a record when some of these artists don't know who exactly they're signed to.
And if most artists aren't making money off of music these days, you have to imagine it's tougher for producers.
Then factor in that you probably have to adopt the sound you're known for to today's tastes........
Yeah. I'd stick with the gig where all I really gotta do is spin some records I'm interested in, and the worst case scenario for pay is I get half now, and half after the show.
