The song was bubbling heavy in NY. Whether or not it would have taken over the nation like it did w/o the Kanye shyt is anyone's guess

He still got his publishing and writing checks though. He just gave up the beat. You can't be a nobody selling to a nobody and be asking 40k up front

But the back end is probably amazing considering he don't have to split his 50%

Yeah, best he could hope for. Then use his name to get put on with other artists and charge $20K out the gate.

Thanks for the responses. I really thought this site broke the record. I remember no one was talking about Money and Violence before it was posted here.

Yall gotta understand as an up and coming producer you're not selling a beat for exclusive rights for 20,000.

Many sell them for 200 to 3000 max cause people can afford it.

It was just his time to blow

Kanye dropped his version Feb 11th at the fashion show stream. Can anyone show a thread on the song before that date and how many posts did it get?

I'm gonna need receipts because i vividly remember that shyt charting AFTER Kanye dropped it. That song was not on radio out here, then exactly 1-2 days later I heard it on our hip hop station. The song might have blown on its own, but Kanye straight handed that dude tier 1 promotion and pushed that shyt to the masses in one swoop - it didn't have to grind up the charts like oouu, Versace, shmurda, some type of way...etc


Song was a huge draw before Kanye, breh.
