Back in the 90s and 2000's you had record labels such as Death Row, No Limit, Bad Boy, Aftermath, Cash Money and other record labels which where black owned. Then you had clothing companies such as Fubu, Phat Farm, Rocawear, Sean John and other clothing labels which where black owned.During this time people such as Dr Dre, Jay z, Master P and other black executive's got extremely rich and people of all ages and races where wearing their clothes and buying music from their artists.Now today it seems there aren't any young Sean Combs or Master P's.It seems every new rapper now is signed to Sony, Universal or Warner Music.I miss the days where you had independent black record labels that had distribution deals with larger companies.My question is why haven't we seen any new young black entrepreneurs.

These new rappers just want to get 20% of what they earned, fukk hoes, and pose with money phones.You have to have a big business mentality to be a entrepreneur. These guys are happy with that 20% because they think that's living it up.

Imagine where he'd be now if Master P took that 1 million that interscope offered him.
