Here ya go timmy!..............Swackdolfins.
As grown as BG was for his age at the end of the day the nikka was 12
....its like sayin a older nikka recruiting and paying 12year olds to sell drugs or be his shooters is the same as recruiting and paying a grown man to sell drugs and kill for you becuz he may need the money....I don't think BG was a innocent kid who didn't know what drugs were,u don't rap like you got a old soul like BG did unless you was out in the streets
...so u could say BG was at fault and gotta take responsibility on those grounds but Baby is STILL guilty too....in Suge and Pacs situation Suge aint guilty of shyt.
stop making Baby a scapegoat cause his shyt is on full display
when you got cats like LYOR COHEN, IRV AZOFF , TOMMY MOTTALA and DOUG MORRIS who make Birdman look like Nelson Mandela when it comes to business ethics
Ahhhh the irony.

I was 16. I only got the job because I didnt want my parents to know how much I was really making from selling cds in high school. my dad was a bit of an a$$hole. he wanted me to reimburse him for the fact that he purchased the pc, the electricity I used in burning the cds, and of course I had to pay both the dsl bill and a small fee for him not being able to use aol like he wanted. it was a game we played. he was playing suge and I was playing enron. he never knew about the cd/dvd duplicator.Damn you was the BG of burger king
did you make a mixtape dissing the owner?? and filimed the video at the unemployment office

it appears folks have a general disdain for crooks with melanin. its the big bad stealing and exploiting negro. it plays to an agenda I havent felt compelled to subscribe to.

That plays a part...that's not really the OP's angle though...he's a jigga stan that thinks people are too harsh on jay, painting him a unscrupulous businessman and ruthless capitalist and all that...so this is basically "y'all are so mean to Jay...but what about Baby
" ...just doesn't make sense to use Baby as an example when he's attacked ALL the time for his business (without a fraction of the adulation heaved upon Jay)... like you said he's the classical vilified black rap mogul, there's no pass given...half the boogieman sh!t people attribute to Baby as fact, ain't even true (ie...that he basically singlehandedly got a 12 year old child addicted to herion and supported his habit)

i'm just looking at it from the exploitation standpoint...we know that BG being a child and being fed drugs is some deplorable shyt..... but it's not exactly some unheard of shyt as far as street shyt goes.
if you look at the fukked up shyt that Suge,Pebbles and Diddy have done to artists they had under contract.... feeding a 12 year old rap talent's taste for boy isn't exactly all that much more awful.

I remember when I told my dad I wanted to be just like jesus. he said since I was stupid just like him, I should end up just like him. all this was because the intellectual property I was stealing, I wanted to originally give away the cds for free.

Not sure why artists talk about royalty checks when the publishing checks from ASCAP are way bigger. Its 2013 and hip-hop fans are dumber than ever.
You think when Micheal Jackson bought the Beatles catalog for 48 million the publishing on those records were not really good?
I can never feel sorry for grown men who let themselves get outsmarted. Dre walked away from 2 empires to start a third.

@ all these passive aggressive Jay-Z dikkridin threads...Yall were politicking extra hard this weekend..
That's because most artists don't own thier.publishing and in most cases don't know what it is
i managed an artist who not only signed her publishing to me but allowed me to trademark her name for merchandising
all over a plate of hashbrowns and grits at the waffle house
so who am i to talk badly about Birdman
People are destroyed for thier ignorance
if they knew better they do better
but hey the GAME is to be SOLD not told
