Fab deserved it for a career of lackluster ass output.
On the flipside I'm sure that Birdman got every bit of $98,000 of that hunnit-large, pleighboi.
Paying wayne 100k in 1999 was outrageous
A Wayne feature wasn't doing that when fab 1st lp dropped.
Juvenile was the only one poppin. I was never a fan of dude like that what Wayne have out that was popping in 99 to tha 2000. A fab juve record would've been the move for numbers, see the Ha remixU trippin... them cash money niggas was on fire. As a east coast rapper pre social media, that was the best way to get popping in other regions. Get features from that area, that way when u go perform there u bring them out n they fuck w you even more.

The Block is Hot album came out 11/2/1999, that means the single was already out and popping for some time before that. Plus everyone knew Wayne from the "Back that azz up" song. Dude was featured on the hottest record of the year. Maybe Juvie was more popular, but Wayne certainly had a buzz
If that was the case I think they would've at least spent some time in studio chopping it up with him and building some kinda relationship.Maybe it was mutually beneficial. Fab was discovered/signed by DJ Clue, who was the hottest mixtape DJ at the time. Lil Wayne/Cash Money wanted to be on Fab's album because he was down with DJ Clue, which would give him street credit in NYC.
According to the article they have more than one song together. Maybe it was a quid pro quo.
And 3 of the 4 bottles. The last bottle, they split.smh at Birdman taking 99,000 of it
Once Fab's team got the audio, it's on them to release it or not. But they paid for the labor/product which Wayne rendered in 15 minutes. What they do with that is there business.I wasn’t even trying to be funny. Honestly I don’t know much about the music business but I always thought you paid the artist or producers if they work made the album. I didn’t know you paid them regardless
I'm sure if it were up to fab Wayne wouldn't have gotten all that especially that early in his careerHow u get punked by a 17 year old
back then it took at lease 300K to break a major artist.He had good ppl backing his music,clue and Elektra.Wait Fabolous had a budget for an album over $100,000? That shit is hilarious.
