Megan Thee Stallion fails to listen to industry rule number 4,080

[Focal Point]

She was already signed to somebody then she signed a management deal with Roc Nation and their lawyers looked over her other contract and told her she need to renegotiate because she’s getting robbed..

That's what I was getting from all this, I don't know where all this accuse Jay Z of doing something to fuck her over shit

 

[Race Jones]

Bro hov is just as grimy as anyone else. This nigga never paid the nigga from the "I just want to love you" song

niggas still think hov and diddy are good “businessmen”

exploitation to them = good business practices

 

[Soul_Rattler]

Anything that will put a stop to this "I think I'm a pimp cause I hoe myself out" music catered to children I'm good with.

J Prince Looks Like A Minister Of A NOI Mosque

Not with that Steak n Shake tie on.

I think we can all agree there are different levels of exploitation in the music industry.

Jay's folks/RocNation management let Meg know her last contract fine print is full of fuckery in order to get her... and THEM more money.

Im sure if down the road she got someone to look at the contract RocNation eventually renegotiates for her... she's gonna find some fuckery in there as well.

Levels of exploitation... all around

exploitation is exploitation

it doesnt change because your faves are doing it

 

[T. Sanford]

Not just Megan, but alot of rappers in modern times. I just find it comical for them to be saying that they are bosses but don't own the rights to their music

I agree... and the music business overall is nothing but exploitation..

like I said.. still levels to it tho. Sad that it seems to be damn near a right of passage to sign and be fucked over in a shitty deal in hip hop.

I'm sure it takes place in other genres but we don't hear about it nearly as much as we do with hip hop.

Everybody getting robbed

 

[Soul_Rattler]

Let some of yall tell it, any level of accountability, responsibility, or contractual obligation is exploitation/abuse.


Bet you were silent as a mouse when Waka Flocka's mother Debra had her son running around getting shot at screaming soowoo.

 

[Natural Born Sinners]

Is not the 1st time an entertainer got new management and found out they was getting robbed. Whether is Roc nation or not. These situations usually result in stalemates bc both sides have valid arguments. I'm sure that label helped her create that brand and she probably wouldn't be where she at today w out them. On the flipside, she clearly outperformed that contract. She ain't a 20 year old kid just looking for fame no more, she probably realizes how much more she could be getting out of her hustle.

Once again according to their attorney, Roc A Fella was the only label that wasn’t fucking artist over and allowed them to maintain their publishing upon signing....

I never really heard artists complain about 50 or Jay when it came to getting paid and being under fucked up contracts.

Exactly.....

 

[Bender Rodriguez]

So are ppl going to get mad at the label or the artist...aka puffy vs mase vol 2 now.....Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

[RozayTabernacle]

I like when J Prince get involved in shit, nigga be dropping PSA’s talking shit over beats ..
Shit be entertaining as hell..

He's birdman if Birdman was a real G

 

[RozayTabernacle]

Gotta read them shits its best to have a lawyer(youre own layer) go over it cause alotta that legal talk can be confusing for a reg person...another reason ppl end up getting fucked over is cause they see that advance money and shit else and sign based off that...only to get fucked later down the line

shits easier said than done. lawyers ain't cheap, plus you gotta find one that's actually involved in media contracts, can't just be a divorce lawyer that your auntie knows. Then you gotta think of an instance like this where they might've been friends before working together, that's when you get all the "it's all love, we family. trust us, why would we jerk you around?" convincing her to just sign.

50? as in the same dude that's had his foot on young buck's next since 2008? 50 might not screw you over with the contract but he'll still find a way if he wants to

Birdman is one of the few dudes that was really in that life. But fuck that dude

Exactly

 

[Revolver Ocelot]

You can see this was going to happen when she sign with roc nation. Jprince made a post about it awhile back in regards of snakes in the game. He was referring to jayz coming in to make money off of megan.

What are you talking bout?

According to her Roc nation was the ones that pointed the supposed discrepancy in her contract.

 

[wadupdoe!313]

Roc nation is not a label. It's a management company
