No wonder they don't want to let offset off, they already sold him as part of the deal. Slave contracts complete with iced out slave chains. Kanye was right about that, niggas be signed to joos not the other way around. It's easy to understand how Africans sold Africans into the white man's slavery for money. We often overlook the role that blacks play in leading other blacks to death for the love of money. We are predatory against our own best interests.

Man, people never want to own and manage nothing that has residual value. They think getting the quick money and investing in the next thing is it when in reality creating your own infrastructure is the way to go. You create your own infrastructure by owning the work and then building from there around it and then bring in allies to share in the cost and profits. Prince died for nothing.

@9:51 I agree with a lot of what you wrote except #1 slavery is customary in many cultures. It was and still is a business. #2 Traders didnt just land on a continent and Afrikans willingly sold their own. It’s more complex than that. They’re masters of deception. #3 many of jews are black and related to their captors but were under the impression they werent. Clear case of divide and conquer. Look up lancados if you don’t believe me

Hood ni@@as do not know nor retain the value in anything. Their obsession with money and being adjacent to white men makes them shallow and impulsive. It’s like dealing with ADHD little boys. Instead of really thinking about what they are sacrificing big picture wise. Well, that is that dumb ni$$a’s money and legacy so I guess he knows what is best for him. That white boy knows the value of black music and black culture. To bad the black dumb ni$$a doesn’t.

Scooter Braun is one of the ones identified by Ye, these clowns are heartless, and will drain you of your soul before they let you go. You fool keep making fun of Ye yet he keeps being accurate with his statements. Hip Hop is not is not black owned.

Who run the world? Who runs Hip-Hop? Black people keep exporting our wealth, we don't even own rap anymore.

BIg picture not a voice in the board room any more to evaluate the content that is being pushed into the Black communities via radio and streaming the flip side is will this he is not all the way out so he gave up a piece to be able to get more exposure for the content created by the brand his 100% ownership had a ceiling the powers that be will always put a ceiling on your success and mimick what your doing to fight you for market share of your audience with a like product or they will attempt to buy in for a piece of the profits. The math has to be done will I be better off running it myself, will my portion of the profits with them behind it (because they will always make sure they gettin paid) be greater in the long term than the profits I get alone. apparently "P" decided he was better off cutting them in for a bag but here is the million dollar question does he take that bag and do right with it or does he do some sucker sh!t and they end up getting it all back. "P" your on the clock if you go out like MC Hammer in a few years it wasnt a good deal and you got played.

==================================
Actually, YOU don't get it. The only thing we know is the owner is Black. We know nothing about their balance sheet. The entertainment industry is fickle and a bird in hand is always worth more than a bird in the bush.

This is why some artists choose to be independent. They don't have big industry machines behind them, but they also aren't traded or sold like slaves or indebted to tons of people everytime they have a new project like sharecroppers.

Well the music was jamming but it’s not something to keep because the music was negative and did not help the black community. If they go then I hope this blog will go away too because they would not have anything to write about except old artists from 20 years ago (BeyoncĂ©)

Just like how black r & b has died, rap will die too, the black American will not rap anymore and will be replaced by other races or people who are “black” but not American. It has turned too violent and it is not helping the black community so it does need to go away. Just like this blog.
