We got people itt saying Ye’s catalog not worth what Taylor’s cost?
They must think sales is the only way to make money off an artist’s music
And even still kanye has sold tens of millions in sales
Not too far fetched at all
the japanese own sony
That's not what I'm saying but alright. Not every lawyer knows the financial details and doesn't have to to form legal advice which involves several fields. You think his legal team consists from just one dude? And can't you read, he says he assumes this. I'm not saying I know, but his lawyer might be wrong in his assumption
You realize you’re the one making assumptions contrary to the data at hand right?
Why are you ASSUMING he’s talking to someone uninformed and then publishing that to the internet...where does that ASSUMPTION make ANY sense anywhere except in the narrative in your little head
"how can a black man wanting ownership" nigga shut the f*** up
i said that after reading the damn text
"We can argue that they didnt support you fully and sue for breach of contract => then ask for masters in settlement" is peak karen energy no matter who it is
dont get your panties in a bunch
thats how it works you goof
lol it's a Japanese company
True, but its just funny to phrase it like that
U stan a man that gets free boxes like he plays for North Carolina how much he'll make make off the deal? He don't even know!!
Meanwhile Ye eating at adidas
Okay?
But yea I support Ye in this, but why is he beefing with them instead of just buying his s*** and calling it a day?
Too bad he got addicted to using anesthesia to simply go to sleep every night and it killed him
But yea I support Ye in this, but why is he beefing with them instead of just buying his s*** and calling it a day?
I think the problem is that they won't let him buy
taylor has been a pop star since she came out dude and her music is a s*** ton more marketable, im not even sure why this is an argument
y’all can’t accept that kanye isn’t an all omnipotent perfect artist
Ye's music contains a bunch of samples though....
Plus his production catalogue is huge.
you can literally walk into a random retail store and hear a Taylor song
what are you niggas even trying to prove here
Songs used in Malls do not cost as much to license as songs used in movie ads bro.

Ight you're right, I'm not even gonna bother arguing to someone without common sense. Have a great day sir!

dudes laughed at me for mentioning the superbowl and replied with their local mall

Yeah but it sounds odd saying it that way lol
How many people actually own their masters right out of the gate tho when signing to major labels? I don't really consider that getting f***ed per se because it's just something that seems so standard.
But if he gives up 33% of his masters to the label, then who owns the rest?
And he gives up 25% of his publishing and keeps the rest iirc so even if he's getting 'fucked' he's in a better situation than most from what I can tell.
Yeah i dont think many people own their masters out the gate. Jay got his back because he became president of def jam i believe. But:
Drake is signed to Aspire (Cortez), Young Money and Cash Money, who all own 33% each of his masters. Drake has a standard 18% royalty fee deal, which he gets after his a couple hundred thousand dollar advance is recouped.
