Stay inside? You do understand most rappers are extremely poor before a deal which makes them more eager to make fast money. Then what Lawyer is going to review the documents a Record Label gives you?
If you have no money, no lawyer, then 9/10 you are going to sign a contract that gives you 250k for signing and an additional 250k advance (which you are going to have to pay back).
I understand that, and if i was in that
position I can’t say I wouldn’t do the same
However even if I didn’t pore over every line of that contract, I’d do it with the understanding that a record label giving me 500K obviously means they have a certain level of power and leverage over me
idk man, if it wasn't Kanye would u be giving him the same benefit of the doubt?
that's like saying an 1800's US politician who doesn't actually hate black ppl but ran on an anti-abolition platform in the south shouldn't be at fault bc that strategy was more likely to give u the win
yes.
and no.
