It's ALWAYS been about the money......at least from the perspective of the real OWNERS of this so called "Culture*...the JEWISH EXECS....

It's just our black azzes is just WAKING UP to this fact....

sugarhill records got bankrolled by a Mafioso affiliate

Def Jam never has been soverien black owned label dedicated to the "culture"

Our "hip hop" stations (hot 107.5...Power 105...Hot 97) are white owned conglomerates

I can't knock todays Trap Rappers And black moguls for being Capitalist minded

Guys like Dame Dash..Chris Lighty and Steve Stoute are like prophets...they saw the GAME for what it really is (marketing..branding...product placement) laying the blueprint for what we have today

Can't knock the hustle :manny:

The GAME is to be SOLD not TOLD...

And these crakkkers like Doug Morris..Lyor Cohen ..Craig Kallman was TELLING us shyt

You gotta get it how YOU live :ufdup:

THERE HAS TO BE A BALANCE. ART AND BUSINESS DON'T MIX BY NATURE. STAYING TRUE TO YOUR ART GOES AGAINST BUSINESS PRINCIPLES AND VICE VERSA. YOU HAVE TO FIND A BALANCE. THIS GOES ALONG WITH ANY INDUSTRY. TOO MUCH BUSINESS PRINCIPLES RUINS EVERY INDUSTRY.

:why:

U illiterate jigaboo....did u read my second post I said IT'S ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT THE MONEY since the sugahill days

All I was saying is that the ROC movement was ONE of the first along with Bad Boy to validate that on the MAINSTREAM LEVEL as black moguls

And I have no problem with that at all....as an enterprising BLACK MAN myself :obama:
