De La Soul on Sway: Still Getting ROBBED by Tommy Boy Records on Their 30th Anniversary

[Atsym Sknyfs]

Tommy Boy wants more money. I don't think you need to dig any deeper when the motivation is money

I've met Pos, and he was cool to me. and I've met some "a$$hole" celebrities. I thought Pete Rock was an "a$$hole", but it doesn't change how I feel about his music, or make me want someone to do him dirty in a business deal. I also understand that maybe I saw him that way cause I caught him at a bad time or whatever

I met POS around 93 seemed cool then .... I heard the pete rock thing before...
the thing though was I didn't stan out when I meet certain people so maybe their a$$hole defense mechanism was on fall back..

We are talking about peanuts as far as money goes. Money feels like a smoke screen, really.

Doing business / working with someone over years is much different than just meeting once or twice. I don't disagree with what you are saying and am not agreeing with Tommy Boy staff. I just can tell you in life if someone has sway over you and you are a dikk they can drag their feet. Happens at the DMV all the way up to things like this

I got 1tb as part of my Microsoft office subscription.. so I was like might as well back up my music too.. its only about 160Gb or soo...

its mostly 90s ...I don't have many new artists.. I just find it hard finding that 90s boom bap in the 2010s

oh ok i actually have more than that so i should definitely follow suit and back up real soon. tons of 90s boom bap like boogie monsters, cella dwellas, king just, da bush babees, diamond d, showbiz & ag, lord finesse, o.c., big L, hieroglyphics crew, bahamadia and the list goes on. not to mention all my 80's shyt plus the commercial rap & newer shyt i love too

i'd love to bless the coli with what i have so i'll have to get on the shyt you're doing with microsoft office or something.....

I’m lucky to have all the physicals so I don’t have to worry about streaming. I put the 3 feet cd in today and it still sounds great! That album is like a master class on how to sample.

that might be a cool thread idea... we all share our cloud music collection with a link to our one-drive or google drive or whatever we use.

Tommy Boy screwed over Live Squad them guys had their shyt shelved.

Tommy Boy screwed over Live Squad them guys had their shyt shelved.

its a known fact tommy boy screwed everybody .... but they let them ALL have their creative freedom which is the one thing I think was more important than making sure the numbers worked out.

not compromising myself and my integrity .... if you say we'll discuss that later... I might go along as well... 90% of us will..

No wonder I couldn't find Stake Is High album on iTunes.

Lucky, I have that Stake Is High in my collection CD. fukk the stream. CD is the winner.

These cacs and jews always been robbing way before the hip-hop.

Mind you Ray Charles was literally bind but he ain't no damn fool and he isn't blind by what these cacs tried to do him.



The problem is that they knew that artists ain't try to read the contract just quick and sign and trust their bosses'mouth.
