Yes they are still getting paid as of today.

Jay Brown, Jays man was at the time head of something at Elektra where they were signed. But when they were getting ready to drop, someone passed or got locked up. So Brown sold two of the song concepts to Mr Cheeks (lost boyz) and Jay. Both produced by bink.

They also shut Oschinos hating ass down, saying Jay the goat, it was an honor and we still getting paid.

But you know how crab mentality people move

I’m not hearing any lyrics stolen or bitten so basically Jay took the beat from these guys like he took the Feelin It beat from Camp Lo.

I see no foul on the play here. I don’t even know why Jay would pay these dudes. It’d be like Pac paying Nas for using the All Eyez On Me/Street Dreams beat or vice versa.

All Eyez On Me came out first.

Thats why I said vice versa. I couldn’t remember which one came out first but i’m assuming they were recorded at around the same time.

Either way rappers recording to the same beat is literally a Hip Hop staple. If Jay paid those guys he did so literally out of the goodness of his heart because unless they’d paid Bink already this is a non-issue.
