Damn if that’s the case I wonder what he’s paying Sauce Money for writing it?
sauce money did an interview w/ vlad a minute ago...if memory serves me he only got a flat fee
also I’m not sure I believe the part about diddy “forgetting” to clear it but I have heard he did (and is) pay(ing) a pretty penny to use the sample
*edit*
he doesn’t flat out say he doesn’t get residuals but he talks about being paid (past tense) and he says he even got shorted on the flat fee...he says basically sting gets all of the $$$ from the song and is making $2-3 million a year...the $750k mentioned in the article sounds more reasonable/realistic tho
