OMG, this is just naive shyt. Tell me when artists have ever felt an exec treated them fairly? You got Mark Curry out here asking for a million dollars. On what planet does he deserve that for his Bad Boy contributions? They're delusional and won't feel ' 'cheated' unless they are insanely compensated.
Bad thing about the music business is no artist is happy just making a living. They all think they deserve to be rich and famous.
Mark Curry may feel cheated. Maybe he wrote stuff he didn't get publishing for. Maybe he did multiple things he feels owed. I was never a fan, but I don't know his facts
Maybe Diddy should be upfront and say "I'm taking all your publishing if you sign with me" but nah, he's not gonna have the courage to do that....sounds like you don't have it either.
And I don't even hate Diddy like that, but you can't portray this family image on camera and to the public, then behind closed doors be cheating your ppl just like the white exec.
Just act like the white exec, and stop using your blackness to get ppl to sign with you only so you can have the chance to cheat them.
