It was a interesting read by the way. Even those he was getting 20 g a show just think about how much he had to give his OG's and friends and the dude probably only saw 3gs a show after the fact :(

There was an issue where Bobby was saying he wasn't getting the correct money for his shows. He had issues with his manager but I'm not sure if it's the same guy mentioned in the article. I'm wondering if the tax was deducted before Bobby got his cut.

It's crazy how they damn near had to kidnap him to seperate him from GSC.

A minute passed. Then the elevator went "bing," and when the door opened, the N.Y.P.D. poured out, all rifle barrels and shouted commands. "Everybody put your hands up!"
Sha Money says that he, his engineer, and three Quad Studios employees immediately complied. Everyone else—all the GS9 kids—scattered and hid. "Some turned into Batman, some turned into Spider-Man, climbing the walls," Sha Money recalls now. "Some tried to turn into Invisible Man and hidbetweenwalls."



I can picture this right now :russ: I never hear about anyone getting away successfullu

I am pretty sure the uncle mentioned is the same one who got into a lawsuit/disagreement with Bobby after the arrest....What I think is another disgraceful case of typical Hollywood/music industry eating it's young, is all the diva and stars who were doing the dance and posting on instagram....where are they? Did they pay for lawyers, offer to put up bail, offer support in the media? No, they just moved on to the next craze.

Why would they though? They owe nothing to Bobby

Him and his crew did dirt. No matter how you try and twist it. I don't really care for the drug shyt, but when bodies start dropping or potentially start dropping then the shyt turns super sinister

Feel sad for the kid, but if he never did this shyt, his career would never had started anyway. The gift and the curse

His label are such jackasses. He gave you what you wanted. You wanted a "thug" to talk that talk on record, he gave you a backstory, he gave you the controversy. It would be so easy to bail this guy out and then have him featured on a lot of records. It is chickenfeed to bail out Schmurda, yet they want him to rot for doing what he was MARKETED to. Don't give me that "But.. they didnt really want to see the guns" The label wanted that flash and they got it. This is what they want still and they just don't want to admit it. :francis:
Bruh they denied his bail like 3 times. They ain't letting out

Just reading through this now.

Very interesting point in the article is that there was no drugs or large amounts of money found when GS9 got raided.

That could work in Bobby's favour
