Ain't like the kid got an album out. Y'all talking bout a kid with two mixtape/EPs. Glad y'all said something now, before he made these millions off of writing songs and didn't know what publishing was.

He just don't know. He a kid.

thats still no excuse tho.... :dahell:

no fukking excuse, people have been getting done like this since at least the 50s. This is coming from a guy who shyt's on Biggie.
So if you don't know your history, and then not knowing your history gets you played out of your publishing, then :yeshrug:

He. Is . A. Kid.

He was failed by OGs... like you... nikkas that think and handle black men like you stole his publishing.

You can call him a kid all you want but he's living an adult life in the adult world and TBH, as soon as he started getting traction with his music he really should've at least googled shyt about the industry, like how long you expect the higga to be a child?

Someone owning your publishing and having a publishing deal is two different things.

Publishing rights are generally artist based unless the artist decides to sell or give up his rights tk his WRITTEN COMPOSITIONS

as someone said earlier Artists by natural default already own thier publishing

Master RECORDING Rights are usually executive based material owned by whom ever FINANCED the session..for example SUGE KNIGHT...BIRDMAN...SYLVIA RHONE...and MYSELF :jawalrus:Are owners of MASTERS and usually entitles them to executive producer credits on ALBUMS

this article breaks it down lovely

no excuse. At his age we were doing business with bars n clubs. Music was bein copywritten and names trademarked. I learned from my ogs mistakes and reading. And i was a career street dude. Dropped out n all that. You learn what you care to know.
