Juice WRLD Lost Millions After Sting took 85% of Lucid Dreams

[Will Ross]

My first reaction the first time I heard this muhfukka whining like a bytch over what I considered to be the beat to Nas' The Message was one of utter disgust... So I can only imagine what Sting who made the original thought lol

But yeah, don't the producer and the songwriter get equal points on songs? To me Sting's cut should come from the producer's haul

Its the labels Job to clear sample.

Rappers still haven't learned from Lord Tariq and Peter Gunz

You can't even pay homage no more...

You can no longer sample or draw inspiration from they're shyt.
Stop lining these mf's pockets.

I had to throw about 150 beats in the bushes.


Leave that old ass music alone. Let that shyt fade into obscurity.



I say that as a producer!

mixed feelings about this in spirit and principal, but juice wrld is trash and the production game has reached peak levels of laziness and mediocrity. taking a well known sample, which was already sampled on a well known/classic song, looping it and throwing the same old drums and 808 over it? and if its not that, its replacing well known sample with free loops from looperman or a ready-made melody someone else made and throwing the same drums and 808s on it.. so much mediocrity

the message flip was so much better. you can actually hear that the producer chopped and did a lil rearranging. lucid dreams is just the beginning of the song looped.

Method man had to give up 100 percent of all i need. Common for big songs. He got a lexus from def jam hasnt made a penny off it since except to come perform the song.

This kid “reinterpolating” aka going on a guitar tabs site and copying the notes in a vst that sound similar got homie 15% he technically shouldnt even have. Dude lucky with his 15 idk why yall acting crazy for. This is common practice.
