The black man is always targeted.
Yet you prefaced that with victim blaming:that's what i said
"But it's either sign the wack deal or get nothing, so the artists do it."
yeah, but like countless artists, she got fleeced in her deal. Young and dumb.
You'd think mufukkaz would learn from the COUNTLESS examples, but it keeps happening.
As if you don’t know why it keeps happening

okay, you just wanna be mad.
we all know WHY it happens, that still don't make it right.
Which is why I followed it stating that cats need to stop that shyt.
Did he though? I know that's what she say but let's be real Pharrell and Chad wrote and produced every track on her first two albums and those both bricked. The only album she had that sold, they wrote and produced the only hit single off it and she got a writing credit on less than half the tracks
When you don't write your shyt and don't move units, you not seeing much money off royalties
Some of y'all just saying anything. Most artists don't own their own music just like most people don't own a business.
Stop throwing around fake superiority when you don't control your narrative as a collective either.
Let's not act as if you've never worked a job and had your ideas stolen or where looked over for someone else.
Get some fukking compassion. I don't get how some of y'all move in life with those inflated ass chips on your shoulders. Be proud of our own artists stealing from each other for fukking Coli daps and clout that you can't never cash at no bank.

I have no problem with them getting the Lions share. But to get ZERO percentage of publishing? That's kinda foul. Even Stevie Wonder gave Coolio like 5% for Gangsta's Paradise

What I'm saying though is do we know it's true she don't got any publishing?
She said they stole all her publishing from the first two albums, I'm saying those albums ain't sell much and had no big hits so what money was anyone making off them? That second album never even got a US release, I doubt the label even recouped the recording and promo budgets for those joints or if they did it was years later
Bruh its all power. If a nikka can fck someone and get money, theres a high probability he will….yeah, but like countless artists, she got fleeced in her deal. Young and dumb.

I hate when black people do the shyt to our own though, knowing how that shyt is. Just continuing the same shady shyt.
Whenever you hear someone complain about somebody fukkin “black people over”, they mean fukking “me over”….usually

She doesn't have writing credits on the song. Which means she prob didn't write shyt. Salute to Beyonce for giving her a credit and getting her paid.

“No matter who u fcked, that was before me”
That was in reference to Kelis giving it up to Pharrell
