To further denigrate the image of the Black man.

Low key the narrative is big bad Black man is stopping the food of a Black feminist rapper (one who got partial ownership of her masters something Jigga couldn't get for over a decade)

Pay no attention to the Black male puppetmaster that will railroad her in the near future.

Yup even though he seems to be in the right the simps and ratchets that defend her will label him a woman hater....

Always a slant to this narrative....

 

[Chip Skylark]

You called it.

so which is it? Is she releasing music or is she not?

also didn’t she just release that bytch song a month ago?

Facts. Not to mention this bytch is also signed to Lyor fukking Cohen. Clearly she didn't do her homework on his history and will sign any piece of shyt paper anyone places in front of her.

Low key son simped too, I mean that was a great deal, she got some of her publishing so she can eat as long as thotties bump that Hot Girl Summer shyt. and a 60/40 split back in the day Whitney Houston (at the height of her career was getting 21 points per record) RZA rapped I need 18 points on my next joint On WuTang Forever this bytch got 40 points out the gate. And she picked her own management. Coach K & P wouldn't let the Cardi have her own management everything is in house and she has a real 360 deal.

Meg's gonna cry in a Rolling Stone Interview 6 years from now.

People still signing contracts without reading it prior?

They read it. The problem is bargaining power and not living beneath their means.

If they were sensible, they would honour their contracts, not incur further liabilities, and then dip so that they can capitalize on their fame.

I suspect most live that fast life at the expense of the record label who get their return through extensions.

That too she got Liar Cohen in her pockets yet no smoke for a jew who does literally NOTHING for her. Maybe he tweaks the algorithms at VEVO but that's about it.

I wonder how much he's making off her?

That motherfukker blackballed Lupe Fiasco because he didn't sign a 360 with him.

Half this thread- Megan is dumb, she should’ve read her contract, it’s a horrible deal. Meg is an idiot for signing that.

Other half- 60/40 with partial ownership of her masters is a good deal, no new artist gets that. Meg is tryna finesse

You have it wrong. A good portion of coli brehs and associates entertainment lawyers saying the deal was bad and she was being taken advantage of for being young. You also have people providing "legal commentary" for shyt they dont know about.

 

[Wiseborn]

You know what I lot of her colleagues are gonna be mad at this stupid ass crybaby when they think about their deals. They're gonna charge a fortune for features. They'll literally overcharge her for what she did to Carl.

 

[CBSwagga]

I was reading at first like 60/40 is what you’re gonna get cause your a new artist and they took that chance, then it said she has to pay for all expenses out of her own pocket with her 40%

what is the label paying for

Paper for the contract. She probably had to bring her own pen.

He said he got the receipts we’ll see in court.

He’s also basically saying she got a good deal compared to the rest of the industry.

He blew her up and said he invested millions.

Meg is in a position to be rich regardless of these %’s.

I can’t take her seriously when right off the bat she lies about her age. She said she was only 20 years old when she was 23. It’s not about industry age. Her industry age is 25 she signed 2 years ago, she was 23. She lied to seem naive and get sympathy from the fans. She literally lied to everyone. Most people don’t know how old she is or care.

She said she didn’t know what’s in her deal. It can’t be true. She had her mother who had been in the industry by her side, T. Farris, and a lawyer as well.

She said she was ‘around’ 20 or so which leaves wiggle room but I really think overall that’s not as big of a deal as people are making it out to be, folks spent YEARS debating if Beyonce was 15, 18, 25 and lying about it... everyone has an ‘industry age,’ to seem younger and more approachable. That doesn’t mean she deserves to be taken advantage of IF that’s what happened it’s also very convenient to me that so much blame is being placed on her dead mother who nobody can question unless they break out the ouija board... even if her mom and T. Farris (who IS being suspiciously quiet throughout all this) knew, that doesn’t mean Meg knew, if anything that’s more case for her NOT knowing because she probably thought her family had it covered.

I would like to see the receipts so I guess we shall see when it goes to court... to me this def seems like something that could be cleared up easily by producing the contract, down to the date on it since they’re going back and forth about terms, dates and ages. Produce a dated contract with everyones signature (meg, her mom, t Farris, Carl, everyone that was involved) and then yeah we’ll all know what’s what. BUT if Meg’s point is that the contract is unfair OVERALL and her lawyer convinces a judge it’s unfair (regardless of ‘its a good deal compared to the rest of the industry’) then she’s out... If she feels the industry gets crumbs and Meg goes to a judge and says I’m starving, idc that the other artists are fine with crumbs, I’m not fine with crumbs, a judge CAN possibly take her side. (And I’m not personally saying Meg got crumbs because we don’t know the terms of the contract, until it’s produced this is he said/she said especially regarding masters ownership/publishing.)

Before her lawyer won that case for the Gaye family there was no argument that you could be sued over the ‘vibe’ of a song, now there is. It set a precedent in the industry. Meg suing over terms that are already seen as ‘acceptable’ or even ‘good’ could set another precedent. Carl invested millions and Meg can argue that she made that money back and then some but she is still not getting enough as an artist... her lawyer just has to convince the judge.

I think it was a damn good deal thinking about it now. Simply because of the publishing, That's huge, Remember Prince did everything on his joints and he didn't have his publishing.

Little Richard cried for years about not having the rights to Tootie Fruity MJ was out here buying people's publishing and giving it back to Black acts for free. Paul got mad at him for buying the Beatles catalog which made him richer than he was before all the lawsuits.

Paul McCartney didn't have the rights to Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. Do you know how much that one song is worth? I heard Come Together in like three Mob Movies.

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Who cares if she was 23 when she signed the contract? Our reading skills dont develop until we 30

Also lol at this false equivalency and tweets

That last tweet!

That's Black Girl Magic and why Jack Dorsey is rich now. nikkas have super jokes on twitter.

Its a great deal, I've seen tons of media contracts. 60/40 not to mention publishing rights upfront.
