did he charge "him" 25 stacks or charge the label 25? Some artist be doing that they will charge the label for some shyt they would otherwise do for free.
Who is Future actually charging tho? For all we know they charged a label 25 k and split it up. Or it went right to Future's pockets. That's why Cam and Mase started beefing because Mase wanted to charge epic alot for a verse and to be in video with Cam and wanted to split it with Cam but at the end of the day Cam would of had to pay that money back.
Ralo is independent and paid the money himself out of pocket, there was no label to charge. he said felt it was worth it because it got him exposure. He said he paid because he don't want to ask anyone for shyt. In the interview he said "Future told me you 'gotta give me something lil bro, just throw me something. I charge 50-100.' " So Ralo gave him 20 bands for the song and 5 bands to do the video. I'm assuming that went in Future pockets.
I just never heard of someone charging someone on their team for a feature. If I am missing something fill me in.
