he said they outperformed what was expected, so they pushed the benchmarks further back
Yea, but Joe and comp fulfilled their contractual obligations episode wise and stuff right? So obviously him talkin shyt about contracts with a friend, is just him talking shyt.
Has Crook came out and said Joe didnt fulfill stuff in the contract with Shady?
Contract stuff with Complex, seemed he fulfilled it no issues(disagreement about ads, but seems that wasnt in the contract and needed to be negotiated separately).

Royce helped to finally crystalize the issue for me.

The other 2 don't seem to have the business acumen to demand business moves. Slaughterhouse the brand could've been something bigger than just a super rap group.
:russ: Some of yall are just as delusional as Royce and Joe. As if any of these nikkas have business acumen to spearhead any type of negotiation or deals on each other's behalf. Joe nuked 2 deals that we know after all this shyt (still trippin this nikka said Amalgam forged his signature on his contract). The whole thing was a shyt show from jump and destined to fail.

Joe is probably a fun guy to hang out with, maybe fun to record with, etc, but anyone who does business with him is out of their fukkin mind.4

The story of him trying to say Amalgam Digital forged his contract and then a signature expert declaring it was his in court is both hilarious and a damning indictment of what the guy is all about.

Haven't listened to the new Budden ep but based on the Kev interview...Crook's side is interesting. To me it sounds like the problem is that he's been desperate for a deal, desperate for that tour money, and looking for bags. Found one, details weren't great, squad didn't want to do it. But the insight into the way Joe wasted their time for a decade makes a lot of sense. That's how he operates. Joe argues like a 12 year old. He jumps out the window at the very beginning with a definitive, outrageous statement...and then the rest of his argument is basically him trying to climb down from that statement one step at a time while also trying to pretend like he's not ceding any ground. You hear it in every fukking podcast episode. Now imagine dealing with that in a business or contractual negotiation...

Yea Crook sounds kind of desperate. If he knew all this shyt about Joe back then but still reached out to try and do another deal then he's an idiot or desperate. He knows Joe is more popular now than back then and could get a big bag if he brought a deal to the table and they released another album as a group. It's no way I can be working around a nikka like this again.

End of the day Joe is mentally unstable and a supreme narcissist who will burn things down just so no one else wins. It's like in The Sorpranos where Melfi realized a sociopath cannot emotionally benefit from psychotherapy and instead uses it to become a better criminal, liar, etc. We live in an era where people erect "mental health" and spirituality as idols of themselves. Every goal or decision- no matter how egotistical or wrong - is god's will, and any consequences can be deflected or avoided because...mental health. I've seen Charlamange do this too long not to recognize it in Joe and a looot of people who spend too much time on social media.

Crook prob had a wack deal, I won't deny that. He was desperate for money. But even if he had a perfect deal, Joe wouldn't lift a finger to join. It's obvious. And I'm a guy who doesn't fukk with any of these dudes musically, I thought the first Slaughterhouse album was forgettable AF, and their second album was a joke. I'm just here for the banter.

To me it just sounds like bad communication and ego. And like always the common factor is this guy..

Like always…he blames EVERYBODY but himself. And honestly i can hear the hurt from him when he talks about the situation..

But after how he handled Rory and Mal I feel no remorse :yeshrug:
