Nope, they sold 50% of the LLC in 1997, Def Jam bought the remaining 50 % in 2004 and Jay became CEO. The sign-on bonus was his catalogue. Kanye while on Def Jam until 2013, released all his music under the Roc-a-fella brand, as did Jay, but also Freeway and Jada. Basically they only "relaunched" the brand for Jay and Kanye releases in the end.

In 2010, Jay once claimed RD earned $100k in royalties. I'm of the belief it's 100k in aggregate and not 100k that represents his share. That number has to have gone down.

Anyone paying more than a million will never recoup.

The smart move would be to leave the money he made in the bank. Floyd Mayweather learned this from going broke once and will never be broke again. He keeps most of his money liquid and makes sure he has more coming in every month than going out. It's that simple.

Everyone thinks they are warren buffet and going flip their money. 9 times out of 10 they loose money and would have been better off just sitting on the capital and living off the interest. With 10 million you are set for life. Just live a on a reasonable budget.
Bro this!!!!! I lost so much money last year, if I had just kept my money in my HYSA :snoop: And before that, I lost like $20k plus in crypto. When I tell you I ain’t investing in shyt going forward

I actually forgot why dude needs 800,000

this shyt is ridiculous.



On Wednesday (March 30), a judge awarded Josh Webber and Muddy Water Pictures $805,000 after a jury sided with Webber in the copyright infringement and defamation lawsuit filed against Dash, which stems from the 2019 film Dear Frank.

According to the suit, which was filed in 2019, Dash was hired to help co-direct Dear Frank in 2016 but was fired two years later for constantly being inebriated on set. After Dash’s ousting, Webber claims the mogul pitched Dear Frank to various networks including BET, under the guise of the film being titled The List to avoid suspicion.


In all, Muddy Water Pictures was awarded $30,000 for copyright infringement and $125,000 in punitive damages. Webber was also awarded $400,000 in compensatory damages for defamation and $250,000 in punitive damages. Following the verdict, Dash took to social media to react, conceding defeat, albeit while continuing to claim creative ownership of Dear Frank. “You have to lose some battles to win a war… stay tuned #fatliars #youllneverbeme. Don’t ever say you Directed MY movie,” he wrote in a post on Instagram. In response, Webber issued a post of his own, simply writing, “Case closed” while tagging Dash’s Instagram account, with the hashtag #dearfrankmovie.”

Released in 2019, Dear Frank stars Brian White, Claudia Jordan, Columbus Short, Nicholas Turturro, Torrei Hart, and Kearia Schroeder, and includes a cameo from rapper Lil Durk.
Ahhhhhahahaha..that's right!

You think it would’ve been honorable of Jay to give his #1 hater and headache the music he himself recorded and basically worked on by himself artistically speaking? :mjlol:
It’s hilarious how people in our community just want successful people to be doormats to those that flop by not moving as they should.

Jay let them have it, the only artists that followed him were basically Kanye and Bleek. And as we know, nobody even thought Kanye would blow up like he did.

shyt crumbled quick without Jay, and big babies like Beans and then regretted their move. Dipset crumbled. L It would be like Tony Yayo and Banks taking g-unit.

And everyone fights for their artists if they are making 10s of millions of their creations :dahell:.
Beans released "B Coming" on DDMG, and was pissed Dame released his album while he was in prison instead of waiting. That was his last chance too since it was critically praised and had a legit single.
