Maybe. I dont know his finances. Thug aint drake, I doubt 5 mill was chump change to him back then

He wasn't selling like that and maybe he signed a bad deal with 300 ent

In 2017 he wasn’t getting money like that, he was still a lil nikka back then, sales wasn’t crazy and probably getting raped by all them labels. And he wasn’t getting that much a show back then most likely so he said fukk it.

Do remember that Thug literally had one of the worst contract situations ever. His contract got sold like 3 times after he signed to Gucci.

Here's the article from 2018

Young Thug's Buried in Bad Major Label Deals, Here's Why You Should Care

Artists, be very careful of any contract you sign early on.

He needed that money to put in the streets and make YSL stronger

Is this type of deal common with artists? I've never heard of an artist essentially giving away their rights to perform exclusively to only one venue/entity

It legitimately doesn't make any sense

Hov done it twice with Live Nation. First deal for 10 years $150 mil, second for 10 years $200 mil

$5 mil?

Aeg should've booked ICP instead

Faygo would have been cheaper than pints of lean

Big slime

Hov did that so hopefully he wouldn’t have to go through that
