Nothing Further.
For anyone wondering how Lil Wayne arrived at $51 million for his lawsuit against Cash Money Records, former entertainment lawyer Combat Jack weighs in on the ongoing case. This is his story.
stupid
I LIKE HOW HE BROKE SHIT DOWN FOR THE PEOPLE WHO AREN’T FAMILIAR TO THE BASICS ON HOW SOME CONTRACTS ARE STRUCTURED!!! DRAKE SAID “KNOW YOUR WORTH!!”, WELL WAYNE DOESN’T/DIDN’T KNOW HIS WORTH BUT HE KNOWS HE SHOULD BE WORTH A HELL OF A LOT MORE THAN WHAT HE’S GOT NOW!!!!!
nigga why are you yellin
Wayne shoudn’t get anything, just because of how oblivious he was about everything.
yes i agree
lmao wayne is so dumb. how can u let this shit go for SO LONG
Stockholm Syndome.
Birdman was like a dad to him he put a lot of trust into him.. You don’t go sue your dad soon as Yall argue about money.
DAMN
damn how u let birdman get 51% of a company he started …. hes stilll on the f0rbes list tho lol… my nigga bout to get that 51 million and shit on em…
go watch the show Shark Tank on ABC, it will explain why Cash Money wanted 51 percent, that makes them the controlling interest of the company. by getting that ONE percent more than 50, THAT makes CASH money the controlling partner for Young Money.
I think he was asking it rhetorically
That would be so stressful for wayne… what a shame
so basically lilwayne and all young have being getting pimp by baby
he basically owns all there music
it was all good just a week ago.
Did combat jack just pronounce fiduciary as FYduciary?..smh
Even though he doesn’t practice law anymore, this guy represented some of he top people in hip hop…and you somehow find something to hate on. Real sad.
its a dirty game… http://alltheparticulars.blogspot.com/
You signed to one nigga that signed to another nigga
That’s signed to three niggas, now that’s bad luck -Pusha T
Yep! Annnnddd??? Push did the same with Ye! Who is signed to Def Jam! Btw I want some new Pusha T shit! Where is his sophmore solo album? Man if only The Clipse could get back together!
He was talking about Drake, Wayne is only under Cash Money and Cash Money is signed to Universal in a sense.
how the and why the hell did he agree to cashmoney to own the majority stake in his own label.
why own a label if your not the majority shareholder. might as well just said let me get 49% of cash money.
I don’t know if you can call Birdman smart or Wayne dumb, its so many questions I have just off bucks not even knowing the details about this shit…. He should have just left the first time….. then Birdman agreed to give him his “Own” company but even still Birdman Owned majority of Wayne’s company. It was so obvious to see what was going on Birdman attaching Cash Money to Young Money Making it YMCMB, all young money big artist signed to Cash Money too, I don’t see how Wayne gets anything if he signed all these contracts. Shit crazy!!
Forreal. It’s really sad. My question though on some serious shit is while I understand this nigga Wayne looks up to Birdman as a father you don’t have a lawyer to review the contracts. This is business at the end of the day. I can’t imagine any lawyer in the interests of Lil Wayne for him to sign off on anything he created and not be the primary share holder, that’s really, really dumb. The only way, Lil Wayne has a chance of winning if all the obligations that were outlined in the contract were indeed not met.
You already knew he had Cash Money appointed Lawyers that he didn’t have to pay for… Nigga didn’t see the bigger picture until it got to be to much
Wayne out here on the purp ain’t worried about nothing, and Baby is sober as hell, sharp as a tack with his mind on his business & money. Wayne gotta do better
This nigga was “renegotiating” to get ADVANCES?! What kinda shit is that? So he wasn’t actually getting any extra money
Pusha T & Hov have moved from the popcorn to Ben & Jerry’s. “The best parts yet to come!”
Lil Wayne gave Baby n ’em majority stake in his his own imprint. In other words, he gave them controlling interest in YM.
