I agree!
It's like selling your soul to the devil. You can't turn around after a couple of years and say..."Oh....I want my soul back...I didn't know it would be forever!".......TOO BAD! SUCKS TO BE YOU! .........It's funny though........I'm sure they signed that deal for the obvious advantages of signing with such a label........But now that they're actually generating some $$$......they want out 'cause they wanna keep it to themselve. 
DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!!

 


for real... back in the day signin with Bad Boy meant pretty much guaranteed success... as hard as it is to make it in the music biz, would u rather a guaranteed shot with half the money or a one in a million shot for all the marbles???

I know, I know I rarely start any threads, so i'l probably hear something about this, but,  I thought that this would be interesting for people that are in the or trying to get into the  Entertainment business. 


 On Angie Martinez’s Hot 97 radio show, The Lox members Jadakiss and Styles P made a passionate, aggressive plea for their publishing and autonomy from Combs, who they claim owns half of their collective publishing.

“Imagine working for years working for years, hard work and somebody that has nothing to do with that is getting the bulk of it. You’d be totally, utterly frustrated. And, you tryin’ to get around it for years and you call about it with lawyers, but people are too powerful,” said Style P, alluding to Combs’ influence.

“If somebody is getting in the way of you expressing yourself, you can come get at me directly,” said Diddy from the phone. “We’re businessmen. We’re all mature adults here. Y’all sit on this interview and talk as long as you want to talk or you can take the invitation I extended before. Its not even getting there -You getting on the radio, whatever tactic – I’m not your enemy. Don’t sit here and portray that Puff took something from y’all.”

Immediately, Jadakiss retorted, “Well, what is it then? What do you call it? We can’t handle it any other way dealing with lawyers and you know that. So don’t get on the radio and act like a tough guy.”

The conversation degenerated to the point where none of the parties statements were nearly incomprehensible.

“I’m a grown a** man,” said Diddy.

“You a coward,” Jadakiss responded.

“You a thief,” followed Styles.

A seemingly frustrated Diddy eventually hung up the phone as The Lox continued to vent their grievances to Martinez and the listening “We want our publishing, dog, and we got a right to that. Its been years now,” Styles P shrieked. “We been through seven lawyers and all kinds of things.”
