This is a true story. Got a DM that said I want to work with your clientele but I don’t want to pay them.
I advocated for working and explained why paying my client for their WORK is a good thing. This follyman said I don’t like to “ruin the magic” with money. I was like YO...the artist is a Father rAp is LABOR what is u saying right now fam!?!?
A few back and Forths later the dude who I don’t know him could be producer or a label owner tells me “I’m on vacation in Monaco with my Wife”.
I lost it inside my head. Vacation!? Monaco!? Money makes you lose the magic of music!?!?! What in the indentured servitude fuckshit!?
Like most of my clients are Dads they have real mouths to feed and making great Hip Hop music that makes us ALL a decent living is a MUST. The babies deserve for their fathers to be paid fairly. Rap is labor. Poverty is violence. Gtfohwtbs
