@_brettc_ @Dame_Lillard This is a weird take, the trade request is not about running from the grind, the Front Office lied, and made false promises for YEARS, and failed to support him in his pursuit of a championship HERE. It is 100% on the FO

It’s crazy that for 1 million streams only generates $4000… total. That $4000 is then split with over 50% going to the label and the remainder is split between artists, producers and writers.

Really disheartening to see so many stories about Noah Miller taking advantage of young artists and producers, scamming them out of their money with promises of placements, management, playlist spots. The saddest part is that people like that are everywhere blending in.

I read somewhere that when we obsess over perfection in our art we subconsciously take away from its honesty. Our art reflects who/where we are at that moment & trying to perfect something that is beautifully imperfect is a pointless effort. been thinking about this all day

Something is wrong if a non-music company is willing to spend 5-25k for a 60 second clip of music, but the companies that literally thrive off music being made and released are paying less than a penny a stream

How badly do you want to be seen that you need to throw your uninformed opinions into trending topics. There’s a complete lack of empathy across social media, it’s really sad. People make mistakes all the time. That’s part of being human. Imagine if the roles were reversed.

I think the “I did it on my own”, “I was broke now I have money”, and “I’m so real” narratives in rap are absolutely predictable and lame... Tell a new story, bring something different to the table, or accept that you’ll always blend in with the thousands telling the same tale...
