Signing deals with those companies is the worst thing most of them can do.

Bay music and major labels don't mix.

Think about how much money Too $hort and 40 would have made if they never signed to Jive.

They would have been even bigger stars too.

The only thing that needs to happen is that the bay area labels need to step their game up. Find some professionalism. Hire some people who know how to do shit like promote outside the bay.

The thing folks are forgetting is when you have your own hood/city/state/reigion on lock like most of these artists do it's easy to get other hoods.

Mark my words, in 2 years almost all of those acts are gonna be mad as shit.
I honestly can't agree with you more.

WITH STATEMENTS LIKE THIS, IT LEADS ME TO WONDER DOES ANYBODY REALLY REALIZE THAT THESE ARTISTS COULD BE HOLDING OUT FOR BETTER DEALS, DEALS THAT ARE WORTH FOR THEIR CALIBER?
