it doesnt mean shit if ur waiting around for them to do everything , thats for dam sure .

if u already sellin 100 thow out the trunk independent , u prolly gonna see some chips fucking with a major but if ur already selling that much its kinda like whats the point of signing ? sometimes they might offer u a sick deal u cant refuse .

federation got signed more or less cuz of e40 and rick rock , right ? and the idea that Hyphy was the new crunk , they prolly told the label they invented hyphy and all that shit , label bought into it , 2 years later nothing , hyphy mainstream momentum dies down a bit ... warner puts out a few test singles (stunna shades) (18 dummy) ... those singles dont do as well as they hoped ... before u know it they dropped from the label coming out with late ass albums that everyone heard half of already .

west coast artists with major deals seem to always get shitted on...ice cube goin independent should tell you alone....do it yourself...then let em come knockin....as much as people think i hate on the feds....i wish them the best...especially in such a saturated low sales music industry of today...and you wonder why short moved to atlanta...at least they support they own...and/or fuck with the bootleggers first hand so you can get that "tax free" bread...cube went gold on a independent label...besides cube vision and all his other ventures...thats a muthafuckin accomplishment...i can remember when bay niggas was sellin 100,000's + (think in a minute's rbl days) i been listenin to NY niggas interviews (havoc mainly) talkin about how now they break south records in before they play n.y. shit....and them niggas is mad...everything comes full circle...and you dont need talent to sell records...just a fool proof promotional plan and MONEY

Thats real...That goes DOUBLE for Bay Artists...the few that have had major label deals...It seems like it has been this way ever since I can remember. Except for anything affiliated with Dr. Dre.

They didn't get dropped. The album is being released under Reprise/Warner.
