No way he can afford all that off of his music. Shit is rented. Just like when T.I put Lil Flip on blast for renting a house and leasing a car for How I'm Living for BET.
Busta Rhymes talked about the state of the music industry on Youtube. He got a $4 million advance for that album he did with that Janet Jackson single back in the 90's. That album scanned less than 2 million copies. He said labels will never give those million dollar advances again because everyone thinks they can be a star and make music off of their computer and it's saturating the game.
An Aftermath rapper who was in the video with Busta said Sean Kingston had 10,000 radio spins and only sold 75,000 and they started laughing lol.
I heard DJ Khaled and Akon were millionaires before they got into music. I heard Akon's family owns a coal company in Africa. I forgot what Khaled's family does. Anyone got any info on this?
