I thought 40 was a saavy businessman with marbles and all that shit. How you go from being a coach and a star player to being a second string player on Lil Jons team? Thats like owning a company and then saying fuck it, I'ma just go get a 9to5 and work for somebody else. Well I guess thats exactly what he did. I know this is a sad day for the Bay. Will yall ever come back up?
WOW! E-40 Fell off!

^What the fuck is this bullshit? He got signed to a different label..hes been makin moves all this past year...hes the bay's ambassador and number one star. I cant tell if ur sarcastic or not with this shit, cuz this is SERIOUSLY bordering on haterism. "Will yall ever come back up?" what the fuck does that mean? o, i forgot, ur just a groupie whos on Court Dog's nuts. Ur opinion of music cannot be trusted. I guess E-40 isnt good looking enough for you.
by the way, ur basically just calling E-40 a bitch. I SERIOUSLY double nominate this thread for "haterism thread of the year" and "stupidest thread of the year". Double whammy!

I love 40 for your info. But I just lost respect for him on a business level, he still tight as hell! Thats like Puffy saying he gon sign with Ludacris and DTP. What kinda ill shit is that? I feel like he shoulda got distribution for Sick Wit it and stayed his own man like when he started. And like I said, the Bay used to be hot back in the early 90's but they fell off. If I'm wrong correct me. Who is REALLY selling records getting plaques out of the Bay?? Nobody. But I wish the Federation luck. I wish Spice One would blow up again.
you fell off for sayin that homie..... so u mean to tell me.... if u ran a company. and made hella money.... and someone asked u hey join my shit... u wont be runnin it but u will make 2wice as much.... you aint gonna do it??? maaan u need to respect e-40 for that one.... i dont give a fuck if e-40 signed with fuckin justin timberlake under fuckin rainbow records...... e-40 is one of the greatest rappers ever... and a very very smart buisness man.....
Its impossible for him to make twice as much being an artist. Lil Jon and TVT will make what E-40 once made off of E-40 and E-40 will now get what E-40 paid B-Legit, The Mosse, Suga T, D-Shot and so on. He could have went to TVT himself with Sick Wit It but he chose to put a middle man "Lil Jon" in the mix. Dont get me wrong I hope it works out because I love 40 but I think it was a move out of survival and desperation.
man its just like eminem on interscope, he still have his own shit and get breaded up. yall dont know what kind of deal he signed so dont speak on it. when he was on jive he didnt have the same kind of contract as a regular artist and trust me he prob dont have a regular contract on this label either. he wants more promtion and distribution and i think by signing to little jon label he will get it. it prob aint even about the money he wants to get the respect he deserves
lol at all this shit! tall andrew and that other dude: know what u r talkin bout before u go saying a bunch of negative shit about a legend like 40. it's a great move for him and the bay, it's called networking, something the bay needs! lil jon is on top right now and has some of the best beats around and he got a pretty good deal so why would u not do it???? this is big for the bay.
So your saying he fell off just cause hes on the label of a man who's bigger then him in the game ? You know usually this is how artists start off....to alot of people E-40 is new to them, well the radio listeners....you see a dude like Kanye West...he started with Rocafella, put out an album and now he has his own shit...thats how the game goes. You sign to another man, and if you do good enough you end up splitting from that to form your own thing
again, dont act like you know the business when you dont. e-40 was really the first artist to sign with a major and still get most of the album profits, i am sure he did this with lil jon too. yes, lil jon will make money off him but not like he will with the lesser new artists. he is an established businessman and would never take less money like a bitch.
you should get banned just for speaking on something that you know nothing about. unless of course you are super hot and then you shouldnt, lol
