Good reads from RWS
Anonymous said... Jay is in serious financial trouble. He has silently sold of most of his stock in certain businesses, and the companies he run have closed shop. Rocawear X; Rocafella X; The Nets X; His partnership with Livenation is not being renewed; Rocnation sports never got the accreditation; Tidal is hanging on by a thread; He never owned Armagn de Brignac as the brand is still family-owned. He has probably sold off the little stock he had there. All those stories they leak to the press about buy 100million homes is a big lie! Megamansions are in abundance in LA. If they truly had the money, they would have bought one ages ago. Instead, they are forced to leak stories every couple of months. 9:10 PM Anonymous said... @9:10, I despise the carters more than anything but if you're going to state drama come correct, then you'd be more believable. LiveNation did in fact renew their contract or rather extended their deal with the camel. *sigh* Get it together. 12:41 AM Anonymous said... trust and believe live nation is not lettin jay go until he pay what he owe! jay gone die in his live nation deal. Instead of niggas in paris, shoulda been niggas in poverty. 7:14 AM Chrissy Snow said... They extended the deal because he owes them money. As long as he is their employee, they are going to get paid. After MJ and that AEG mess, I wouldn't be surprised if LiveNation had some sort of life insurance on him. They will get their money one way or another. 8:33 AM

Hey that's me! RWS is my favorite gossip blog. There isn't a lot of foot traffic and for the most part, there aren't too many angry commenters like there are on LSA or insufferable overly liberal judgemental ones like Dlisted. Also every now and then our Fairy Godmother and other tea spillers gift us with scalding hot tea. topazI think Rihanna is stuck with Roc Nation which will be trouble down the road. I curious what happens to her label under Roc/LiveNation since LiveNation claimed to no longer be in the recording business. There was a write up on the Van Jones signing that claimed Tidal is worth $600million. Us normals didn't buy that, what makes Jay think potential buyers will, lol. Jay Z's resources seem to be drying up fast and Beyonce's fans remain clueless. Once her crossover appeal began to wane she hopped on the "woke" train, came back to the Black community and the sillies fell for it hook, line and sinker. I can't wait to see what they do next. Oh, that's right, twins!

Stans believe this crap about Camel being on the billion status. When did he make a billions dollars? He will never be a billionaire. He is not broke but he is not on billion status. This annoys me. His current contract with live nation expires next year so he renewed it. I think it's smart to sign this retiree contract to perform but not to make more albums. My take on this is Camel is jealous of rappers like Drake therefore he refuses to sit down because he wanna compete with the youngins. He is low key competing with his wife too. Can he sell Tidal and go away? This deal made me feel the same about Diddy and his Bad Boy reunion tour. Why can't this set of retired rappers go away? Topaz he is headlining all of them. They cant afford the $100millions mansions and the stories are fake. It's possible the media is trying to find out where they live. The photos of the house Beyawnce plasters all over her instagram is their home. Photos from the home of their fake family video www.wetpaint.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/beyonce-zoom-55a7c33d-705a-429c-bdf8-a799cb1eb7f1.jpgaskkissy.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/IMG_20170404_162656.jpgIt's a huge house but it doesn't look like it's in the $100 million price range. Celebrities buy homes under trusts and llcs and keep the address and identity private.

They don't own anything outright except for their names. If he were smart he would sell his place in nyc while the market is hot so that he could at least afford something in LA to fake the funk like he has in NYC

Beginning to believe the tea that was spilled about them living in a modest McMansion in Scarsdale and just using the tribeca digs as a prop/photo-op set.

I like tea, but this isn't believable. JZ is doing what he has been doing for years. Nothing has changed with that man. He is not a good businessman in my opinion but he always managed to do what he can do to make money and it has always worked. Why does it prove he is financially drained now?
The tea about them not owning their Tribeca apt is toilet water. Kelly has been spotted living their apt many times. They still own the apt despite living in LA fulltime now .

They can't afford $100,000,000 mansions but they can afford multiple million dollar homes. They do not have Bill Gates money but they aren't hurting . They have more than a lot people in the entertainment industry. To add, Beyonce has been bringing in more dough than JZ for years. He raps and brags about her money because she makes more than him. Catch the tea. JZ Forbes net worth is far from the truth. Diddy too.

The record label owns them therefore they don't own shit. The industry is nothing more than smoke and mirrors.

Why do you get your information from? He is not signed to any record label. He owns shares in RocNation an independent label distributed by Universal Records. Are you familiar with his career? He has mostly taken the independent route starting with his first album. He was never a label puppet. This may very well be the reason he is able to retain some of his masters. Beyonce is on her way out of Sony but the credit on her recent album revealed that she owns the publishing of that album. The only way she could block it from streaming on Spotify and Apple this long. The two are not examples of slaves to the industry. They are better examples of greed, egoism and narcissism.

Nope, nope and NOPE.
Jay and beyonce brought this on themselves, always bragging, equating self worth with money etc... These TWO I will say AGAIN are the absolute WORST thing to happen to music (after gangster rappers) They totally changed the value system, mind set and bhavior of black people (FOR THE WORST)
I miss us as a community, I really do. This hypersex, illiterate, bootyshake, blonde weave is our lowest

Tehehe Don't change the conversation. That one time he was signed to a record label he was the president at Def Jam, upon resignation he bought out his contract before that Roc-A-Fella. He is currently independent. I have been lurking here for a long time and you guys have a bad track record. Neutral but finds this entertaining.
Jay-Z $400,000,000 from Sprint and Live Nation Destiny Rehab - $0.
Jay-Z and Beyonce 10 pts Destinys Rehab 0 pts

Jay-Z $400,000,000 from Sprint and Live Nation Destiny Rehab - $0. Jay-Z and Beyonce 10 pts Destinys Rehab 0 pts Oooh burn, LOL! How many points and $$ did you gain from this insightful comment? Moving on: Stop believing press releases and use your common sense. Why in the world would Tidal or Sprint just give an aging middleman who no longer sells albums and doesn't bring in large box office receipts 400 million bucks? His artists don't even sell like that anymore. Just because the numbers look good on paper, it doesn't mean it's real. The millions Jay earns had to pay bills, employee wages, travel, taxes and whatever overhead that goes into living their lifestyle. Hollywood money is never as straightforward as it seems and that is why there are so many theories floating about the Carters real net worth. I do believe Beyonce is the breadwinner in their marriage. For whatever reason (I guess it's love) she stays with Shawn Carter's cheating, scheming, tap dancing behind and allows him to use her when $$ are running low. I'll just be happy when she does a Tina Turner and leaves his ass in the dust like a real feminist would.

It is mainly the nonfinancial types swearing on all this 'money' these 2 liars want to be worshipped suckas have
It is mainly people with NO CLUE how the industry works. Like someone rightly observed, when? When did they mke these so called millions, not when being signed (and artist immediately go into debt with signing bonuses etc.., Bey and family were living in a 2 bedroom apt so they were NOT balling in anyway when she was signed, same with Ja)y.
Ok, mag covers, endorsements but what about overhead, label costs (marketing, legal, production etc.. etc.. etc..) what about living costs, touring costs they DO have costs
Beyonce has underperformed out the gate with Sony being promised MJ numbers and we know how that didn't pan out, she got advances based onthese projections, each project falling shorter and shorter, costs staying up and legal fees are hella expensive even for everyday people, their team is mandated by Sony and charge probably 1000USD or more per hour (my company was recently paying on at $500 so that is low probably more like $2500. They get pennies on the album, they ar enot streaming giants even if so that would be more pennies
I dated a famous rapper and saw his royalty check on many occassions and it always used to depress the shit out of him, he is now acting as well and sold out (he started on conscious) for that $$$ only those promoting an agenda are kept on a label. Many of us are child like in our thinking and refuse to face facts, refuse. People will die talking about, thinking on these slaves' so called billion. They are scum and deserve the years of booty shaking and uh huh, uh huh that is surely to come, that is not a boss, that is a minstrel show (paying homage to white supremacy and colorism and materialism.
This is why everyone shuould be educated so they are not used as weapons against the community due to their greed (and actual insecurity, as it is the insecure who behave this way and coonstatnly need their so called status affirmed) Deep down, they even know they aint shit and me, my worth is not defined by some man made object and no amount is worth my dignity, self respect and postive contribution to my community, God' people. No amount would make me poison them mentally and then down talk them, nope, not me. And no I won't put such on a pedestal.

NOPE! The same question I asked for Jay-Z. Are you familiar with Beyonce's career?
First stop:
Columbia underestimated the hell out of Destiny's Child so much the girls never touched a million in advances. Yes, one the biggest selling girl group never cashed millions in advances. Their deal with Sony leaked online showed they were paid a small amount of $85,000 to record their first album. Their advances increased to $900,0000 for their last album. They were never a label favorite. Destiny's child royalty rate was 28% for the first album. Their royalty rose to 34% on their last album. The large advances you spoke of are reserved for white artists.

Second stop:
Beyonce's first deal with Sony was for a total of three albums Dangerously In Love, B'Day and IAm Sasha Fierce. The record label was not supportive of Beyonce's singles on Dangerously In Love. Beyonce paid to record her second album B'Day without their knowledge because of lack of support she received for her first. At no point they thought she was the next Michael Jackson, how delusional, in fact they opposed to every single on her solo debut. Her second deal was for another three albums 4, Beyonce and Lemonade. She agreed to a partnership deal with Sony for more more control in her career. Lemonade is her last album of the partnership deal and she attained the right to the publishing of that album. HDD said Sony offered her $10,000,000 per album to stay but we will see. She has set herself up nicely to live. Beyonce is one of the few stars who put their money where their mouth is and never relied on a record label.

nicki you are clueless. claims with no proof to back them up are pointless. Do your research and educate yourself on Jay-Z. I can post back up to everything I wrote and I know for sure you can't do likewise. The truth is no use to you because of hate. If you and your friends can say a label owns Jay-Z then I go back to how I first addressed you = you are clueless.

^^^^It takes a lot of energy to actually hate a human being.
I'm not sure how any rational thinking adult would even come to such a conclusion based off two comments and two quoted lines of text. It's clear that I dislike the things they do and what they represent but hate? Nah. As far as I'm concerned, our interaction has now come to an end. You have your researched "truth" and I have common sense. My guess is the actual truth most likely lies somewhere in the middle.

nicki tehehe you coined information leaked from Sony documents as researched "truth". your kind will dismiss facts that does not reinforce your precious common sense. your kind will reject a fact that challenges your way of thought.
Billboard after survey conducted within the industry last year: the industry favorite artists to push and invest in are Taylor Swift, Adele and Lady Gaga. nicki and friends: noooooooooooo it's beyaki. The label owns her. She gets millions in advances. They thought she was going to post up MJ's numbers.
You have bought into the hype of the very same people you are against and you don't even know it. I'll leave you to decide what type of energy you give this woman every day of your life but it's unquestionably not of the positive kind.
NEXT!

Hang it up Bey KKKAMP aren't the stans enough to mind control?
Beyonce is NOT what her hype machine portrays her to be, it is smoke and mirrors and no, noone has all the facts but the ones that are known indicate she does NOT have this wealth she lies about (and pays for), they love Beyakii as they know she will sell her own children to appear to be 'better than everyone else" and they will gladly pay for them as she promotes their agenda.
Yvette, Tina, Solange, Angela you will NOT convince those with a proper education and value system that your paid pawn is anything other than a paid pawn.
