Exclusive: UMPG responds to Hit_Boy's criticism of music industry contracts as 'slave deals.'
Just being in the situation for as long as I‘ve been in it. Trying to move behind the scenes, trying to be quiet, discreet, polite about it, and I kept running into a wall. “Yeah, we know the deal is unethical but we’re still not going to let you out because business is business” — which is cool but my story at least has to get out.
It’s a crazy, deep story. I was in the deal and didn’t even realize how bad it was until I actually made a hit, then it came to life. I thought: “I want to get paid how all these n–s get paid when they make a hit.” I go to the company, and they say, “Your deal is set up this way and that way; you’re basically not moving through the deal the way you should be.” I kept running into that wall while making more and more songs.
Do you feel like the music industry is structured to take advantage of naivete when it comes to complex contracts and terms?
