Labels pay for their streams , i saw stream farms in India. Labels pay people who own stream farms so that their music go up in stream and charts. Its really not fair game
@Slicharoni Loot I heard most major labels have connections and deals with these streaming services will not be surprised if it's all of them including music distribution services that gets your music out there etc need more research.
Yes ..... you forgot DMX who has been exposing the music industry since day one. He is very vocal on this matter on his albums and interviews. How you forgot to mention his name is mind blowing, especially when you put everyone's gripe together in this video and still doesn't hold a candle to the things X has brought to everyone's attention in his career.
At least a 9 to 5 let's you go home to sleep . The industry is a pretty prison. You have it all , but can't do much or anything at all because they have no privacy or days off.
Yes. Yella is my cousin. We can be up 26 hrs in 1 state just for warming up and setting up. WARMING up and SETTING up!!! Not performing until 2 hrs late!!!!
Back in the day on MTV's Total Request Live; Aerosmith's record label hired phone rooms full of people to just call the TRL vote line to vote for Aerosmith, keeping them the #1 song for weeks.
Lupe fiasco. (Atlantic records) that man could have the same popularity as Eminem but he has label problems after label problems in 2010 when he was working with his album "lazers" the label didn't care about it because the label wanted commercial hit and they didn't push his upcoming songs for the album but it when good because his fans help him to let the label push his album "lazers" by creating a petition and protest for Atlantic record to push his album and they did and it was his biggest album sale. Following 4 years later he still had label problem again and lupe fiasco post on Twitter about why he hasn't drop an albums and the label won't release it until they get a "pop" single and that twitter post was deleted because of the label told him to and then out of nowhere the online activists call "anonymous" threat Atlantic records 24 hours to give lupe fiasco a release date for his new albums and then 21 hours later Atlantic record post a release date for lupe fiasco fifth album "tetsuo and youth" didn't chart but it a dope album. If I ever see this guy I'm going to call him a GOAT Atlantic records didn't know who they had they had GOAT rapper on there hand but instead they treat him like trash
Edit: This is all speculating/conspiracy bullshit, go do something better with your lives instead of worry about stupid "MUSIC INDUSTRY EXPOSED" bullshit LMAO man once you actually realize how stupid these vids are YOU WILL BE SO MUCH MORE RELAXED AND YOU MIGHT ACTUALLY ENJOY YOUR LIFE INSTEAD OF BEING SCARED OF LITERALLY NOTHING ALL THE TIME
can't forget Prince and he had the word slave on his face to talk about how bad Warner Bros Records (precursor to Atlantic Records) was, labels have been jerking artists around for as long as they have tracked record sales!!
Gucci was right they are raciest the record labels, don't go back on what you said dawg you was right don't be scared that's why they have y'all make songs all day long about killing black people an literally rap or sing about stuff that brings your own cultures an followers down wrong paths to end up unsuccessful. Only reason most rappers don't care because the money won them over. But realistically how many rappers even really care about their own people
A lot of us would have blown if we woulda...blown or agreed to be blown. Talent can get you in the door, but it won't keep you there...especially if we are talking pre-internet and digital media. You either let some old label executive turn you out or they give the support $ to someone who gets down like that.
Shady Industry Shit He Was MAAADE To Do.......Cant Nobody Make U Do Anything But When You're Signed To Shady Mfrs who Has Alooooot Of Power With The Funds To Match, Ya Have No Choice

I used to hate on Russ.... till I started actually listening to his lyrics and knowing he does pretty much every aspect of music himself. Mixing. Writing, producing etc.
Kanye ? Taylor Swift ? Sadly, their teams simply didn't know that copyrights don't revert back to the creators *until 35 years after;* whose fault is that, again ?

What about Fabolous, album nothing to something was delayed by him but the label wanted to push it because he was shot and on the loso’s way he made a movie about it sold with the album! Or his intro on real talk, talk about these issues! Include all artist! You need to come with a better list 😂
What about Tupac ?what about Bernie Mac? what about the ones before the names I call? This just recycling this is nothing new. I do mean the whole system
Well read the contract 1st, signing bonuses are not free. Labels will shoot a number to you and some artist just sign away their rights to their on music cause they didn't care to read it. It then becomes property of the label. Shit ain't nothing new.
No Tory Lanez? He exposed the entire industry and even got framed by the industry.
I request elaboration.

Guess we'd have to go and find one of the videos where a music artist actually does it. Lol
Rappers who exposed the dirty truth in the industry yet they stayed in it..lol
They have a contract so they cant leave until it ends
They don't have a choice anymore lol
Like i don't get it...I think you have a point

It’s fuck Russ for a reason
I ain't ever heard a Russ song, it will stay that way
He'd definitely smarter than most
finally you are consistent
ODB was trying to let people know!!!!! RIP ODB
No Eminem? He literally exposed the Grammys
Literally every year at least 10 people "expose" the grammys
I'm insulted you didn't include uzi with his diamond forehead for the thumbnail
“Gucci probably decided to focus on the business aspect over anything else”
Lol no. They paid him to stfu.
Exactly which is business to them 😂
Nah they killed him and cloned him dubasses get it right
Gucci Mane looks weird without his beard damn 💀🤣😂😆
He doesn't look weird, he just look like the original Gucci from the My Kitchen and Street N**** days.
yk osiris exposed music industry too
can't forget Prince and he had the word slave on his face to talk about how bad Warner Bros Records (precursor to Atlantic Records) was, labels have been jerking artists around for as long as they have tracked record sales!!
Yes I remember Prince proudly performing with it on his face..and not giving a great GD...

I used to hate on Russ.... till I started actually listening to his lyrics and knowing he does pretty much every aspect of music himself. Mixing. Writing, producing etc.
On point as usual
DMX HOW COULD YOU MISS THAT?
Them paying for songs to be in playlists, and for streams is no different than old school payola. Shit’s just all digital now.
The industry ain shit without artists
There wouldn't be an industry. They better WAKE UP
Actually without fans
Now Logic is on Twitch collecting Pokémon cards😂😂😂😂
Fredo Bang said something about Def Jam delaying his releases and Rod Wave and YoungBoy said something about Atlantic and their masters
Gucci w/out his beard + still being a lil chubby look SCARY AF😂😂😭 his face deadass sum i would be scared of when i was a lil kid
Pimp C exposed the whole music industry back in the day. RIP
When you say exposing we know it’s much deeper than contracts
Kool Kieth one of the first to do it in the 90’s
That's how Hollyweird is
But so many rappers just have ghost writers why should they on own the songs when they’re not even theirs
Facts
How did you forget Tory lanez ?🤦🏽♂️
What's the beat name playing in the background???
Tom Macdonald exposes everything
You said music industry but I'd like to hear about country music industry Exedra
And gospel music too artist are starting to show up and speak out
No rest for the wicked not that everyone is but js
Without even watching the video I already know that 6ix9ine was going to make the list...
Edit: and Tupac
Ok I see you realize he wasn't number 1 ...i still got his interview tapes from 95 when he exposed everyone and everything
I haven't liked much of Lil Wayne's music since the first Carter album in 2004, but I respect him quite a bit as a person.
I’m late but Big Sean, talks about how the record industry don’t care about their artist well beings and health
Kanye ? Taylor Swift ? Sadly, their teams simply didn't know that copyrights don't revert back to the creators *until 35 years after;* whose fault is that, again ?
Bro said lil Wayne made 8 figures off the lawsuit so dude is a multi billionaire yeah ight
Nah 8 figures is tens of millions
Bro if 1 mil is 7 figures then 8 figures is 10 million
He made 40 million off that deal
6ix9ine?
World according to Briggs voice over in video?
Does no one else see the irony in calling someone a racist slur just before accua
and on top of waynes legal battle win against CM , he ended up reselling them masters for 100 mill lol, gangsta
ahhh its so hard to fly on a private jet around the world
DMX, Houston, Snoop Dogg, and Eminem
Are people really exposing the industry?? Its like common knowledge now that the industry shady...
Its more appealing to write exposed because the word alone draws eyes..
Tom MacDonald is constantly talking about the shit record labels do either in his music or his post/feeds. Check out his song independent
What about IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE
KRS1 where he at?
Ummm since when was Gucci Mane a legend!? And didn’t Kanye keep some of his artist’s masters.
