Clarification on Young Money

[bickenback]

Wayne has the best deal in the game. Cash Money was just stupid to offer him that much money knowing they wouldn't be able to cover their asses in the long run

I'd say he has the second best deal, simply because Hov has a ridiculous deal. But yes, Cash Money probably had mad hubris when they gave him that deal after Carter IV, and now they regret it.

Lol that's why he has no rep even though he just posted a goat thread

This is for you retards that can't read a lawsuit, or anything for that matter.

Young Money LLC, Cash Money Inc and "Young Money the label" are three separate entities. Young Money LLC is 100% owned by Lil Wayne, Cash Money Inc is 100% owned by the William brothers and "Young Money the label" is a 49-51% split between Young Money LLC and Cash Money Inc for a certain amount of time. First it was a 5-year deal from 2003 to 2008, they then extended it for 5 extra years to 2013. The lawsuit doesn't say that they extended it since then, which means that Young Money LLC (Lil Wayne) should be able to take "Young Money the label" elsewhere by now.

However, he can't take Drake and Nicki Minaj because their deals with "Young Money the label" are under the 2008 extension where it's a 49-51% split between Young Money LLC and Cash Money Inc. Drake has one album left on that four-album deal and Nicki Minaj has three album left on that six-album deal.

Even if Young Money LLC (Lil Wayne) takes "Young Money the label" elsewhere, it's highly unlikely that Lil Wayne will be able to resign Drake when his deal is up because he's going to be expensive as fuck and he will probably go directly to a major himself.

Get it?

I think Drake will want to follow Weezy so he'll either find a way to get his contract terminated or he will put out an album asap via OVO and just jump to join weezy.

Just an FYI, would be cool if you posted sources to the figures you posted though. People will think you just pulled them out your ass.

same. you can tell Drake is genuinely loyal to Wayne so i expect him to stay YM.
Nicki too, it'll just be tough bc of tha # of albums she has left.

Unrealistic. Drake just cant "jump to put out an album asap via OVO" .... it doesn't work like that when you have a signed contract with Cash Money. He wont have a problem getting release though. Just a problem with getting paid

[pitymysimplicity]

drake should stay with wayne for the time being, lets say at least for another 3-5 years and then go independent and run shit.
