They want Shiggy to work for Free

[tay1]

Listen, This how you know Shiggy is struggling and got no business sense. Where is his team at?

You don't ask the rapper to his face you invoice his label, fool. Theres a budget for everything especially nowadays. You rape the labels not your rapper,r&b artist,whatever genre friend. If I was Shiggy and Fab asked me id be like "bet, imma let my management hit Def Jam up and we get it done ASAP". He must be hurting to resort to this acting like these dudes is gonna just give him cash.

Labels would be more than willing to cut the check for these "influencers". Fab would cosign & get him the bread too soon as Def Jam signed off...Shiggys just an idiot.

You cane easily say Fabolous has no business sense or respect for the kid for asking him straight to his face like that as well

Yep I agree. Fab probably tried to finesse him too. They both tried to finesse each other.

Since when does friend mean free?

EXACTLY! Ask me first, and give me the chance to turn it down and say “bro, I’ll do it on the house”. But, out the gate, don’t automatically expect my services to be free.

@ everyone checks for Fab.

I don’t know a single damn person that still does. Then again, I don’t live in NYC.

idk but those first week numbers looking real good. even I was surprised.

 

[SupremeBeing5]

Shigg that you?

How am I suppose to answer this? Obvious answer is no.

This is a toss up. If they're really boys and fab lets him in sections and rubbing elbows like he says,I can understand why they're salty. If dude is hurting financially, I can understand why he wants a check. Situation could've been handled better in a private manner

Fab got money and if he is askin' "his boy" to dance for free Fab ain't no real friend/homie/boy
I ain't got nearly how much Fab got and I wouldn't dare ask my homie to do something he gets paid for at no charge. Imma ask him how much he gon charge and pay that man what his rate is.

It don't matter if Shiggy is hurting financially or if he's comfortable, his work obviously has value so pay him

Seems like this type of behavior bos rampant in hip hop. Yet they wonder why it's so easy for corporate interest to take over.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

crazy

No idea who dude is but he looks like Andrew Goudelock

I kid

 

[another pair]

Shiggy needs to create a Fabolous challenge where you donate money to victims of domestic abuse.

 

[TURBO UNO]

If dude only has that dance then yeah, he should be paid. Fab at least has royalties and other stuff to sit on comfortably, this Shiggy cat does not. Let him get what he can while he can.

 

[daruma]

fabolous should've given him some rich yung and called it a day

 

[Brownstone]

u must be in da boondocks.

Stop, Fab been washed tf you talking bout?

In music its so easy to stay relevant based on past success and touring, but checking for a new Fab single? I'd check for Shiggy first

Lot of NT’ers woulda been doing headspins for a rich yung care package not too long ago.

NY people respect his street cred...NYers got a long history of letting goons become rappers... (lake, maino, jim jones, etc)

Never really considered Jim Jones a Street dude, but I’m not from NYC. Is he really in the streets like that?

 

[wayniac211]

F U pay me

 

[Magic33]

Drake gave shiggy $250k and put him in the video. Plus his social media blew up after IMF

How do you know what Drake gave him?

Right, internet said it.

Jim was holding down Cam / help building the Diplomats then gave rap a shot

His way in to rapping was not like Maino or Casanova

Interesting.

I just remember Tru Life picking on Jim. Maybe that’s why I can’t take him seriously.

exactly also Tru Life is a great example of a goon turn rapper

Jim wasn't that

Fab looks bad on this. Newer generation knows Shiggy more than Fab.

Plus, what Shiggy is doing is business. You want professional services, that is billable work son.

That's no different with my regular office work. Sheeesh, Fab doesn't seem to understand that corporate life. In the end, it's business. Whether that person has clout or not, billable work is billable work.
