Knoc making money off that song Muzik
« on: June 20, 2003, 02:46:16 PM »
does anyone know if Knoc is making any money off that song Muzik? it's almost everywhere in a small way

it was on a movie soundtrack

it's used in sports now, i heard it at least 5 times during the nba playoffs

it is used on MTV as background music for everything from the real world/road rules/that surf show/ect

it was used on that UPN show with sticky fingaz for promotion

it's pretty much used as if it was a HUGE hit single (which it wasn't) to sell and promote shit......does anyone know if knoc is getting money off this?

i was going to make a topic about something similar to this...i hardly listen to the radio, but when i do, they play a westcoast beat in the back round when the dj's run there mouths...this happens like 7/10 times....like the other day, it was a jayo felony beat....but will they play the song? hell no....so there's got to be some conspiracy with the radio stations

yeah i noticed that too man! like everyonce in a while when i'll listen to the rap station.....i mean r&bitch stations...lol. they always have background music going during the time when the dj is running their mouths. and it's always a dope song......but they'll NEVER play it.


examples of what i've heard


"let's play house"
"gettin' it"
"it's going down tonight"
" get at me"
" this dj"
"21 street"
"i don't like to dream about getting paid"

 ;D Knoc will always make money from this song as long as it gets radio play and used for comercials and or it is also on a soundtrack soo..

Artists get what is called royalties for these things, of course his label will get a cut too but this is stipulated in his contract so we will never know how much but there is definatly money being exchanged
