50 Cent / Eminem / Dr. Dre: Moneymakers 2004

(1/5) > >>

TuKer Says: Angeles Records is the truth!!:
The "Moneymakers" list was compiled from extensive interviews with record-company executives, managers, lawyers, agents and publicists, and uses figures derived from Nielsen SoundScan, Pollstar, the Recording Industry Association of America, Amusement Business/Billboard, The Yellow Pages of Rock and ArtistDirect. Net figures reflect what performers take home after recording expenses have been deducted and managers, agents and lawyers have taken their cuts. All figures should be considered estimates. Robert LaFranco, a former editor at Forbes, wrote the 2004 "Rich List" in RS 944. (RollingStone)

50 Cent $24.9 Mill. - On the road: His Beg for Mercy Tour grossed $4 million. On the CD: Dr. Dre and Eminem's protege (who is co-signed to their record labels, Aftermath and Shady) is now out-earning both of them. 50 has earned $14 million in royalties from Get Rich or Die Tryin' since its 2003 release, and a record-contract renegotiation last year won him a reported extra $8 million payout. Not to mention the substantial royalties 50 earned on cds by artists on his G Unit label (such as, er, G Unit and G Unit member Lloyd Banks). Meanwhile, the Game's Number One debut gave 50 Cent's 2005 a strong start. On the side: Reebok sold more than 1 million pairs of G Unit sneakers, netting 50 Cent at least $6 million in royalties.

Eminem $18.3 Mill. - On the CD: He's a rapper and a business mogul: Eminem sold more than 4 million copies of his own CDs (including 3.5 million copies of 2004's Encore), and he earned additional royalties on hit discs by 50 Cent, D-12 and G Unit, all released by his Shady Records and Dr. Dre's Aftermath Records. The Shady/Aftermath family sold 8 million cds. On the side: Eminem's clothing line, Shady Ltd., earned at least $1.5 million.

Dr. Dre $11.4 Mill. - On the CD: For artists connected to his Aftermath label, Dr. Dre charges a "friends and family" rate of $75,000 to produce a song. But that's just the beginning: Dre also earns a five percent production royalty as well as label profits. Dre had reason to be pleased by the sales of 50 Cent, G Unit, Lloyd Banks, D-12 and Obie Trice. On the side: For outside projects such as the Gwen Stefani/Eve collaboration "Rich Girl," seeing the Doctor is expensive: Dre earns roughly $250,000 per track.

Kanye said he charges everyone 80k and that´s what Dre charges his own artists so it is obscene. man i´ve heard of Rodney Jerkins chargin them RnB artists like 200k but 250k is more then half the budget for a lot of artists.
