Title: How much of Aftermath does Dre own?
Post by: MisterX on August 31, 2009, 04:07:16 PM
Aftermath was started as a joint venture between Dre and Interscope, I don't know if that means Dre and Interscope each owned 50% or if they just split the profits 50/50. At one point he sold 30% of Aftermath to Interscope so that means he currently either owns 70% or 20% of Aftermath. Does anyone know?

Dre would own majority, No way he would let another own more after the entire Suge Knight Death Row thing. Interscope does call the shots mainly because they are the distributive label and they do own a share of the company. But Dre still owns the 70%. Interscope has its fingers in G-Unit and Shady also (aftermath also) So really its really hard to tell who owns what. All I know is each artist owns their own label, but the label made before that has a piece.

So interscope has a piece of Aftermath, aftermath has piece of Shady, and Shady owns a piece of G-Unit, and Aftermath owns a part of Shady also. Interscope owns stock in all 3.

Haha I reckon its the other way round, I think Dre is one artist Jimmy would let drop any chance he got! Jimmy knows how much money he's losing by letting Dre take his time, he coulda dropped two albums in this time, thats millions of profit lost for Jimmy!

if not me then you where did you find that out at, I heard bishop lamont telling the homie the same exact thing, and that aftermath was no more thats why everybody left or got dropped, cuz jimmy didnt care about none of the acts except dre and the detox album that has been done 4 times over, or something like that.

i heard it from bishop's engineer lmao, he said some similar shit about 50-jimmy-and g unit too. he was explaining to me why it seems spi and others were catching the short end of the stick, when all the haters can conjur up is some gay shit like 50 only signed him for protection on the west. lol protection from who? what? where? when? from what ive seen 50 and his boys was responsible for protecting a west coast legend( dr. dre vibe awards 06) on his own turf. smh at the nonsense
Title: Re: How much of Aftermath does Dre own?
Post by: you gon always be my latin queen bitch on August 31, 2009, 07:41:29 PM
yeah but then that makes it seem like the vibe awards was planned
what if buck wasnt there, would anyone else have made a move? 
was game there, and if he was would he have pulled a trigger for his favorite rapper? LOL

game was there at the table with dre, buck didnt get to the dude first lol buck didnt punture any lungs with a fork, he basically took the dive for the nigga with the knife and dj quik and game ran up on stage when it happened, i truly doubt it was planned, the nigga had punctured lungs and ended up in the penitenteary with a violation homie, and buck faught a real case

not really, taking and buying are two different things. if a nigga gave me 75 mllion he can have my company too. the whole concept behind big business is to build value in your company so you can sale it at a high price. vitamin water for example. as long as dre was compensated correctly he aint no sucka for that one. now the lipstick and lace is a whole notha story. lmao

Props to Jimmy then cuz I feel the same way. Detox first, fuck everyone else. All these half ass Em and 50 projects can wait. We've waited long enough.

but whats the hold up, dr. dre aint getting no younger. maybe he's trying to hold off and since its his last album he wants to be the first person to go platinum at 50 yrs old ( he has to be knocking on that door) and no matter what you wanna say we all know it will go platinum no quiz question or doubt. for dr. dre platinum is a flop he gotta go at least tripple

jimmy wants detox yesterday, he advanced dre like 75 million almost 10 yrs ago and he wants his doe. lol

Damn that means Detox will have to sell at least 8 million copies just to recoup the advance and break even.

and as ridiculous as tha sounds, it sound even more realistic when you think about it, cuz back then it seemed like dr dre could just b reath on a nigga and he'd go diamond. but o how things have changed. dr. dre knows he won. the pressure is all on the label to make it do what it needs to do. all he has to do is turn them in an album. nobody is ever gonna be able to take away what he has given to hip hop. his place is permantly stamped in hip hop's book of life
