People like diddy owned the lox publishing rights. Therefore whatever % he owns of their rights he gets paid even tho the lox are the artists who "put the work in". King of pop, beatles etc...did similiar shit. I could be wrong about all this tho

correct.

No, not correct. As the other guy said, publishing is not about sales, it's about performing rights: earning money when people play your shit on the radio, TV, at live concerts, samples your work, etc.
