CEO Offers a Million Dollars For Unreleased Song From Tupac Sex Tape
By Jacob Moore | Oct 9, 2011 | 3:27 pm
As you probably know, there is a Tupac sex tape out there. No one has seen it except TMZ and the tape's owner (and whoever he or she showed it to), but there are already some big offers on the table. There has been a bidding war for the video, but since nobody has been allowed to see it, the offers didn't exceed $150,000.
According to TMZ, one bid just blew the rest out of the water, and it's not even for the visuals. There is an unreleased 2Pac song playing in the background during the tape, and the CEO of NOHO, the anti-hangover drink, wants the rights to that song. Without even hearing it, he's offerred up a million dollars for those rights.
Right now it's not known who owns the rights or if the owner is willing to sell. If the CEO gets what he wants, he plans on using the track as the official theme song for NOHO. It seems like a weird move, but it makes a little more sense when you consider that the CEO (pictured above) is Jay Grdina, a businessman who used to be in the porno industry.

Seeing the thread title, I was about to say "what an idiot", but after realising who he is, it'll be a move that'll work in his favour. Guy made a bucket load from Playboy when he was already a millionaire
-
With his offer, whether legit or not, he has already gotten himself a shit ton of promotion for him and his company practically for free... as long as his million-dollar offer isn't accepted.
-
he can buy a 2pac track from dante for way less lmao
-
Knowing the "Tupac Bootleging circle" this track will prolly leak the day after he buys it, lol :D
-
The dumbest part about this is that the song would have been recorded on a CAMCORDER in 1991, with people talking and making noise over it...it's probably going to barely audible, or it will just sound very shitty. Not something that any business can take advantage of, unless he buys the CDQ from Amaru or something.

He really probably wants the video. Asking for the song will get him the video and he doesn't look like an idoit asking for a 2pac sex tape. He can then sell the video and song (if it's clear).

If it's clear then he can make like 1746 versions of the track and re-sell thit shit for eternity like Dante did :D

I think if he owns the song, he'll get royalties every time the sex tape is shown/sold.
Its a clever business move all round.
-
"NOHO CEO".... how about NOHOMO
-
i would never, never pay 1 mill for a pre-DR pac-track.
that guy is crazy. :o

Congratulations. Somebody on this board who actually understands how the music business works. It's not about selling it as an "unreleased track", it's about owning the rights to it so he can get paid. It won't likely pan out. The bulk of Pac's music is owned by his estate and I doubt they will sell it to this guy. They will also probably make life hell for whoever tries to license a porno with his likeness, which is why few serious offers are coming though.

That's not necessarily true. That would be the case if the song were added to the video itself, like in the Gang Related movie where Pac songs (Lost Souls, How Do U Want It, Staring Through My Rearview) were included during the post-production phase and it's part of the movie. I don't think that they can collect royalties over a song that happens to be playing in the background during what is essentially a home video. And even if they could (which they might be able to, since it's not like I'm an attorney), I don't think he'll come close to recouping a $1 million investment for one song on a video that may never get commercially released.
I still stand by my original post, if you read it -- the guy is basically getting some free buzz for his energy drink company on a offer that he probably didn't truly intend to pay out. No one in their right mind would pay a million for this.

hey eurofag. do you actually get mustachioed euro chicks to respond to your polock dating profile? Or is it farm animals all day long for you wigger?
ps: poland smells like pierogies and toes jam
Nice try faggot but that not my pic - good luck next time.
-
It's you eurofag. There certainly isn't 2 polocks in the world with the same nickname. I especially like the mountain climbing picture, it shows off your rugged side to polock chicks and mountain goats alike. I bet you can't wait to get your kielbasa up in some of that good mountain goat lovin'.
So which of the trollsquad are you? Seeing as you chose to do this under an alias...whos the bigger fag? :loser:

The dude from the pic is from Strzegom - I'm from Poznan.
But since your just another stupid american and dumber than a rock - I don't expect you to know anything about geography of a 'country' you idiots call Europe.
You failed hard. Again.

^this is true
he can't generate ascap registered royalites from a merely audible snippet/"song" like that
he can capitlaize off of the porn-clip, n generate a minor income wit linkbucks n similar services
but in my opinion, that shit would b pointless.
the clip will find its way to sites like pornhub and youporn anyway

You failed hard. Again.
So, by your reaction I\'m assuming you haven\'t gotten any babushka covered ass nor has a polock farmer felt sorry for you and lent you his goat. No wonder you deny that is your polock face. If I was as ugly as a bowl of borscht I\'d deny hard too. Too bad the fireman costume didn\'t get ya a chick polock. Ya could have ridden off into the euro sunset on your oxcart. But the bright side is ya have more time to run between forums and post links too American music. Westside and polkas.
Coming from someone, who only came here to diss another person ::)
You are really dumb and ignorant, just as I expected you to be. Plus, your insluts are laughable and pathetic at the same time, little man.

Seems like an idiotic polock thing to say coming from a euro who constantly takes jabs at people because he was banned from a forum three fucking years ago.
Oh and goat fucker......it's generally accepted that when you have no comebacks or defense in a setting such as this black hole of a forum people resort to the whole "pathetic" "you're stupid" "I'm gonna take the high road" defense mechanism. Kinda like you're doing. Fact is, you look like you just finished in third place in a Vladimir Putin lookalike contest. You're a lonely, self absorbed euro who couldn't get laid if you strapped a hundred dollar bill to your eurocock and waved it in front of a convention full of crackwhores. You spend countless hours obsessing about a dead American rapper and running between forums spreading links because you have nothing better to do except take pictures of yourself and post them on the desperate portion of the internet. Plus, you hate the big bad Americans because 2pac told you America is bad. You're king wigger and a fucking euro clown. Now go dress up in another costume and post it for me and every woman on the planet to laugh at.
And euro moderators....you're fucking dumber than I think you are if you think you can keep me banned if I don't want to stay out.
poland and europe smells of defeat and cabbage.

Your not BIG or BAD, Dante Benzino - your just FAT, that's all. Your "euro wigger" bullshit's been played out for years now, same goes for your internet career - move on.
