He’s dumb thats why...I love the guy and the music that he makes clearly or else I wouldnt be here, but he’s an idiot. And I think he gets off on teasing his fans. There is no excuse to have so much unreleased music and more building up. I’ve had this conversation A MILLION times. These are the 2 most common excuses I get...
Saving it for when they pass away for thier kids to live off of - first off, THEY ARE NOT 2PAC!!! How many people these days are looking for a Bone Thugs album? This generation barely knows who they are...think about another 20-30-40 years from now. Even thier core fan base has dwindled down quite drastically. How much money do you think those songs are gonna make? Less than they would today...FACTS!!! Just like they would make less today than they would’ve if they were smart and released them back in the early 2000’s!
Money issues/rights issues - ok we’ve been told everything from Ruthless has the rights, to the problem being the producer wants x-amount to release it ect ect. Now if this is the case, I understand people wanna get paid for thier work, shit I would. The fans are more than willing to pay for music and have even offered to start a go fund me page years ago. If they cant agree on an amount or its not worth paying the money, then just release it for free for the fans! If you release it on the internet for free, you cannot be sued. The only way you can be sued is if you profit off the material. I know if it were me I would most definitly want to get paid. Its been over 2 decades...if I cant get the amount I wanted, id take what I CAN get...at least its something or nothing. Absolute worst case if I got no money, id still rather put he music out so people can enjoy it and at least get the credit for my blood sweat and tears...its better than keeping it unreleased and getting nothing out of it. What good does that do? Makes NO SENSE!!!
As for the newer stuff on the periscopes, maybe he does want to put them on albums...but he does take forever! I could understand if he only had a handful of songs, but he has hundreds! Put 10 on itunes every 3-6 months and let the fans buy them, most of us are more than willing to pay! Save the ones you want to keep for albums and drop them when u want...at least your fans are still being fed while they wait for the better stuff.
Its just stupid no matter how u look at it.
