Selling the house to pay the rent is a bar I’m going to use in court

Birdman got huge advances from UMG. He owned the other half of YM and he got to keep it cuz it was his job to pay Wayne and YM not UMG. UMG did business with CM. They advance him and they keep advancing him cuz he's good for it. It's not the plugs job to pay the kingpins runners and henchmen

This same stuff goes for those working in tech companies. Even if you come up with an idea, a product on your own time it's hard to prove and your company gets to share the IP. Most of us are trained to sell the house and then rent it.

Damn maybe this is why we haven’t had Wayne on a Drake album for a while now.
