da band..to hot for tv album
- Thread starter nobodyfamous
- Start date
Tha whole thing was a gay reality show clearly out to make money...thats a given when its on mtv and puff dork iz tha main guy putin everyone on his label like they big stars and everybody jus gets their brake like that.LOL. Whatever tha whole thing was a fuckin soap opera...I think i saw about 2 or 3 shows and every one was pretty freakin homo tha entire time. If anyone actually copped that cd for real theyre def. a sucka...I figure if that crew was actually a 'real crew' that had skills and didnt jus get picked cuz tha producers of tha show knew they would beef over any stupid little thing and act like little girls - and instead; jus been real developed artists with some shit instead then we wouldnt even be talkin about it right now...

Alls that I can keep thinking is, what was P.Diddy doing??? With names like Biggie, Mase, and Shyne under his belt, he goes and pulls a publicity stunt like this? I can't believe he put this garbage out, AND wasted some ill beats in the process. Fuck Bad Boy. Signed: ME, just another person hatin' on wealthy non-talented artists.

Dear People:
From what I've heard from friends, Puffy received as much as he would have made off 1 multiplatinum album in sales and markup, for doing the show with MTV. MTV was generous in their contract. It was good for his bottom line.
Also, the show arose when Puffy was also reassessing his distribution deal options. I believe he went with SONY as the major distributor rather than Arista. I remembered SONY needed to strengthen its Urban Music roster, and Bad Boy was going to fit in well. A contract for the show may have given him more leverage in the negotiations. All 2-in labels were suffering 1-2 years ago. He had problems releasing a multiplatinum artist as of late, and this seemed like the best springboard to capitalise. I've heard "Da Band" and don't think they have what it takes to go multiplatinum, but Puffy works with some of the best independent record promoters out there, so I wouldn't count him out.
If he makes another "Da Band," soon, he will get more money from MTV, because the first show was a hit, and might get another "Band" out that, which will at least go platinum.
For Puffy it was a no lose situation. MTV paid him for what was an advertisement (the show) for him and bad boy records. He also got exposure for a band which, through such exposure, I think, will at least go platinum (if they have 2-3 good singles on it.)
The first single is more of an introductory track, it's not made in Puffy's usual production style.
For the people that can't believe the antics of the members of "Da Band," I do. Rappers are some of the hardest people to work with because of their bad attitudes (especially if they're signed) and arrogance. They believe everything should be handed to them on a silver platter for who they are, and they will argue with you on every detail even though they are very wrong.
Sincerely,
God

I haven't seen the show, we don't get it here. Anyway, thinking about the shows we have had, don't underestimate the buying power of young teenagers, who may buy the album just cause the artists are "cool" and "funny" etc...even though the music might not be all that good.
THIS JUST IN FROM THE "BREAKING IN THE BAND" NEWS:
The hoodFellaz (bad boy labelmates of da band) are apparently mad that they have been continued to be shelved because of this ongoing da Band frenzy, and there is an official Da band dis (which is actually kinda tuff, and funny as hell). well people the Dis records have begun, Ness has his own label and babs is pregnant with freds kid......ok the last one was false, but does anybody else see a hip hop trend here, they are slowly becoming bonafide rap artist.......how do u split a million dollars six ways???

The best was when Wyclef came in to produce a song for them and that Dylan guy got in the booth was all over the place lyrically. He was way louder than everyone else and had to be taught how to control his voice. Anyway, just a thought (it was funny).
