    I'm no fan but what is the point of being on Shady/Interscope when his albums do such low numbers and it is Eminem and the Interscope exec that gets most the profit from whatever little his albums sells

    Atleast independently he would get most the profit

    no 1 is expecting him to explode

    Kendrick is never going to do the numbers 50 used to. In the end all of Kendricks album sales added together may not even sell more than Get Rich Or Die Tryin. But Kendrick is having a decent career atleast doing decent numbers going Gold. Yelawolf can't sell anywhere near Gold

    But he gets way more % of money from sales if he was indie

    On Shady/Interscope being on a major he gets less than $1 for each album sold

    Rappers nowadays make money touring and Yela is always around the world doing shows. Nobody would've booked Yela for concerts in Europe if he wasn't signed to Shady Records, and he is known outside of the USA only because he is part of the Em's camp. He is a great artist, but i don't think i would've listened to him if it wasn't for the Em's cosign

    Sign to Shady Records.

    There you'll get expert advice and features from a recluse who has influenced such classic albums as "Welcome To Our House", and appeared on instand gold tracks like "Throw It Up" and "Throw That". You will have full access to the same crap beats he's been using for the past 5 years, none of the high profile features but a hook from Skylar Grey if you fancy. He will also use his considerable public presence to hide in the shadows until his own album drops and let you get on with it.

    Don't fret though. you will receive full support from a major label that will put you on hold for months and offer no promo.

    Great deal.

    He wouldn't have more profit without a record label that's a known fact. If this was true, nobody would love to sign any record company.

    Do u actually listen to any other artists?

    Eminem is my fave Artist based on his catchiness, hooks, melodies, emotion and song writing but unlike u i listen to various artists various genres

    U seem to have a rep as a stan and i can see why
