Yo, shoutout to the cameraman for this episode. The zoom-ins are adding an extra comedy element that I very much appreciate. This shit like Hood Office! 😆
I got a Utopia vinyl for 5$ in some kind of site glitch last lasted a couple hours that I found out through the Travis Scott subreddit. I wa thinking the whole time they would cancel it on me but nope, came in the mail just fine.
Feefo's point about French's Vinyl business model makes perfect sense. Not every company cares about being profitable for every single project. Going number 1 may have been French's only motive, therefore, taking a loss wouldn't matter.
Not sure if y’all even read comments anymore, but some Vinyl context with artists, Travis also sold Utopia vinyl for $5 so it’s been done before to boost sales
12:53 - yes, he does. hitting #1 is likely a multiplier in his contract where he receives a bonus for getting the position. plus, it's leverage. the same strategy many mainstream artists follow. they used to do something similar by packaging albums with merch sales. this is the reason, for example, why Khalid was so salty that year his album came in 2nd to IGOR. he lost money.
can't believe this isn't being brought up in the french vinyl convo - the vinyls were being promoted n sold directly by french. $5 for a vinyl is crazy, but its not so crazy to assume a popular artist you like wouldn't straight up lie & scam their fans. i don't think u can blame the fans here. RTJ puts all their music out for free on their site - if they decided to put a virus in one of the downloads, is it then our fault for not being skeptical??
How do they not know accolades help boost sales and opportunities🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ Podcast will talk about you, magazines, front of dsps & in more playlist / suggestions. Same way winning a grammy or oscar pushes ppl to watch / listen
For the record, regarding Jam Master Jay's death, I believe the two murderers were already serving in prison for another sentence. I think that they wrapped up their previous sentences and were immediately reprimanded for Jay's murder. There's a pretty good Netflix documentary about it, would recommend
Mike was being obtuse all that time not understanding why French would fake sales. Then he says because of French Did what he did with the tracking he now likes him? Come on now. And wtf has Jay Z done for the culture. I'm glad he said "in" the culture because Jay doesn't own a single bodega, corner or school store in NY. Not even a place for kids to play and get together safely.
As stupid as French Montanas business model was, there are plenty of artists that do these kind of weird things to boost recognition and exposure. Shit The Weeknd spent $7 million of his own money just to have fancy sets and fireworks for his Super Bowl performance. And people don’t know that artists that perform at the Super Bowl don’t actually get paid to perform. It’s just an opportunity for more exposure so people could potentially buy an artists music based on the performance.
Exactly, there is value in exposure. You're essentially advertising your music to everybody watching. It's the same way companies pay millions of dollars to advertise their brands during the Superbowl commercial breaks.
Pushing out 5 albums that are all the same yet slightly different is a streaming numbers thing its not some new profound thing french is doing thats some coordinated genius attack on the label. Hes playing the streaming game just like everyone else. Same reason these artists keep pushing out mid 25 song projects.
They said it was national vinyl day so all vinyls were $5.00….feefo be half reporting but French lived in the Bronx & sold Coke Boys Jordan 3s…..stayyyy scheminnnnnngg
I think Cole playing the JAY Z "The Black Album" game. I don't think he's retiring at all. I think he's using The Fall Off to keep his fans engaged with him. He been talking about that album for how many years now?
@@ALexander-ue3kjtypical Jay Stan to bring up business, money, and everything BESIDES the music which is what matters. Jay has nothing for Nas’ recent run to stick to talking about museum exhibits and business savvy even though Nas isn’t hurting from that standpoint either 🤷🏿♂️
@georgethompsonjr6082 Nas is about promotion and damn sure not artistry anymore. Nigga talks about the same boring shit every album since Life Is Good.
This will probably get deleted. But Feefo brought up Hamas on ITMSO to then never talk about it again. Myke makes an Hamas joke here. For a channel based on “no politics, no bs” they’ve conveniently never spoken about Israel committing genocide.
When it first popped off they talked about it very briefly, Feefo was on the normie tip of October 7th being a rando terror attack. Myke attempted to course correct and it stayed there for the most part. If we’re being completely honest Myke is likely the only one who feels strongly on the topic and I got the impression that he’s kept it off the show deliberately since it’s a “sensitive” topic and he and his cohosts don’t seem extremely informed on it
@@TreDoes. I respect your opinion, but this crew has not shied away from many topics. This fear of impartiality in a time where impartiality is exactly what Israel wants. The general thing the world was doing before this mass awareness of what is happening is that “it is a complicated issue, I am not informed”. When have you ever known Myke to say some shit like that? other than fear to be called antisemite, I don’t see any other reason for this silence. The Israeli machine is working.
Love Q.. But this Blue Lips album is straight cheeks on first listen. ill give it two more spins before I probably never listen to it again. 5 bangin ass albums outta 6 really is top tier though.
On the real the streets been stopped rocking with Jay we love him because he from the streets bagged Beyoncé and made a billion but the streets ain’t been with Jay for a minute. When I say the streets I mean the hip hop culture
@@kmc1994Damn, that’s funny but true. I honestly don’t GAF about jay z co sign. That turned me off that Q did that. Just do you. The fuck you need his ok for.
A Jay-Z co-sign is just a personal accolade for a 30+ year old rapper.. it means nothing to the rest of the world. Nobody will check it out because Jay liked it.. he ain’t popping like that
If this was a younger artist i definitely feel you. Ion think the younger rappers audiences really care for the OGs but for Q’s demographic it’s a big deal. 9 out of 10 times if you’re a Q fan you at least acknowledge why Jay is held at such a high regard because you prolly came up when Jay was still one of the bigger artist at the forefront.

yea i bought Utopia for $5 plus shipping, idk if he made a profit on that, especially being a 2LP, but it arrived so can't complain as a consumer

Sounds like French is sabotaging his label situation / disrupting the DSPs. Album cover is interesting too

Feefo funny as shit. “Arguably going to be his best album” about an album that hasn’t dropped yet 😂😂😂
it's out now tho, and it kinda is his best work, so... yeah.
It did sound crazy at first lol but they really gotta let feefo finish his thoughts before they interrupt him or call him out
I'm looking more forward to a Alchemist and Kool G Rap album.
