Takes 20% when artists sign. Builds a relationship/chemistry with them. Artist drop records and hits, they blow up. Then he takes the other 80% when he assassinates them. If I was evil, I’d say that’s genius
There's more than them. Keep ya eyes on Mozzy n several others. Once their life insurance policy rises that's when they (folk like ghazi) cash out on they heads. Using money. that's all u need dealing with young niggas in the streets n ain't ever had no education or no nothing. Just God given talent. Dude look Middle Eastern but probably identify as Jew(ish). All these elites are Jew(ish) record label owners. From the Rothschilds to the royal family's of Europe. World banks. Mainstream media (social). Most All the mobile apps. News. Everything u can think of these people own. O Dude ghazi definitely had money in the fam he ain't hurtin. They bought his way to success. On some Greek fraternity occultist type shit. Cashing in on our peoples God given talent. That's all it boils down too. Listen to em closer
Great interview! So appreciative that this type of independent innovation of the rap game has always been strongly accented in my backyard (Bay Area, CA.) Ghazi's journey is inspiring because he has arrived at his current position off of pure love of the game, unlike 99% of other distributors/majors who are notoriously known to take advantage of artists. Much love & thank you for the motivation. GRIND 💯
the more QUALITY music you mean; this is why why independent labels still have relevance towards the artist development process. But for making money and avoiding third party sharks, we need distribution like empire
No doesn't they own masters u know nothing of how it works Dolph's wife owns his master's look yukmonth he tell how works look his website he nos goz personal as he from ffim da bay
@@beachboi6196 calm down g !!!! Yes dolph owns his masters , the rest dont ... And even though dolph had his shit sorted out are you telling me empire ain't eating of his name? You missed the point Mr emotional
52:57 is what did it for me. He said, there are two ways to play a game right, you play to not lose or you play to win. That sums it all up. He is definitely hired by the gate keepers to fufill which agenda is what I am worried about. But, I think positive now and days rather than negative. I think he does very good to the black community and other minorities in general. But, he didn't mentioned where he got his money to get started if it was not from the street. Curious to know.
he says at about the 4:50 mark he was a DJ, Producer, writer, ran a studio, and worked in Silicon Valley so im sure he acquired some money from those various streams of income
3 yrs later he had done nothing but kill black men that just want a chance to take care they family, he hijacke their platform to push a agenda then cashes them in smh sick he could care less about the black community they’re a token to him
PLEASE HELP: My question is why would you need Empire for distro if you can distribute your music on your own, with distrokid, Itunes, Spotify etc? im guessing Empire has exclusive connections to big time playlists on iTunes and Spotify and they have the cash to give you a nice advance, whats the advantage to signing to distro company like Empire?? Thanks
Connections and a team to handle everything for you as an artist besides making music. So basically they have the pull of a major label but they do (less) of the shady, greedy stuff
It was a scam that was allowed to take place so black artist can not benefit from ownership. Because Tech9 exposed the game but niggas didn't wanna listen to Tech9 too jealous and couldn't see past the act so mofos showed how weak n dependent they are for contracts and record label reckoning.
Very Informative! I still have one question though. 🤔 How does a distribution company distribute directly to 400+ digital stores? Do you get into a partnership with each store/is there some sort of system behind this?
Fast forward 2-3 years (2021, current date) damn near half of all hip-hop artists out right now are in some way tied to Empire, or Ghazi & Nima directly
The most important asset to an artist is owning their masters and receiving all royalties. Funny how he said it was distribution not owning their own music. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
After an artist signs to empire they’re music changes significantly. Larry June hasn’t been the same since he signed with Ghazi.. the music is different and not good. Dolph dropped one good album with empire and the rest was not as good. On top of that Ghazi is taking insurance on his artists I’m surprised people still sign to this demon literally sacrificing themselves to the devil. “If I sacrifice myself will I go to hell?” Dolph wanted to be co owner of empire offered 100 Million 4 days later he gets killed and it’s pushed as “gang related” or because he had “beef” with rappers. Na real recognize real we see what’s going on. Follow the money ghazi enjoy your money In this life but everyone will have to answer to THE MOST HIGH
Who win when the rest of the labels and the executive do so that’s not a good point So if the artist dying and not of because empire is that good to artist We researching that why ghazi didn’t been come out and say nothing distribution company Woooooooooooooooooooooooooo So they setting ghazi up Yeah that threat Ghazi did that shit Omg omg omg Let us check for the apology
Why is everyone so surprised when street ninjas die as a businessman he should take life insurance out on his artist they are an investment and rap is the most dangerous job in America
NEVER AGAIN WILL YOU KILL ANYMORE OF OUR BLACK BROTHERS
It happened today again
Slim400 and Drakeo just died

What they do is opportunistically is make money of the talented Black & Brown artist who create.
Takes 20% when artists sign. Builds a relationship/chemistry with them. Artist drop records and hits, they blow up. Then he takes the other 80% when he assassinates them. If I was evil, I’d say that’s genius
Yeah just like they did Kendrick and yung bleu right?
He most definitely Sacrificing his artist . Shit sad 😢
Dolph,xxxtentacion,, king von .. Etc
Drakeo the ruler
@@JnthnCk d savage is on empire he’s alive
I wanna know why Young Dolph, King Von, Xxtentacion and Moe3 are dead and they were all signed to you?
There are other labels that do the same .Select o hits can put your shit out no problem ask juicy j
All the deceased had beef with others . Work it out it’s not that hard!
Life insurance policies

33:00....for the love! the passion!....the money will come. i enjoyed this!
This interview was so damn good. They seem like really different guys but his questions were so perfectly well thought out, and Ghazi was awesome
17 artistes signed to his label have been killed or killed themselves in 3 years since you have written that
@@nathanamazin8464 it doesn't affect the guy and his company the interview was good artists had their personal problems
He's a Bay Boy fasho. That passion and pride for Bay's independent game culture is strong.
Facts
FRFR OMM
Had over a handful of his artists murdered
@@nathanamazin8464 they were all gang affiliated. How is it his fault. Is it Gucci fault too because I’m sure they all had some kind of Gucci on

Sad u a lost soul whose follows the bs but u hope u still here with a changed mindset I know if u ever respond back

You can make $100,000 depending on your catalog. The more music the more money.
the more QUALITY music you mean; this is why why independent labels still have relevance towards the artist development process. But for making money and avoiding third party sharks, we need distribution like empire
Music Streaming needs the best when they make sales of your music it definitely adds up to your songs he makes you a lot of money and a lot
I didn’t build empire just for profit but to give a platform to urban music…because hip hop gave me purpose…I resonate with that 🔥🔥🔥
Are you crazy? he is killing people
Dude sketchy i dont know why you praising him.. what happened to Young Dolph king Von Xxtentacion and Moe3? And they were all signed to Empire
LOL maaaaan
He has lost 17 artists in 5 years by murder or suicide
