There's a reason you see check cashing places in certain areas. You never see check cashing places in affluent neighborhoods. In my hood none of us had bank accounts. Those fees were a killa.
Perk said Jokic is overrated, Jokic is a statpadder, Jokic didn't deserve his MVP, and all other white MVPs didn't deserve their awards. Perk tried to prove it by cherry-picking stats and accolades. And Perk led the campaign to have Embiid winning the MVP over Jokic, and blamed the voters for racism. After all this I'm not surprised at all Perk tries to leech on the youth.
My nephew went to a blue blood basketball school. As soon as he signed his NLI one of the first things he had to do was meet with the basketball department’s financial advisor. Whoever he hired as his agent had to meet with the school and had to go through the financial department to make sure they were aligned with NCAA rules. I doubt high school kids have these types of resources to make informed decisions
Let’s be real here because Perk loves to pretend like he’s four Black people and he’s a fighter for black folks, but let me make this clear this type of situation will only affect black athletes about 99.9% of the time and perk knowing the business and how fucked up that is and he’s still willing to ride that out and that in itself tells you he ain’t shit
Yeah only affecting black athletes. Meanwhile you got white QBs at the biggest schools retiring early because shady BS like this. 😂😂😂 but black athletes right? 😂😂😂😂
it's no different than we buy ugly houses for cash guys have to learn to make good financial decisions we can't blame Perk he's NOT forcing them to accept
Excellent breakdown Big Dog. Glad you are kicking the real. That 10% is out of control. I like your opportunist comparison. Hope These kids are listening. Keep pushing Big Dog !!
Can I just say that not only athletes, but EVERYONE should listen to this. Never happened to me but I just remember Bank of America trying to recruit and get students at my college to sign up for a credit card. “Hey! Get a free T-Shirt!” Thank you for sharing. Great video as always.
The best advice I could give anybody is if you're going to make some kind of serious money or honestly do anything in life you need to find a few good lawyers that are straight up and keep them by your side as close as you can. Because the opportunist and the predators are coming.
Facts!! Very first credit card AMEX!! Probably got a 2 Liter of pop or a T-Shirt. Payments were due on 30 days!! Thankful for having discipline, because back in college if I knew I wasn’t going to have the full payment in 30 days I didn’t use it.
More light are shining are to this topic. This probably happening for very long time but with the help of social media this is educating young players.
To say Perk was oblivious to the predatory practice is asinine. He knew full well what the deal was. You think he was going to grant the use of his likeness to promote something if he didn't know what he was getting in return? C'Mon Man!!!
The only reason they allowed nil is because of stuff like this there's so many other scams going on to get money it wasn't never about the players it was about people knowing they could get in between the money and the players
How can we call this Predatory and not call Student Loans Predatory! Same scenario! They give 18 yr olds major cash… which they would never do under any other circumstance! And you are indebted to them for a LIFETIME if you can’t pay it back! can’t even get rid of it in bankruptcy! Now that’s predatory lending!
The funniest thing is that you can get all kind of Fictitious Credit Cards as soon as you fill out a W2 and go work at McDonald's. Saying how you can get a Credit Limit up to $500... #TheMockery
This NIL is beyond ridiculous. I’m about being compensated for it, especially since universities have made hundreds of millions of their athletes. But, they gonna have to pump the brakes a bit.
This is sounding like Prince complaining about what the record labels did to him with his songs and publishing rights, but he was stealing songs from Morris Day and taking credit for writing songs from Wendy and other people. And what about that name of that company? Nilly or N.I.L.I Anybody who signs with them-"So what do I get after the initial payment?" Nilly.
My brother, you keep on comparing situations that are almost incomparable to the actual story, your saying “these people took 25% from my check, was I taken advantage of” that is incomparable to taking money and being locked in for 7 years at 50% of your future contract. Also I understand that you shouldn’t and probably can’t make real accusations all you can do really is raise questions and discussion points but your naivety is off putting to me. Especially knowing the context of who Kendrick is, knowing he’s made millions in his career and knows he’s even currently employed at ESPN and I’d imagine making great money. The naivety that you know maybe first hand, when your broke, when you ain’t had shit your whole life, and someone offers you more money than you’ve ever even heard of anyone having, you’re gonna sign any paper, your gonna say yes to whatever they ask you. This is the rappers playbook! They say “hey if you sign this contract well give you 50k and a chain up front! Contract writing: “you agree that we own everything you create for the next 10 years” You know this is extremely common and to me it seems pretty obvious what Perks intentions were, he’s not the first to do this nor will he be the last.
OMG 😮😱 the dopest freestyle from Wiley! I 😂 laughed. But the matter was a serious one. Perk mayvhave been ignorant and unsophisticated. Nonetheless, he could have sought legal counsel before agreeing or participating!
Cap 🧢. As a music artist who knows about record deals nobody cries about them. This is a good business model for some not all. It’s an overreaction because it’s Big Perk. Everyone praises LeBron for his business acumen with being the founder of Clutch. He’s making money off of 15% of nba players.
Not really. What I learned is that record companies don’t completely explain the record deals because they know the artist would do anything to get on. So to ah man, that’s why they say hire a lawyer before you sign anything. Think about it. So many artists in our lifetime is on that list of being fucked over including those American Idol winners. So remember that SOLOMON CHILES🫵🏿
sallie mae is predatory lending with putting 18 year olds straight out of high in instant debt that’ll take decades to pay off the moment we enter adulthood 🤷🏿♂️
Its not right regardless of legalities, these kids need to be educated and protected from people like Perkins, damn and I thought he was just racist, to find out he willing takes "legal" advantage of the disenfranchised...jeesh!?!
It’s abt the worth of the athletes… If u need to qualify with stats or potential earnings then that can be shady.. But if they signing any athlete coo, athletes who may not really make the money back or the ROI isn’t great… then I’m all with it… Now if they making big bread off athletes with potential future earnings, like blue chippers … Now that’s a problem!
It’s crazy the amount of schools and players that have went down due to boosters fronting money and getting repaid later😩😮💨🤦🏾♂️been going on just legal now. RIP Ed Martin

“I can impress you with my success, but I can IMPACT you with my scars.” Added that to my notes, as you definitely dropped a bar. Good look OG 🔥

can impact you with scars.
Only correcting you because it was bar. Not trying to be picky.
As a middle aged man this is spot on along with being disciplined and patient esp with your finances. Have to have a plan and stick to it. 👍

So he's taking advantage of black athletes? Of course he is.
Where was is the press when whites do it?
Lol that's how it goes
That's confusing, because Perk said all white, recent NBA MVPs have been awarded only due to racism.
As long as he's ripping off whites too I got no problem with it
There's a reason you see check cashing places in certain areas. You never see check cashing places in affluent neighborhoods. In my hood none of us had bank accounts. Those fees were a killa.
Why would people in affluent neighborhoods need check cashing services? They have finance guys that steal from them instead. Levels.
This was going on for a few months, and I'm glad you're bringing light to it. He should be ashamed of himself, but he won't be.
Perk said Jokic is overrated, Jokic is a statpadder, Jokic didn't deserve his MVP, and all other white MVPs didn't deserve their awards. Perk tried to prove it by cherry-picking stats and accolades.

Perk also runs a puppy mill
He's like SAS
How does he pretend to be for black people? Because of the way he talks?
Yeah only affecting black athletes. Meanwhile you got white QBs at the biggest schools retiring early because shady BS like this. 😂😂😂 but black athletes right? 😂😂😂😂
Dropping GEMS this was great content!
Many young athletes would benefit from hearing your story
I think we can call Kendrick both an opportunist and a predator. He’s not stupid

Like lawyers?
7yrs is a long time! That's Social Media...Potential Podcasts...Brand Broadcasting. That's nuts!
Right on time for the player to possibly be up for the max in the pros
All the way from Trinidad 🇹🇹
Cool story bro lol. Why do you guys do that when nobody asked? It was a thing like 12-15 yrs ago. Lol jk brotha
I luv it there big dog. I stayed at the Hilton on top of the hill before.
In California any APR above 10% is considered usury and is illegal
That APR (annual percentage rate) is tough! LOL
Facts!! Very first credit card AMEX!! Probably got a 2 Liter of pop or a T-Shirt. Payments were due on 30 days!!
Thankful for having discipline, because back in college if I knew I wasn’t going to have the full payment in 30 days I didn’t use it.
Wiley, you’re very insightful. If it’s not too much, please share a link or video with your best Wiley-isms! 🙏🏾
Dope perspective Wiley
You dropped a lot of bars in this video big dog!
I think that even if you had never touched a football you were still gonna make a mark! Nice show, man!
That’s luv!!! Thx much
More light are shining are to this topic. This probably happening for very long time but with the help of social media this is educating young players.
Great video again Marcellus! How did you find your agent while at Columbia?
Honestly with a few tweaks perk can be on to something genius that's beneficial for him and the players.
To say Perk was oblivious to the predatory practice is asinine. He knew full well what the deal was. You think he was going to grant the use of his likeness to promote something if he didn't know what he was getting in return? C'Mon Man!!!
Well he gone use that DJ Envy defense. It wasn't me that was them
Let's blame investors for bad decisions made by young athletes. Why are these teens not led properly by their parents.
Perk must be on Percs… that’s a 360 deal dudes sign with record labels
The only reason they allowed nil is because of stuff like this there's so many other scams going on to get money it wasn't never about the players it was about people knowing they could get in between the money and the players
Whoa! This is crazy!
opportunist? good word, thanks for that.
Im surprised it took this long for this story to break 😮
The record companies do it all the time.
But wasn't NCAA doing the same thing?? He not supporting something much more wrong than the status quo. But Perk ain't the swiftest
The freestyle at the end 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Perks a mouth breather so literally none of these is even half of a surprise
Those banks definitely preyed on us in our freshman year of college. I forgot about that.
what are you using to record your reaction videos? obs/streamyard/streamlabs? thank you in advance sir!
Rap labels been doin this since the 70s
One of the best quotes I've Heard from keyshawn Johnson your agent works for you you don't work for your agent.
The idea is good, the terms are where it becomes predatory . Nil should be capped at 15% and amounts available be based on market value
You had a good man looking out for you that’s awesome he looked out for you
No doubt
I was 19 at the check cashing spot seen that 18% and made an executive decision 😂fasho fasho big bro🤙🏽
I love the freestyle. 💯💯💯 It was 🔥.
How can we call this Predatory and not call Student Loans Predatory! Same scenario! They give 18 yr olds major cash… which they would never do under any other circumstance!

America, the land of opportunity, capitalism, and capitalizing. Also, the land of the prey and the predators. Let us not play. Which will you be???🤨
We knew abaht this like 3months ago
Its fckn weird
no its not, its the American Way..... are student loans weird???
@KingRed300 hahahahah a 50% loan hahahahahah
I give u 50gs u pay me back 75k hahahahah
No no ur right especially at say 16 lol totally normal

wasnt that reported like last month and a couple of days later, he signed a new deal with espn?

Interesting indeed!
I'll have to say you did just spit some wisdom. Which means wise words being spoken to many at one time and watch the mic start smoking
This NIL is beyond ridiculous. I’m about being compensated for it, especially since universities have made hundreds of millions of their athletes. But, they gonna have to pump the brakes a bit.
Thay freestyle was wild! 😂😂😂
This is actually what record labels do as well
Yeah that's the American way but taking advantage of people isn't the American way
Name one country where people are treated fair and square
Taking advantage of people(especially a particular people), has always been the "american way"
7 years is a crazy long time to monopolize the earnings of an athlete, especially one who's only increasing their value as they go
This is a month old and nobody talking about this anymore!! Agents do this same damn thing!
This is sounding like Prince complaining about what the record labels did to him with his songs and publishing rights, but he was stealing songs from Morris Day and taking credit for writing songs from Wendy and other people.
And what about that name of that company? Nilly or N.I.L.I
Anybody who signs with them-"So what do I get after the initial payment?"
Nilly.
i agree!! what was then Wachovia set me up. first week on campus they gave me a 5k credit card. long story short i fumbled that bag.
Are we talking about student loans?
So Perk's company is the only shaky one like this? This hasn't been going on even before NIL?

Not a 360 deal. They take up to 50%. In a 360 deal, EVERYTHING goes to the label
