I always said if we had a pool of B1 lawyers we could access way more resources cause we could actually get a bag out of those who wrong us. Worthy representation is a pay to play game but its worth it when you win a big settlement. When a B1 lawyer get you a dub you could put a percentage back into the pool to help the next man or woman.

You beat me to it. Deleted my post when I saw this. Anyway, companies routinely have robbed us in endorsement deals, etc.

This is the exception. There are untold billions of non payments for all kinds of things. Its a shame. They see rappers coming and assume (rightfully so unfortunately) that they don't have the background and have hired the people to make sure they are paid correctly.

The companies don't try to do that to white boys, even if the white boy celeb isn't smart about deals.
