Yung Joc Talks Diddy and Bad Boy Lawsuit: “They Owe Me Millions. They Ain’t Paid Me R

The Godfather · 05-16-2009, 11:53 PM

Yung Joc is talking to people about his money being jacked by some fake @ss Suge Knight in Atlanta. He’s also gettin’ into how Diddy and Bad Boy turned their backs on him when he needed them most. Flip the switch for more

Joc: I tried to work it out with Puff, I tried to work it out with Harve, I tried to work it out with Block. But they keep insisting that I sign this deal with Block. Then they tried to give me this deal, talkin’ bout, “Okay, we’ll account directly to you. We’ll give you half of your budget so you can go do what you need to do on your album.” That’s cool, but I’m not gonna sign to Block. So I said since y’all don’t want this to look f**ked up, I’ll let him keep his logo placement rights and I’ll allow y’all to continue to pay him his percentage, but I’m not signing to him. But they keep trying to coerce me to sign to him and I’m not f***in’ doing it. Some shiesty business is going on. I ain’t been paid no royalties. This is the first time in two years I’ve had label support, and it’s on a Day 26 record. That’s because they realized, “Damn, all these people making money with Joc. And he our artist, and we ain’t even seeing any of it.” When they flew me from wherever I was to Miami to shoot that video, that was the first time the label had spent any money on me in two years. Bad Boy, that is. Everything I’ve been doing, I been spending my own money. So I just recently set up my own office for my label, Swagg Team Entertainment. My own groups are being nominated now. This is the second group I’ve signed that’s been nominated for a BET Award. Hot Stylez was nominated for Laugh Out Loud Award, and became recipients. GS Boys, we did the video, smash single, millions of ringtones. Here it is, they’re nominated for Best Group. I’m not saying they gonna win, but God is so good, they been nominated. That lets you I’m working. So how is it that an artist came off of a flop second album – it sold over 300,000 units, but since it didn’t go Gold or Platinum, n***as consider that a flop – hasn’t really been off the charts since.

AllHipHop.com: So when did you find out all of this?

Joc: I been knew. I knew before Hustlenomics came out. That’s why with that whole project I wasn’t really even there, as far as doing everything I needed. My mind wasn’t there, man. Just so much bulls**t going on. My first album, I didn’t get but a $25,000 advance. My second album, I didn’t get no advance. My third album, he tried to give me another $25,000 advance. I couldn’t get Bad Boy to step up and make him do more. I ain’t f**ked with Block since December of ’07, so why would Bad Boy give him my full budget if they know I wasn’t recording with him. That’s money I gotta pay back, right.

AllHipHop.com: Are you concerned that your comments and actions might backfire?

Joc: How can it backfire? They owe me millions. They ain’t paid me royalties, man. How’s it gonna backfire? What, they gonna prolonged my album some more? I been waiting this long, I don’t give a fuck. That’s why Imma establish myself. Matter of fact, I’m in New York right now negotiating between three labels for a label deal for Swagg Team Entertainment. I’ll make money on the executive end. I’ve been quiet for a year and a half now. I ain’t said nothing! Trust me, every time I do an interview or go up to radio, people ask me what’s up with Block Entertainment. I been quiet about this s**t, I been trying to be politically correct. I’m not doing it no more.

Any artists that deal with Diddy and Bad Boy need to be cautious. Diddy only sets people up to line his own pockets. Good luck getting your money Joc.
