    ? , what expenses. The ? makes his own beats unlike Big Sean who has to pay for those NO ID, Pharell,etc beats and features (Lupe,Wiz,etc). Consistently touring and branding (Derrick Rose, MLB the Show, Beats by Dr. Dre,etc) money > album money. Plus he's about to get that producer money making beats for Fab,Game,etc.

    This alone eliminates the majority of his "expenses"

    Ya'll Big Head Sean fans need to admit that Fab and Drake are in the lane that he is fighting for already and the truth of the matter is, they make better music than him too. There is only so much room for swag punchline rappers!

    he gotta to pay for all them samples , he still gotta pay for studio time etc,etc, . He only getting a percentage off of song placement and he gotta pay his advance back. You still don't understand how that music business ? work .

    Samples aren't that expensive, atleast it's one person eating out your pocket instead of two (producer and original artist) and a lot of his beats are made at home on his equipment (pre production) so that cuts down on studio time. "looking at my advance, i probably can't afford benefits", i doubt dude had a crazy ass advance, he probably got a smaller advance and gets more of a cut off branding and touring. You seem to think that Roc Nation is a typical label, they are more of a branding,publishing, and management company (more plates to eat off of). That's why you hear dudes music on commercials and he can go on tour with a Rihanna, Jay-z, and Drake!

    Because they both were in the same freshmen class. J.Cole dropped the ball in imo. This was supposed to be his summer. The fall is crowded with veteran artists releasing albums.

    Big Sean is set up perfectly. Kelly Rowland single, DJ Khaled album, top secret collabs with some big artists, mixtape full of new songs he really wanted for the album (sample clearance issues) Too Fake remix with Kanye. Won't be surprise if J.Cole ask for a song with Big Sean to get his buzz up. They are good friends.

    Dude, Roc Nation does all that ? ? , it has a 50/50 deal with Live Nation the biggest touring company in the world so all that booking ? is in house. Roc Nation is also his co management along with Biggie's old manager. How the ? do you know he doesn't own his masters and publishing, stop talking out your ass. Yet even if all that ? is true, he is still in a better position to eat than Big Sean because he does more things and on a label who have more footing inside the business.

    When will ? learn, Buzz doesn't mean ? ! It's like your mom calling you handsome, a fanbase and building one > buzz. Buzz entails trendy, and trendy means fickle.
