    XXLMag.com: What exactly is your situation with Dame? Is there a contract involved?

    Curren$y: Honestly, I don’t know outside of me how the business is run, as far as DD172, but [with] me and dude, there is no physical, no black or white, nothing on no paper. It’s just understood, nothing had to be said, so it’s been all good. That’s the same situation I tried to have anywhere I was. It’s never been no confusion, I always wanted to be on the real ? standards: If I ? with you, I ? with you. So we got that understanding. I have companies, he has companies and I gave him percentages and ? . Like I got Jets International, I got this line I’m about to do with New Era and ? and he got like 10 percent of that ? . It’s just some homeboy ? . It’s crazy because it’s like I known him forever, but I haven’t. I’ve only known him for exactly how long you’ve seen me around him. But it’s just like it was understood. We both been through a zillion ? ’ bumps and bruises in this game. At this point, it’s like ? that ? , we just hustlin’.

    The fact he didn't have anything on paper I doubt he'll win. Maybe now he'll stop attending business meetings highed up.

    This ? was staged by Warner Music Group Wiz and Currensy have been signed with them from the get go .

    Wiz is signed to Atlantic. He was dropped from Warner.



    what were the two currensy albums he's dropped though? I know he dropped MCC but what was the other?

    Weekend at Burnie's.

    is that an album? and I thought Spitta had released that himself?


    Kinda his own fault though if they didn't have anything in writing though

    I'm pretty sure it was a Warner Bros. release. I remember the promotion when it came out, Wikipedia matches it too.

    That would be dope, but honestly what could Spitta do for K.R.I.T. at this point that Def Jam hasn't already done?

    mayne Spitta didn't say ? when those albums dropped, he supported those album and tellin everybody to cop them. All of sudden he have Cohen and Llies getting in his ear, the same ones who was in cahoots with jay-Z and backstabbed Dame.
    and they still ? with Dame because Dame aint no bootlicker, Spitta should know better ? than that.

    bingo #lyor thats what i was thinking ... and forgot liles is over there too lol ... now it all makes sense ... spitta might have something to do with it too but im sure those two gotta be quater backing it from a labels perspective ...... Spitta = thier property ............... ;)

    That is true though, I wonder why Curren$y waited til now to say anything. Seems like he was buddy buddy with Dame and now he wants to sue.

    Why didn't he say anything after PT1 dropped?
