I'll answer the question. If a whole crew goes to jail, is a man a good boss? No! Period

[@purpleweedsmoke6822]

"it depends" is a better answer. the whole crew couldve gone to jail for a reason that has nothing to do with the boss or the boss's decisions. very few things in life are absolute.

He was trying to set him up rhetorically and PBD is smarter than him. The answer does depend. Nelson Mandela went to jail. OJ was found not guilty. So the justice system “depends”. If all your friends are going to jail because the fbi is making shit up to put them there then no, you’re not a bad boss. If their crimes are lying to the fbi then I’m fine with their crimes. Pat is saying murder is worse than lying in an informal interview on accident.

If the studio owner only funds artist that align with the owner's bias then only the products that align with the owner's bias gets produced. All of the other alternate products that would have been made by the other artists get filtered out. Example: let's say you have two rappers. Let's call them Rapper A and rapper B. Rapper A is a college kid rapping about relationships and finding the girl of his dreams to spend the rest of his life with. Rapper B is a thug rapping about banging hoes. The studio owner goes with rapper B because he believes The thug Life is more exciting and rapping about monogamy is boring. So all of The rappers like rapper A Get filtered out. After a while, the Rapper A like rappers realize that they'll never break into the industry rapping the way they do so decides to emulate Rapper B to get noticed by the studio owner.

No, he was a narcissistic, hostile, rude and offensive 'guest'. Also he knew PBD visited Mar-a-Lago, and according to him, Trump supporters are toothless, uneducated and don't wash. He actually said that to PBD's FACE. Was that supposed to be FUNNY? As opposed to ignorant, drug using, combatitive, aggressive idiots lead by nose by a democrat, incompetent fool with Denentia. That crap about people listening to Aliyahs music was wrong, as she was an underage rape victim, and R Kelky was abusing her. Nobody knew that then. There were reports, but no evidence/arrest. When was R Kelly finally banged up for raping underage girls? That's like telling people not to listen to some Rappers because they've been in jail for rape, drug use, car jacking, armed robbery, etc. Talking nonsense.

[@xcalstl]

@@Mack9077 i never thought i'd EVER say it, but I prefer Adam over this CLOWN. The most self-obsessed, i'm right and you know it, so STFU, idiot, arrogant, who kept speaking over PBD. Dominating the topic of conversation, being aggressive and combatitive puts me off completely. He was asking deeply person business questions to PBD, and that should be discussed away from cameras, IF PBD WANTS to discuss and disclose his private financial dealings. He has competitors/enemies who'd use personal information for their own benefit. PBD wouldn't behave in such a way with a guest. Respect is a two way street. I never saw it from this one. Big YAWN.
