Diplo

I worked without management for a long time.

Yeah.

Then I got it.

I was like, I already kind of knew the business.

Not that well, but I knew like, oh, this is how you make money.

Like I was still.

I made most of my money in the beginning of my career by selling physical copies.

Like I bootlegged my own shit or selling vinyl.

Like I knew like that's the business model.

You know, that's what, that's what Master P did.

That's what like, you know, Baby did with Cash Money.

It was mixtapes and selling it like locally.

I knew that was like a business model.

That's why Baby might be the, he might be the richest person in hip hop.

Because he had Cash Money and then he had Young Money.

He had like, it was literally Nicki Minaj, Drake, Lil Wayne, all signed to him during the heights of their career.

And,

And then he's also like a gangster.

So I feel like he might secretly be the biggest, the richest person in hip hop.

Well, I'm going to say if you just want to be a songwriter, you don't want to travel because you can get money by traveling.
