Method Man

That solves your problem of how do you feed all of these guys.

Well, now we have options and other ways to feed ourselves and other people.

But here's the biggest part about it was you have these labels that are vying for people in this group, nine people.

So it's a lot to choose from, first and foremost.

So you're going to get the guys that you feel are best first, and you're going to capitalize with those guys.

But in the midst of you capitalizing on those individuals, you're working for one brand.

Not only that, you're working along with other labels too.

for one person's cause, which was ours, which was, I don't even know if that was masterminded that way, but it worked so well because we were on so many different platforms at once where I would drop an album, then you get a GZA album, then Ray would come after that, Ghost, now you got another Woo album.

So by the time we dropped our second album, there was so much anticipation it had to be a double album.

So, I mean, these numbers work.

And as far as the monetary thing, I can't even say it's 50-50 because you would have to ask the individuals.

But for me, it's always been 50-50.

I've always been on board with whether it was team or for myself.

That's just how I work.

And the way these things work...

You have to speak to everybody as an individual.

You can't speak to us as a group anymore, you know, especially with how long we've been in the business and how lucrative we've been on our own.

So when we come back, we all come back with an understanding that this isn't a me thing.

It's an us thing.

But when you're on that stage, the way we format our shows, everyone gets their time to either... Let's call it like a solo act in a play where it's just two actors on stage.
