On the Thursday, February 28th episode of #EverydayStruggle, DJ Akademiks, Nadeska and Wayno discuss Offset embracing maturity, with plans to quit lean and stop the glorification of drugs in his music. Then the crew discusses legacy act De La Soul being robbed by their label Tommy Boy with a 90%-10% profit split on their albums which are now set to be available on streaming platforms. This lead them into fan questions about: 1. Artists doing too much to get their streaming numbers up. 2. How a bad label deal can affect an artist’s career, with Rich Homie Quan and Ace Hood as examples. 3. What it would take for a designer within our culture to create a fashion brand that could rival heritage brands like Gucci, which have been under fire lately.
