Back in the 70s and 80s we heard stories about "the casting couch." Then now I'm hearing stuff about how Puffy gave it up to Clive Davis, who owned Arista records, home of Bad Boy records through the 90s. So the "tutelage" he got from Davis, he passed on to his proteges. Yeah, I'd say the rabbit hole gets pretty deep & dark.
Yup. I’m almost 40 born and raised in Southern California not too far from Hollywood and all of this shit has been known out there. It was an open secret heard about this when I was in junior high.
Facts. As a man, no matter what, certain things you won't do. Money or no money. To get millions of dollars but all it does is remind you of the corrupt shit you had to do to get it is hell bruh.
Nah, it's a war out there and in here. Complacency should be a crime. I'm fukin Done with everything this guy has balls gives me some hope...not much but some
Mr. Demond Wilson has stated that these things have been going on since Fatty Arbuckle. “The game stays the same, it’s the players that change” I’m paraphrasing. Thank you for the video! Glad that all of these things are getting more coverage.
I'm 50 white, Scottish and Tupac for life. How come we know all this before you all. No Diddy No Drake and no Jay. Wtf. Been researching these folks over 30 years. We all not all that dumb
I have a feeling a lot of people don’t know the true colours of people. Yeah we all know puffy, jay z, Beyoncé etc are apart of them, but people really don’t consider Biggie, the whole of Nirvana, eagles, etc to be apart of them as well. This is bigger than people imagine it to be. It’s to the point where I can only name artists who aren’t apart of it.
Thank you, could not said that better myself. We all wondering how come you others don't know nothing. Can't you see evil, hear evil and say no to it? They telling and showing you everything in the open, that's the rules.
Dmx said it, Pimp C said it, countless of battle rappers said it… ever heard about the meeting in the late 90’s with all the execs and they were told not to sign talent but people that don’t have talent who can eventually start their own? That was diddy and em
@ yup exactly!! I was an independent artist myself and hearing about it turned me off… what diddy is being accused of is facts but the problem is every label participated. Before signing a contract they invite you to a party. If you don’t sign they will show you a footage of “what you did last night” either someone penetrated you or you penetrated another person “same gender” I’m not into any of that
I love that the younger generation is waking up and causing a shift. I'm in my 30s and our generation has been researching and exposing these things for years. Definitely remember when this video was released years ago along with countless others that TH-cam had removed smh
Whats funny is that the bible talks about ALL of this but ppl don't wanna listen 😂. They were giving up their booty holes since before the flood during the days of Noah .
I'm 46 and my goodness ..... I never ever knew this kinda stuff was going on in the entrainment business 😢😢😢 ... This is terrible just awful and shameful my God ..... I'm praying for all of the victims men and women 🙏🏼 . Let's find these missing children
Remember. Always. NO MATTER WHAT! You're fulfilling your PURPOSE S.K. No glaze, you a born leader. And this World needs More This! You're Appreciated. Keep Pushing Integrity and Morality
I agree with Stevie and those guys who gave in need to reap what they sowed, but that being said, I think the same sentiments should also be thrown at women. This mentality isn't a man-only thing; its about "self-respect" that applies to everybody. If you are doing these things for your own gain, then it also comes with the consequences, and no one should try to downplay or brainwash people into giving them a pass for their choices. I know Stevie sometimes holds men and women to different standards (some of his videos are very evident-when women do certain things to "get the bag"), but for the most part, everyone shouldn't be demoralizing themselves just to get money for a lavish lifestyle; that stuff always has consequences that get way worse over time.
Stevie ... still putting out quality content!!! I appreciate your passion and hard work to deliver us amazing content... love the channel bro... keep doing your thing
you feel exactly the way i fell about this situation. I used to love making music till i found out what it was all about. then i took my foot off the gas.
Salute! We need to hear your take on Trump losing his case & needing to pay $85M +$5M Everyone has to get the smoke equally My-Guy not just black celebs.
Another thing is I don’t think it’s for fame or money but the pact that is being made is sacred to them. They still doing this shit from centuries ago 😂
I remember the early days of youtube, there used to be many of these videos of rappers speaking on this stuff It was very easy to find Now, not so much but it's growing again
Same sh*t been happenin' since The Beatles, to be honest. John and Paul signed what the industry calls a "death for success contract". They pledged their lives for the success of the band, aged 21. (Paul = dead and replaced by Sept '66. John = dead by Dec' 1980...)
Sins are how people agree to allow disembodied spirits to use their flesh to fulfill the desires of those disembodied spirits, or demons. That's why the Bible instructs us to not sin. It's not to control us. It's to protect us from the influence of those spirits working through people. Ephesians 6:12: "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, and against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places(spiritual realms)".
I really enjoy the Stevie knight channel.. i appreciate his love for rap and hip hop.. i respect his educated and thoughtful remarks on his reactions... i especially like his evolution on eminem ... at first he didn't respect his music and the more he listened the more he realized how nasty of a mc he is... i grew up with eminem , i was a teenager when slim shady came out and i do consider the marshal mathers lp one of the greatest rap albums of all time... but Stevie's channel is definitely entertaining!! I rarely see a video on this channel that i skip.
a lot of these rappers don't want people to know they gave up that butt for fame .you can tell the ones that blew up fast from nowhere . Diddy got all their butts and passed them to the next .
If I was a rapper I would rather have my own label and be independent then to sign to a major record label that’s why I have so much respect for E-40 and Tech N9ne because they built their own they didn’t bend over💯.
2:06 IKTR!!!! Aint no way i can be swayed , i remember it like it wqs yesterday. My mom was watching the biggie funeral on tv and her and my dad got up heqding to the kitchen and my mom cussed for the first time and said " PUFFY AINT NO GOOD, THAT MF IS PURE EVIL" i will NEVER FORGET IT. Now im older and i get it now!!! What i dont get is the parents that pimp they're own kids out , like usher mom, justin beiber mom, all these parents how yall sell your kids off knowing what was happening to them? Nothing on this earth could make me throw my kids in the lions den . You telling me no one has talent like whitney or MJ? There out there , these labels just take the talentless person whos willing to bend over instead
Remember when Bey's drummer accused her of tormenting her spiritually? On some lesbian type of time? It was real. That spirit on Bey is very strong. I know someone who went through that listening to her music. Be careful. The devil is real and everyone is a pawn to him.
Yeah I was already proud to say Tech my favorite rapper, but all this shit coming out about so much of the industry being booty bandits, I can't help but laugh knowing my dude said fuck all that and did his own thing
10:54 and thats why i respect tory lanez 🙏🏿✨️ real independent talented artist. Homie peeped the game and cracked the code and j couldnt have that!!! And set him up!!
What else is new. Nothing new under the sun. What's happening to rappers and hip hop artists today means its their turn. This was documented back in day Golden Age of Hollywood. Today we have social media platforms so anyone and everyone can speak and reveal stuff. It's wicked to say the least. Lol.
I know MY Shepherds voice, and it guides me. I trust Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Yeshua, more than I trust myself. Anyone who would want any different for you or from you, it stands to reason that they don't have your best interests.
When you stand for nothing you fall for anything 💯
I would choose broke over broken no matter what !!!
This 100%
Its a shame that money talks to those willing to sell their soul.
LoL! 💯

Don't put anyone on a pedestal. Anyone.
In this era we get to lose our heroes. One after the other, sometimes many at a time. It's good, be your own hero.
Say that again. LOUDER

Thank you for speaking on being a real man . People have no shame
A real man with balls unknackered well said. Rare unfortunately
@@Laurennicole82*unknackered* 🤭🤣 thank you for this word!
Like Kat said, "you have to be in tune with your star playa" to be true to yourself and pass on the $$$ for your manhood/dignity
This information been out for, year's, I'm glad y'all just catching up, i was called crazy 12 year's ago
Facts. As a man, no matter what, certain things you won't do. Money or no money. To get millions of dollars but all it does is remind you of the corrupt shit you had to do to get it is hell bruh.
exactly, no amount of money is worth your soul.
Your soul is priceless , hence why the devil will give u anything for it , simple as that .
I'm sure the dream wasn't to make it by getting turned out. Therefore, they still didn't fulfill their dream.
Exactly 💯
Remember always wake up with a smile on your face and don't let no one get you down peace brothers
Nah, it's a war out there and in here. Complacency should be a crime. I'm fukin Done with everything this guy has balls gives me some hope...not much but some
Love this ❤ Yes the world would be a much better place all around.

I'm 47 yr old gal who loves rap, heard all this freaky ish years ago too. It's nothing new to our Gen. lol Much love✌️🫶

Wtf ..... Because black people don't think like this we don't do things like this that's why we don't know about this
Just goes to show that "EVERYONE & EVERYTHING AIN'T WORTH STRIVING For The FORTUNE & For The FAME"....
Great Video, Stevie K!
💯👍🏽😎✌🏽
Meta glasses, smart watch, smartphone, smart ring, tablet, wire set everything to record😂😂😂
Dmx said it, Pimp C said it, countless of battle rappers said it… ever heard about the meeting in the late 90’s with all the execs and they were told not to sign talent but people that don’t have talent who can eventually start their own? That was diddy and em
Em? lmao
@ them
I remember hearing about that very meeting and looking at everything that's being exposed now it makes sense.
@ yup exactly!! I was an independent artist myself and hearing about it turned me off… what diddy is being accused of is facts but the problem is every label participated.

Makes me appreciate the 1 hit wonders and raise a brow at anyone successful
This & many still in rotation over here. Better than majority of what's out today but that my opinion 🫠
I love that the younger generation is waking up and causing a shift. I'm in my 30s and our generation has been researching and exposing these things for years. Definitely remember when this video was released years ago along with countless others that TH-cam had removed smh
EXACTLY! Thank you 🙏🏾 What happened to dignity and self respect? There’s nothing materialistic or egoic worth trading your dignity for.
I’ll never sell my soul for paper…period. 🇻🇮🇻🇮

He's right. He didn't say ALL people. I bet a majority of the ones who sold out, said NEVER until they did.
OMG , you a whole fool. You said shitting on your chest. I can’t. 😂😂😂 I watched this about 5xs. You are funny.
Fresh Cut my brotha! Keep on doing your Thing and keep on grinding! Greetings from Germany
It 🐝 the 25 years it took for 1 person to finally listen that you gotta beware of. Why would it take that long to shine the light 😅

I'm sorry, but when are we going to talk about ALL the other celebrities involved in this.
It looks like they are going to be broken sitting on the side of the road. They are all getting sued and going to jail now! As you speak!
Salute!

See, the people don’t even know who that man is that was talking, and he gave up his manhood for money.
And if he did he would be the perfect person to say yes that stuff happens in the industry because he went through it himself which is dumb 😂.
Nah eff that I would never give up my dignity for no reason.🤨
I like the way you work it ' No diddy'
Happy new year yall

Damn bruh, I love recording music myself, But I just be a underground cat forever if i have go through this just to get a deal.
Preach!
The only thing better than fame is complete anonymity.
Imagine the time of the gladiators, when you had to go up the ranks, and the older fighters were the bosses to be passed...the other direction.
So you saying they 'did it' like today too?.
Morals& values
Money is the root of evil
Fall for anything, stand for nothing.
Selling your soul
damn stevie not holding back🤣🤣🤣😂
This a question to Mr. Knight. Whats your faith statement and do you have one? Are you an atheist or theist? What you about if I may ask?
Fabulous- north of Montana.
His fit is fire.
a lot of these rappers don't want people to know they gave up that butt for fame .you can tell the ones that blew up fast from nowhere . Diddy got all their butts and passed them to the next .
Casting couch has always been spoken of. This is the same
I think 🤔 that NDA means don't snitch, just like the street NDA if you sign the NDA and you continue to return your part of the problem
I’m not surprised
Bruh that thumbnail..I can't stand looking at Jay for long.. idk how Beyonce does it, props to her! 😂
If I was a rapper I would rather have my own label and be independent then to sign to a major record label that’s why I have so much respect for E-40 and Tech N9ne because they built their own they didn’t bend over💯.

I would NEVERRRRRR bro. Im good man Imma stay humble and in my lane, but not that bro. I'm broke, not desperate
I don't know if I can take anyone serious that would make a pledge to a cult.
Remember when Bey's drummer accused her of tormenting her spiritually? On some lesbian type of time? It was real. That spirit on Bey is very strong. I know someone who went through that listening to her music. Be careful. The devil is real and everyone is a pawn to him.
