What sort of business buys its own products ? Some of you obviously have never run a small shop let alone a corporation. You dont make money by buying your own product . Anyway , since the Enron fiasco there are now stringent accounting standards you cant pull off a stunt like buy your own album . ^^^^^ Your a fuckin' retard. They don't do it to "make money" they do it to attract interst to their artist. The more an album sells, the more people are going to wonder why and buy it themselves. SMDH....SOOOO simple minded. The industry has made BILLIONS and BILLIONS of money off of people like you lmao. 80. 1sec wrote on December 31st, 2007 at 3:22 am

Jay gotta wear 3 caps. Jay-Z the Artist, Jay-Z the President and Jay-Z the CEO of the Roc. so maybe label wise he got more marketing money but not just for him but his artists too like Kanye.It's seems like he stacking guap for the Roc, and right now he didn't have enough time to focus 100% on the Roc as president. Now he's back to the Damon Dash position where he CEO/Artist. you got Tru Life , Peedi, Uncle Murder and Kiss and others I probably not mention well see what pops off with they projects cause Tru Life been chillin for a minute now. He got dem mixtapes though. you know that’s real. Jay gotta wear 3 caps.

Compare Jay to his other CEO counterparts and you’ll see that he had a better run.

And go ahead and say it....they are a white label but if that is so, then why do they own Shady, Aftermath AND G-unit, 3 of the most prominant urban lables SINCE Def Jam. And all of those lables have produced INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTARS, 2 within the last 9 years? Get your blinders off so you can take in the whole picture.
