Jaylen Brown says he used the NBA Players Association instead of hiring an agent for the NBA Draft because they're paid to help players
“When I entered the draft, I didn't have an agent. I'm probably the highest picked selected ever that didn't enter with an agent. When I was evaluating, I went through the whole process and sat with a bunch of people, and what they was offering I ain't really need. It was kind of already slotted, so I leaned on the union a lot more”
“A lot of the agents came and was like, ‘Yeah, we'll move you to L.A. We'll get you a trainer, put some money in your pocket,’ and I was like, ‘For what? Do I gotta give the money back?’ They was like, ‘Nah, but standard agent fee is 4%.’ I'm starting to do the math, and a house, car, and all that, whatever he was offering, is a lot less than what 4% would have been”
“Long story short, the math wasn't mathing for me. I ended up being the third pick. I think because I came in like that, a lot of people, I think it was the agents, they tried to slander my name a little bit, put it in the media that he's too this, he's too that. Ended up backfiring. It all worked out in the end”
“With the union, we pay dues. All the players in the NBA pay dues. We all pay like $10,000 out of our salary that goes to hiring lawyers, hiring staff, CEO, everything that you need to lead a company that works for us. So all of that is our resources that we all pay for, that we agree to. Once I learned that, I just started using it”
“I'm talking about you can get private investigations done. They give referrals for financial advisors. All type of stuff. Foundation wise, health insurance, whatever you need. They have a liaison that's paid to make sure that you get it done. So I put it on their desk like, ‘I need you to get this done.’ And they do because that's their job”
Naevah called Blueface and crashed out on him for leaving her to care for their unborn child alone while he moved in with his new wife, Ashley, at their new house 😳
Naevah: “You’re going to leave me to give birth all by myself?”
Blueface: “You need to know what you got going on.”

T-Pain says Ye actually used Auto-Tune before him and shares that Ye flew him to Hawaii to help with 808s & Heartbreak because he felt T-Pain had mastered making love songs over heavy 808s.
“He was like, you just didn’t know how to market that.” 🤣
“TEXAS IS CHEAPER THAN CALIFORNIA”
Rent
Los Angeles: $2,656
Dallas: $1,588
Minimum wage
Los Angeles: $18.42/hr
Texas: $7.25/hr
Hours worked for rent
Los Angeles: 2656 ÷ 18.42 = 144
Dallas: 1588 ÷ 7.25 = 219
You have to work 50% more to afford rent in Texas. That’s more than two weeks EVERY month.
Let that sink in
