Shady Business??


Wale gets blasted by GoGo bands story by: YBF Blog

D.C. rapper Wale is getting blasted by his home team–the GoGo Bands who have backed him on many of his tracks. And they all did it in–of course–Twitter. Apparently TCB and Backyard Band are saying that they are receiving no royalties for the sampling of their music. They started telling people to request the radio stations to STOP playing pretty girls. TCB and Backyard Band both removed their rants. But here’s what Anton A (an events promoter who helped Wale on his come-up) sent over yesterday about his beef with Wale:

People have been hitting me up asking me to present this story to the world. A major beef has ensued in DC with rapper Wale VS My Self (Anton A), TCB, and Backyard Band.

Backyard and TCB, legendary bands from DC are not beefing but upset the Wale has not given them proper credit for using their work. TCB is upset he sold the right to their song Ice Cream girl which blew wale up in DC to HBO. Backyard is upset that he shout the Pretty Girls Video in LA with out Backyard, who the songs belongs too. They all gave him permission to use the song but got no love in return. Wale is mad at me because I put it out their.

I did all Wale major party’s when he was coming up. The manager or marketing director on Love and Park the biggest clubs in DC reweeted my comments about me standing up for Wale when people did not want him in club(@MissJulesDC & @KellyMLC09). I did several wale shows when people refused to endorse his music. Now he wants to beef with me because I understood where TCB (@BounceBeatKings) and Backyard (@BackyardBand) are coming from.

He said when I see him its going to be a problem…I told him come see me at Park tonight.

Can’t ever forget those who helped you on your come-up. Because they will remind you and put you ON BLAST.

Ain't that the truth....funny how some things work out man. Hopefully those differences can be worked out because that's not a good look for the #DMV movement and it's definitely not a good look for homie in the long run. Stay tuned.....

**HOLLYWOOD**
DC Stand UP!!
