Continuing yesterday’s conversation about the value of record deals, here’s a great article by Chris Lee on the L.A Times Music Blog about the mechanics of Drake‘s deal.

Delayed: Young Money Beat Submission Winner
Thank you to everybody who submitted tracks for the Young Money beat submission.
Over 250 beats were submitted, and amongst them were some certified bangers!
The winner was supposed to be announced yesterday, however due to Young Money’s busy schedule with the tour, the winner announcement will be delayed. 250 beats is more than we expected and quite a lot to go through while touring the country.
I don’t want to offer any set dates as to when the winner will be announced, in case that deadline can’t be met; however I’ll try to arrange it with them to go through all the submissions & choose the winner as soon as possible.
Thanks again and best of luck to everybody who entered!
Welcome To Producers Week
Welcome to Producers Week!
Producers Week is a one week themed “event” on MakingTheMogul.com that focuses on the producers.
Throughout the week, I will feature several hit producers and producer managers, offering insight into the business of music production.
Whether you’re just starting out and want to learn about how others started their careers, or you’ve been producing for a few years and feel like you still need further insight into the industry or a bigger opportunity – Producers Week is for you.
This is my first event of the kind on makingthemogul.com, so I welcome any and all comments/suggestions on how to make it better for the next time.
Thanks and I hope you enjoy it!
**UPDATED**
Now that Producers Week is completed, below is an index of all the features:

Response To The Power of Twitter
I’d like to address some of the questions and comments raised regarding my Twitter Exclusive Experiment, where I premiered “Throw It Back” from Mack Maine ft. Lil Wayne on Twitter.
I know it’s been over a month, but hey – it was the holidays.
Better late than never :)
New Music: Mack Maine ft. Lil Wayne – "Throw It Back"
Lil Wayne, T-Pain & Mack Maine "Got Money"
The latest single from Lil Wayne‘s infamous, The Carter 3, just dropped. The track is called “Got Money” and features T-Pain and my bwoy Mack Maine.
Everybody already knows who Lil Wayne & T-Pain are, but let me give you a quick rundown on the homie Mack Maine:
- From New Orlean’s Hollygrove district
- Been a member of Young Money since its inception
- Can be seen at Lil Wayne concerts everywhere providing on-stage backup
- Featured on numerous Lil Wayne & Young Money mixtapes
- Has 2 mixtapes out with DJ Smallz (G-Series 101 w/ Currency & B*tch I’m Mack Maine)
- Featured on “Shovelin Snow” from Birdman‘s “Fast Money” album
I’m happy to see Maine get more spotlight like he’s sure to get from this video. I mean.. a video with Lil Wayne & T-Pain? With the amount of attention and airplay both these artists get, you couldn’t possibly ask for a better outlet to the mainstream audience.
Lil Wayne. T-Pain. Mack Maine.
Hey… all three of their names rhyme. It’s kinda fun to say. Try it out.
Lil Wayne. T-Pain. Mack Maine.
Lil Wayne. T-Pain. Mack Maine.
Lil Wayne. T-Pain. Mack Maine.
Okay, anyways, here’s the video:
