''It's Kind of Like The Price of Admission...'' 2:00PM ET December 17th, 2010 Contributor : Jecquea Howsie A Rocky Williform Company
Music producer Soundz has worked with everyone from Justin Bieber to Usher and recently decided to put at least one rumor to bed; in a recent interview with That Grape Juice, Soundz was questioned about whether or not Beyonce actually writes any of the songs she takes credit for, well, not that we’re all that surprised by it, but it seems that her statement wasn’t entirely accurate.
“It’s all about money and power, and she does it because she can,” Soundz says. “Well, she promotes the record to the highest level. She’s the best in the game at promoting a record and when she does one of your records you’ll get a single, radio, commercials and movies. There are so many different types of money that comes with Beyonce when you do a record for her so it’s kind of like the price of admission – the price to get all the other aspects is that you have to pay a little bit. She’ll want a little publishing and that’s guaranteed; she’s going to ask for it and you’re going to give it to her; no 'ifs,' 'ands' or 'buts.' She’s going to make that record the biggest hit in the world so give her that publishing. She’ll take about 20%.”
Like we said, we’re not surprised.
