Before you Sign…



What You Should Know Before You Sign the Deal can be 

found in this book…

Unlike any other book about the music business, 
“Music Business: It’s a Dirty Game!”,

this book is not a ‘puff piece’ about the glitz and glamour 
about the music business.

This book takes you on a journey from the excitement of 
having a music publishing contract with a major music 
publishing company to the legal battles that 
followed.

I was contracted with Zomba, (Britney Spears & R. Kelly’s 
label / Jive Records music publisher – now BMG-Zomba 
placed within Universal Music Publishing Group making 
them the worlds largest music publishing business.)

This book contains proof of corruption and demonstrates 
tactics used to steal the Artist lives by 
using  supporting documentation; such as, copyrights, court 
documents and public records.

Reading this book will give you more insight on exactly what 
steps that you can take to protect yourself, what to look out 
for in the contracts, protecting your materials and choosing 
the right attorney.

It is my goal to reach every aspiring artist to ensure that 

they are aware of all the tactics and methods used by most 

of the industry professionals.

You just can’t make this stuff up!

Fact:  “Zomba was major music publishing for Jive Records now BMG-Zomba publishing company and placed it within Universal Music Publishing Group, becoming the world’s largest music publishing business.”

Sample Copy Entries  and  Blog Entries:

Zomba’s Initial Response to allegations of copyright Infringements came in these envelopes marked ‘COMICS’

Below:  This page is directly from major music publishing contract and it shows the songs listed, which demonstrates Zomba’s knowledge of works. They later deny possession of listed works.

Note: Brownstone is listed as looking for work on Zomba’s casting sheet. Their song, “If You Love Me” was the first song using my lyrics and melodies mentioned in Lawsuit.

​Google Tactics –

WHAT DON’T THEY WANT YOU TO KNOW?​

The other websites had the same upload but they have it posted correctly…

​Google Tactics – Google Search shows my book for $0.99 on Amazon; Of course, this is incorrect. Amazon has the correct price but Google is being real shady with this search results. Yes, I have asked them to remove listing repeatedly.

Finally, I was able to have Music Business: It’s a Dirty Game! removed from their Google Books and Google Play websites.

Google Images Search for:  Music Business: It’s a Dirty Game!

Google Images Search under ‘Music Business: It’s a Dirty Game’ shows images taken from my book and then immediately list this idiot on the comode, counting money…and…a penny listed a little ways down…’I wonder why that is?’

I purchased an Ad from Facebook and this is a copy of Ad tracking where they stopped all activity at $2.11.

I guess if you have millions of dollars and entertainment avenues at your disposal, it would be easy to use these resources to inflict harm and hinder individuals but it should not be that way in the ‘Land of the Free’. They should be held accountable.

Note: On June 24, 1996, I provided court with 2nd/Revised Complaint that was ‘set forth in short, plain statements’ as required by law.

Note: U.S. District court seal, dated Jun 24, 1996 at 10:45am

Original Complaint filed On May 20, 1996, I filed a lawsuit against BMI, Zomba and Jive because of their lack of response to my request as to how BMG, MCA, EMI, WEA, Polygram and Jive have released songs which blatantly infringe upon my copyrights.

Note:On July 22, 1996, Courts dismissed my case prior to Zomba’s Response dated August 7, 1996.

I never had an opportunity to go before the judge and be heard. I never had my day in court. No court reporter, no court appearance, no right to be heard, etc…

Courts responded,‘Although it (complaint) is now in paragraph form, the amended complaint continues to be organized and incomprehensible. It is not a ‘short and plain statement’ of the basis for plaintiff’s claims…and does not abide by Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for pleading, it must be dismissed.’

As you can see above, my revised complaint complied completely with Fed. Rules of civil procedure but the courts ignored..was presented properly but was ignored.

Note: On June 24, 1996, I also had previously requested counsel be  assigned in accordance with Federal Rules of Civil Procedure to prevent protraction due to lack of management. See below...
