That's my fault...sometimes I speak as if the other person knows exactly what I'm getting at.
Let me be clear:
Illi is a rapper (and to be fair and give credit where it's due - he's talented.) Wale is a rapper.
As it stands right now at this exact moment, Wale's mark in the industry trumps Illi's.
Here's where I come in:
Paul Rosenberg is an entertaiment lawyer. I'm an entertainment lawyer as well.
There are many things Rosenberg has done that I could
or
at, but if we were to speak face to face with him looking at me square in myeyes and asking me, "How many Oscars, Grammys, or AMAs have
your clients won? How many of
your clientshave had chart topping albums and blockbuster movies? How many multimillion dollar deals have
you brokered?" - I would havenothing to say.
He wouldn't be asking me to slight me, he wouldn't be asking me to be condescending or scoff at me - it would just be an honest question that I wouldhave no answer for.
...and that's when it would hit me:
Maybe I shouldn't be worried about how many of Em's skits Paul has been on or why he wouldn't advise against a grown man putting their $$% in theface of his client...
....maybe I should worry about myself and my own career - because obviously, Paul is too busy to worry about me.
