where to start...yes, diversified businesses for musicians are more popular than ever. but jay-z, e-40 with his burger franchises, the are the minority. i remember years ago on BET lil troy was talking about his new clothing line...haven't heard of him since. then the other end, people ike irv gotti. is he a producer? he's definitely a businessman, but his talent seems to be making money, i don't see him as the next phil spector, ric ocasek, or...anyone. the third side of the coin is people like slick rick, who has real estate and probabl does not need to crank out that next record for that next advance. one of the guys from black sheep (i think it was BS) hasn't had to work since the 90s because of real estate investments. smart move.
