HWU 1.2: Money, Money, Money!

Money is what moves the industry. But music is not the only way industry heads are making that money from. Time after time after time again, we see people taking those risks.

Damon Dash decides to rival myspace. He even said it himself that he is in it for the money. After seeing how much myspace sold for, he saw the potential in creating his own social networking site called BlackSavvy. It is a little different, and has nice features, such as virtual money systems and such, but if you ask me, you can't beat myspace!!! Too many people are on myspace, but oh well, when you're rich you can do what the hell you want.

Now this risk makes a little more sense. Joseph "Rev Run" Simmons decides to write a book. He signed a deal with Gotham Books, for more than $1 million. So what is this book about? His run with Run DMC? Music? The Show? Nada. His book will be about family issues, and this I will have to take a peek at. The way he handles his fam on the show is funny to say the least, but thats not saying he is a bad parent, he knows how to handle his business. This will be interesting.
