Alright, this is a thread to call out any "customer" that has ever ripped anyone off to put people on the look out for them. Or the ones that tries to. You know who Im talking about, the one that doesnt pay. Either those, or the ones that are looking for free work. The ones who promise you "promotion" in exchange for free work and other nonsense. These people need to be put on blast. Some designers are too naive and will believe it when a person says they'll pay after they work. They get taken advantage of.

But back to the point...Call out some shady people. So that others can know not to deal with them if we ever cross paths. Or if they do choose to deal with them, then to at least procede with caution.

THE LIST:

JT The Bigga Figga

He was mentioned before and JT called me a couple weeks ago and we had a long talk. Well ... still a bad businessman but well, we on good terms as I can say that. Grown men just gotta move on and stop hating from time to time. The problem between me and JT is that we have the same work ethic.

He made a contest about the "2Pac The Way He Wanted It" Cover ... you can win $500 cash, I did the first volume and won the contest, send him the cover, never saw any money, he said 3 month later he sorry and had some problems and is broke so he be sending me 50 CDs and some other shit, I never even got a CD, a friend of mine in NY bought the CD and send it to me thats how I got it. And he still wanted me to do Vol. 2 - 3 but never did. I tell you I can fill a book about those storys and stuff that happend, yet alone everybody got the JT story and its hillerious. lol

the thing with me is, since I am from germany, a lot of people think they can fool me lol and never see them anyway. A lot of cats I work with in NY dont even know I am from here, I got a friend going to them pikcing up money and shit before i do shit. and telling them I be living in Ny and he part of my company.

Trust me...there's not a lot of money for most freelance artists/photographers when dealing with rap.

i've always been sure to make sure my liability has been limited when working over the web.

i take money up front and always come through. as far as i'm concerned that's the only way to go. if that's not agreeable to the client... womp womp.
