It probably didn’t sell that many copies. But isn’t he supposed to get royalties from the few that did sell? I believe artists make most of their money going on tour, shows, etc.

I only heard that song 1 time…money was made off of it?

royalties? he ain’t write it. haha artist make like no money unless they go on tour and stuff… he better stick to putting weaves in heads!

Royalties? Im sorry, but I never heard this on ANY radio station or music video channel. So what royalties? From what? When wad this a hit????

He did recorded a song with Kandi label, but I have to agree, I didn’t hear on the radio, but I didn’t hear tardy for the party that Kim song, and Let keep it real Kim got paid, but Lawerence didn’t!

@JB tardy for the party was picked up by Itunes and people bout it by downloading it, that’s how Kim got paid. #factcheck

I don’t blame Kandi for charging studio time, etc. However, she should have done the same with Kim! She even invited Kim to tour with her, which was not smart, being that Kim had not handed over a dime for Kandi tweaking the song, producing & promoting it. Like NeNe said, Kandi wanted a friend & Kim wanted a hit song…..

I don’t think promotion from Kandi would have made a bit of difference… Frank Ocean is one thing; "Miss" Lawrence’s flaming behind singing about being a closet freak for some man is another. baby steps ppl lol

Kim got paid because she basically stole the royalties, lets keep that real! Kandi should have been the highest paid off that song, she wrote the song, produced it, etc… that was clear when it was bought up on the reunion show. Kim did her wrong with that song! Lesson learned for Kandi for sure. Kandi is a boss, she is making money regardless!

Totally believe Kandi, the song and theme were garbage. Nobody wants to pay hard earned money to hear Lawrence’s big nose tail complaining about being "closeted." But I have to say, those boots he wore last night were so freaking sick, it was ridiculous!

Well, Kandi just confirmed my first thought after reading the title of this article. My first thought was, "Did the song sell anything to actually have royalties"?

Lawrence should have tracked his own ITunes sales. That way he could have determined whether he was owed compensation or not. Also, if he didn’t write or produce the song, he’s likely not due anything, even if it sold 100,000 copies. He would have to tour with the song in order to make any real money.
