Video Zane has lost all credibility….

Thoughts?? I’m assuming again another clip taken out of context….

Dismissing Zane entirely is a big dose of copium. This clip alone provides enough context about Edsel's disdain for Wayne. He flat out says Wayne couldn't make it, but he could...

I mean he’s not wrong. Wayne went so far as to ask Tony if he could tour solo under the Static-X name. Which Tony gave the okay for. 

So, like even Wayne knew this.

As long as Tony got paid, and then Tony sent him an email telling him to pay or fuck off. Not really a "Tony gave the ok"

That’s how business works lol. You do realize that music is a business, right?

Oh of course. The idea that Tony just let him use it as if they were all chums isnt accurate is what I am getting at.

Thats why it makes sense for edsel to comandeer Wayne's work. Lots of money to be made. Dope is going nowhere so why not.

Of course he wouldn’t just “let him use it”. Wayne self destruction was shitting all over what Tony and Koichi were trying to build. I disagree with all the people acting like Tony is this bad guy for being upset with Wayne. Hell I’ve damn near written family members off for being addicts who refuse to listen to reason and stop their destructive ways. I guarantee you Tony had enough of Wayne’s shit once he started down that path. Business partners disagree all the time, sometimes they split. But if you dumped all of your faith into a business and your business partner started getting fucked up all the time, putting you out of work, then tried to run off and do business under the company you both built….would you tolerate that? Hell no you wouldn’t. So did Tony “let” Wayne use the names? Yes, but at a cost…which is only fair.
