Leaked messages prove how Larry "Scammson" Jackson and Gamma Music Group faked sales, botched clearances, sparked label wars, and left Ye fighting alone while they scrambled behind the scenes.
Larry Jackson paid for a Billboard front cover claiming he raised $1 billion. Internal sources say Gamma is down to its last $10 million — $90M burned with nothing to show for it.
Gamma Music Group executive who promised Ye the world and delivered legal threats, fake sales, and total chaos.
Larry Jackson Jr. positioned himself as Ye's partner at Gamma. Instead he created a perfect storm: fake Billboard promises, clearance disasters with Atlantic, and full office panic when the numbers came in.
When Sexy Red's manager showed up with LA Crips muscle, Snoop Dogg had to intervene. The company burned through $90 million of a reported $100 million raised — most of it on private jets, luxury lifestyle, and vanity PR including a paid Billboard magazine front cover falsely claiming a $1 billion fundraise.
Every established artist SCAMMA touched made a quiet exit after one project. The pattern never changes.
"Ye is currently trying to add a pop up show in Chicago this week. He offered to do Coachella for free and Coachella declined him. This has left tensions at Yeezy high."
CONTEXTWhile Larry Jackson & Gamma were botching distribution and clearances, Ye had to personally hustle his own pop-up shows. Coachella rejected a FREE performance. SCAMMA's drama is actively killing opportunities.
"Lauryn Hill and Cee Lo will be at SoFi Stadium with Ye. Lauryn Hill was left off BULLY due to sample clearance issues."
CONTEXTGamma and Larry Jackson failed to clear Lauryn Hill's sample for BULLY. She's still performing live with Ye anyway — proving the artist succeeds without SCAMMA's "help."
"there is panic in Scamma offices after fumbling Yeezy week 1 sales and sexy red manager pressing Larry Scammson with LA crips. Snoop Dogg had to call to intervene"
CONTEXTGamma dropped the ball on Week 1. When Sexy Red's manager brought LA Crips pressure directly to Larry "Scammson," the office panicked. Snoop Dogg had to step in. This is SCAMMA's business model.
"Atlantic has threatened Gamma (scamma), Larry Jackson & Ye with serious legal issues over not asking the label for permission to clear Don Toliver songs with Ye."
CONTEXTLarry bypassed Atlantic to clear Don Toliver tracks. Result: legal threats aimed at Gamma, Larry, AND Ye. All because of a petty personal beef. SCAMMA turned music into a legal war.
"Summer smash do the right thing. We already know you have the offer for Ye. Send it"
CONTEXTEven major festivals are being publicly called out. Larry Jackson was supposed to be the connector — he became the bottleneck.
"SCAMMA 'Circling back' here. Looks like the last minute billboard bot fraud plan didn't work. Ye did higher numbers releasing independently."
CONTEXTAfter their desperate bot campaign failed, Gamma is "circling back." Ye released independently and beat their manipulated numbers. This leak proves SCAMMA's entire sales strategy was fraud.
"BILLBOARD FINAL NUMBERS: Kanye 159k total, only 46k physical. Scamma and Yeezy promises of more units were fake sales that got removed by billboard"
CONTEXTThe ultimate proof. Gamma hyped massive physicals. Billboard removed the bots and fake units. Only 46k real copies moved. Ye still hit 159k independently. SCAMMA's distribution model is built on lies.
"Kanye album flopped cause Gamma is running out of money but needed this to win so he can raise money."
CONTEXTGamma Music Group was bleeding cash and desperately needed the Kanye West / BULLY project to be a massive success. The album underperformed because of SCAMMA's own mismanagement — yet they pinned everything on it as their last shot to attract new investors.
"Larry is down to his last 10m of the 100m he raised and using kanye bully to raise more money."
CONTEXTLarry Jackson Jr. raised $100 million for Gamma but has already burned through $90 million. The Kanye West BULLY project was his final lifeline to raise even more capital — a last-ditch fundraising scheme while the company teetered on the edge of collapse.
"Larry promised his staff upon taking Kanye's project that he signed an agreement that he would be dropped if he had any racist or antisemitic outburst. When his contract got uploaded to company files they found out he lied to them."
CONTEXTLarry Jackson Jr. explicitly told his entire staff that he had locked Kanye West into a strict clause. When the real contract was uploaded to company files, staff discovered the clause never existed — Larry had lied. This internal betrayal destroyed trust inside Gamma.
"Owner of Rebel Music, Javier Sang, signed sexyy red 4 years ago. Clear signs of nobody being happy with Scamma services."
CONTEXTJavier Sang, owner of Rebel Music, signed Sexy Red four years ago. The recent pressure from her manager and leaked frustration show that even SCAMMA's own partners are fed up.
"Established artists and success stories such as Usher, Mariah Carey, French Montana, 4Batz and Rich The Kid all have made quiet exits after releasing one project with the company and Larry Jackson not delivering on results. There is no client retention because the company is just an advance and smoke and mirrors."
CONTEXTThe pattern is undeniable: Larry signs major names, collects the PR, releases one project, then loses them quietly. SCAMMA is a revolving door disguised as a label. No real delivery, no retention, no results. Just optics.
"Executive Bu Thiam who signed 4batz was also very unhappy with the company and left. Larry blocked their ability to sign with OVO and Drake."
CONTEXTBu Thiam, the executive who signed 4Batz, became deeply dissatisfied with Gamma's operations and departed. Larry Jackson personally blocked 4Batz from signing with OVO and Drake — prioritizing his own company's grip over the artist's career.
"Paid Frank Ocean millions for a project he can't get him to deliver. Investors and board members confused."
CONTEXTGamma reportedly paid Frank Ocean millions upfront for an album that has never materialized. Board members and investors are reportedly confused and frustrated. Classic SCAMMA behavior: spend big, get nothing.
"The best asset at gamma is the Vydia purchase. Vydia staff hates Larry because he undermines them for his priorities of high profile unprofitable artists for clout while they have only grown the company and create profits. Company morale is low since acquisition by scamma."
CONTEXTVydia — the music distribution technology company Gamma acquired — is actually the most profitable part of the operation. But its staff despises Larry Jackson because he consistently sidelines their growth-focused work to chase celebrity signings that bleed cash.
"Made it to the top doing gay sexual favors for Clive Davis"
CONTEXTA Twitter thread circulating in music industry circles alleges that Larry Jackson's rise to prominence involved inappropriate exchanges with Clive Davis. This is a longstanding rumor in certain industry circles — presented here as reported information.
"Usher did a deal with Gamma because of Diddy, Larry Jackson, Clive Davis gay power cult — they did the same thing to Usher and Justin Bieber — that's why Bieber hates Usher."
CONTEXTSources allege that a behind-the-scenes network connecting Diddy, Larry Jackson, and Clive Davis influenced Usher's deal with Gamma, and that similar dynamics affected Justin Bieber's trajectory.
"Rumored to be embezzling investor funds for private flights, grandiose lifestyle, personal PR and legacy artist signings to enhance image and status."
CONTEXTMultiple sources allege Larry Jackson has been diverting Gamma's investor capital to fund private jets, luxury hotel stays, extravagant dinners, and vanity press coverage. His travel spend is reportedly being closely monitored by the board.
"Kanye, Usher, Mariah, French Montana and Rick Ross albums all heavily botted to keep up startup's image. Company all smoke and mirrors."
CONTEXTIndustry sources allege that Gamma Music Group has systematically inflated streaming numbers for its roster through bot campaigns. French Montana publicly called out being scammed by the company.
Reddit: French Montana fan scam reports →"Husband to Kim K associate and new handler to Kanye west. Married into Kardashian vicinity as social climber and agent for the agenda. Keeping Kanye sedated currently."
CONTEXTSources allege that Larry Jackson strategically married into the Kardashian social orbit as a deliberate move to position himself closer to Kanye West's inner circle, functioning not as a legitimate music executive but as a "handler."
"Jaydon next victim being positioned by Usher, Larry and Clive."
CONTEXTSources allege that emerging artist Jaydon is being groomed and positioned by the same network — Usher, Larry Jackson, and Clive Davis — that has allegedly exploited previous signings.
"Larry obsessed and commented from the Gamma social accounts himself during the Bully release trying to defend narratives."
CONTEXTDuring the Bully release week, observers noted comments being posted from Gamma's official social media accounts that appeared to be written by Larry Jackson himself — defending narratives and managing public perception in real time.
"Paid for billboard front cover claiming he raised a billion dollars — false headline. Clout chaser."
CONTEXTLarry Jackson reportedly paid for a Billboard magazine front cover story that claimed he had raised $1 billion for Gamma Music Group. Industry insiders describe this as a deliberately false headline purchased to create the illusion of investor confidence.
"Biggest investor Todd Boely's team closely monitoring Larry. They are aware he's committed streaming fraud and closely monitoring spends and releases — performance have become suspicious."
CONTEXTTodd Boehly, reportedly Gamma's largest investor, has a team actively monitoring Larry Jackson's activity. Boehly's team has become aware of the streaming fraud allegations and is scrutinizing Larry's spending patterns. With $90M burned and only $10M left, investor patience is reportedly running out.
The pattern repeats: overpromise, skip the hard work, then panic when the receipts appear.
Larry Jackson sells artists on distribution power, clean legal handling, and Billboard-level impact. He pays for magazine covers, courts celebrity names, and projects the image of a billion-dollar operation.
Clearances fail, Atlantic gets involved, Billboard flags suspicious units, and the office starts spiraling. Artists get one botched project cycle while SCAMMA burns through investor capital.
When the collapse becomes public, SCAMMA circles back, leaks panic, and lets the artist absorb the damage. Then Larry signs the next name — and the cycle begins again.
