Every record on the second installment of Bobby Tarantino is all about having a good time. Now, we know why Logic is so damn happy. Def Jam renewed the rapper’s contract by writing him $30 million check.
During an interview ‘Beats 1 Radio’ Zane Lowe, Logic revealed the whopping sum of his new deal.
“Well, for me the life changing money…when I first signed my deal it was for like…the advance for $200,000. So going from section 8, food stamps and welfare to $200,000 was life changing,” Logic said. “But life changing that I’m talking about is the $30 million deal I just signed.”
Logic appeared on the national scene in 2013 with the release of his his mixtape Young Sinatra: Welcome to Forever. It was Young Sinatra that resulted in Logic’s signing with the iconic Def Jam label. A year later, the rapper’s debut album, Under Pressure, was released and peaked at No. 11 the Billboard charts.
