Taking to Twitter, the group allege that they haven't been paid for beats that were used by Chance the Rapper. The group contributed to "Cocoa Butter Kisses" and "Everything's Good (Good Ass Outro") from the rapper's 2013 release Acid Rap.
"Flying Lotus is right," they tweeted. "Y u think we aint been working with ur favorite rappers lately? I doubt that Chance the Rapper even pays producers."
When asked by a Twitter user if they were compensated, they replied: "Man, we ain't never seen a dime for nothing that has our name and Chance's name simultaneously on it."
The production trio alluded to even more MCs who haven't ponied up for their beats. "Maybe we should've said more rappers," they commented. "I mean god damn, even Gucci Mane paid our fee! Welcome home guwop!"

I'm thankful we came up when the industry and artist still respected producers and our fees. I feel really bad for the new guys...

On top of the fuckery, the music industry is probably THE MOST RACIST business ever. Black music is in turmoil financially & creatively

Producers, set your rate. (Fairly based on your position in the market) don't budge. If they don't wanna pay, they was never gonna pay u
