Anyway, this month, he apparently made enough money off of the iTunes sales to move his family out of the projects and into a better house.
This truly amazes me, because it shows how far the realm of entertainment has evolved over the past generation. Keep this in mind: there are many celebrities and musicians that created or sowed the seeds of the various musical and literary genres we all know from popular culture that ended up dying penniless or never mastered their finances to the point where they could move out of the 'Hood or the projects. Now, being able to act fast, package original content and get it to the market ASAP to capitalize on fleeting popularity can make you a big success.
I was wondering what all this money would turn into. He got a pretty sweet deal from iTunes, despite everyone accusing them of exploiting him and his situation. I'm glad it didn't get wasted.
Castle: This is so weird. I dressed up as him for Halloween.
Beckett: Me too.
