In a previous post, PRODUCE laid down the law when it comes to a performer cancelling a booking for another indie booking. It is unclear if the company was addressing the situation with Marcus Mathers.

If you cancel an existing booking with PRODUCE for another independent contractor gig that isn't a full time contract, all future bookings will be terminated.
