    The Temps had high standards before they signed with Motown. Thus, they adapted well to Motown's high standards...at first. They eventually discovered that Motown wanted too much control over them. The Temps cherished their artistic autonomy and they became chafed by Motown controlling that aforementioned autonomy.

    So, what is the lesson here to be learned? If you have talent and can consistently produce a marketable product then you are an asset. The important thing to remember is that you are in a business to make money. To prosper in the music business requires you to acknowledge this and maintain a standard of excellence while understanding all of its dynamics. That means the strength of your last performance. It means a total understanding of this industries reason for existence. It is to make money. A while ago I had a young talented man ask me just what it takes to make it in the music business? I told him it requires not only your talent, but your education. Put simply, the person who will rip you off is the person who will profit from both your success and your failure. Your success because they will enjoy the profit you made them and your failure because you were too stupid to appreciate it and how to go about getting your share.

    Ok, now this AI or whomever this voice telling the information is always getting things WRONG. Paul Williams was never a drinker until he found out that he had a spot one of his internal organs and he was dealing with Siclecell anemia. He was I'll and became depressed which is when he began drinking. The drinking lead to having issues during performing with the group so he was kind of put on a hiatus for a period of time, he continued to get paid by the group regardless of the circumstances of him not being able to perform. Otis always saw to it that Paul was still paid. The fact that he was not working with the group sent him into a further downward spiral. The gun that he was shot with was not in his hand. You want to tell a story, then get your facts straight. And do yourself a favor stop repeating yourself over and over again.
