Anyways, my main question is that if Suge felt this way about Tha Realest, why did he 1) not kick him off the label sooner and 2) have him featured on Too Gangsta 4 Radio?Suge wasn't in control of the label at that point. I mean, he had final say so but Reggie and Michel'le were in control. Reggie and Realest are still cool with each other. It benefited Suge as well to keep him on, because it made him money being a 2Pac biter and all, plus he just stopped fucking with Tha Row after that because his contract didn't expire until a few years later. If Suge doesn't like your antics or your attitude towards things, he's going to keep you there for a good while in artist purgatory. He tried doing it to Crooked I for when he spoke to Irv behind Suge's back. He did it to K9 as well when he was no longer affiliated with Death Row - his contract didn't expire until 2006, so he technically stayed on until then. Plus, it's bad business to put your views about the artist in public. See, only reason that Suge doesn't like people like Dr. Dre or Snoop is because they didn't sign over their publishing and shit. Also, the jury was paid a good 4 million in Snoop's case for the murder trial - so he owes Suge. Anyhow, I will ask more about the situation but all you got to do is ask the two dudes (one being a producer and the other being a Death Row artist) about Tha Realest and they'll tell you. I'd say on here, but Realest really tries blackballing dudes who know the truth about his sheisty ways. There's also a real fucking stupid reason Realest doesn't like K9.LOL at Tha Realest being important enough to try blackballing people in the industry. I heard the reason for K-9 leaving was because of the "Makaveli's riders scared to ride" line off "Gangsta'd Out".

Realest got put on MOB back when he first arrived to LA. This is a major reason why he had such good treatment on Death Row, was the most showcased artist on "Chronic 2000". He had several MOB members on stage with him at his show in Hollywood 2 weeks ago, he's in with all the OG's in Leuder's Park. I don't know where all these wacky stories came from. But him leaving Death Row did have something to do with Suge, but nothing to do with A) 2Pacor B) Being shot.The bottom line is, this was 8 years ago. As of now, there's no drama there, they associate with the exact same people, and they've spoken in recent years.

Well, Crooked I spoke to Irv about signing with The Inc. while Suge was incapacitated again. When Suge got wind of it, it seemed like Crooked I was going behind his back. Suge wasn't having it on, on top of that Crooked I did other things to upset Suge.

This was way after the Say Hi To Tha Bad Guy getting pulled incident. I wonder if Suge was giving Crook a 'second chance' to redeem himself? Crook never came off the same music-wise it seemed after they pulled his release of Say Hi To Tha Bad Guy.I guess if Wideawake releases Say Hi To Tha Bad Guy that will be Crook's ultimate label revenge when the album has the Death Row logo on it but Suge Knight's name isn't listed as the executive producer. It seems Crook is pretty excited about getting that album out on his interviews.
torreno r u n real fucking or sumfing bro?
