Mostly true but what I've seen these last two years with Damizza, Dae One, Bishop, Taje etc.. they all work together really well and put out damn good albums.. which they have been putting out for free.. and with ALL of them I would have bought them.
But Aftermath isn't Westcoast!!! And were all tired of dealing with Dre and his slow ass label.Time to create something strictly for the westcoast that puts on it's own.
Honestly I don't think we want any of them running a label... maybe maybe Cube but none of the others. Dre takes forever to put out a record and don't put on the west. Ice T don't really fuck with rap anymore. Snoop.. well I like him but his production and features and shit just don't work. I think he would be horrible at running a label. Cube, WC & Crazy Toones are the closest to putting some real westcoast shit together.

It might look like from that perspective but it's not like Dre ain't co-signed a dude and had him go nowhere. Dre was a big part of Game getting over but there were a lot of other things too. If you look at the artists that have blown up on Aftermath (50, Eminem, Game), they aren't just great rappers who had Dr. Dre beats. There was a compelling story to go with it. In working with them, Dre has become a bigger name and that is the secret. If you're not bringing something to the table that the consumer can fuck with, it makes the next guy who fucks with you less valuable. People only see things one-sided but when you co-sign a guy, his success falls on your shoulders and people don't wanna hear excuses if the shit is a flop. Look at "The Big Bang". In my opinion, a very underrated album but it doesn't change the public perception involved with it not being up to Dre's standards in terms of how it is received. The bottom line is a gold album might be the shit to a new artist but you put someone like Dr. Dre's name on it and it's viewed as a disappointment and a slump. Now, what person in their right mind wants to build talent like that? If you're not giving Dre or Snoop the kind of boost that they giving you then it ain't worth it to them and they aren't the only one. The music industry isn't about "who can I help", it's about "who can help me"? Say what you will about Eminem and 50 Cent but they are at least able to create interest in their projects that is not based on Dre's involvement. It's like that old saying about teaching a man to fish instead of giving him one.
TRUE, BUT IN THAT CASE PEOPLE LIKE NEW FACES, THERE IS NO HYPE TO BE BUILD AROUND BUSTA RYTHMES, I KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT FROM BUSTA, WHAT ABOUT A BRAND NEW FACE, ID LIKE TO SEE DRE ON 106 WIT A ARTIST FROM COMPTON THATS UNDER 30 OR 25, OR JUST FROM LA, BUSTA GOT A FANBASE, IT HAS NOTHIN TO DO WIT DRE, IF THE WS LEGENDS PUT TALENT IN THE GAME, IT WOULD STICK, I BET ON IT, WE NEED EXPOSURE FOR NEW ARTIST, NOT YOUTUBE OR MYSPACE, BUT REAL EXPOSURE, GAME IS IN THE GAME, WHY CANT OTHERS?? IT AINT ABOUT RAPPIN OR MUSIC, IM TELLIN YOU
