Well, thanks for givin' us more info on it, but it gets old when every project dre has anything to do with has like a 15% change of coming out.  I'm sure Suge held back a lot of the album releases on deathrow, but now you've got Jimmy holdin the same stuff back on interscope? That's pissy when you've got artists sitting around for what, 8-9 years now in King T's case (which I'm sure is a lot of his fault) without an album dropping.

To me it seems kind of obvious that hittman was arrogant & lazy check that shit he was in the studio but he wasn't waitng around for an engineer & they had a studio bus on the Up In Smoke Tour but he wasn't feelin that shit. Hello you are working with Dre, Em & Rakim do you truly realise the oppurtunity you had Hitt???? Your time should have been spent between the studio, writing songs and promoting yourself get on Radio Tv etc

Ca-Tash on the blast the final piece to the puzzle
I slap bitches on the ass I slap tits up out the muzzle
I shuffle with the microphone, bang rhymes consistant
You wack and I'm Ca-Tash and that's the motherfuckin difference
For instance, "21 and Over" set your clocks back

It's all Jimmy Iovine...he is the ultimate power.  Dre just makes the music.  Jimmy doesn't want another "Aftermath," "Firm" / King Tee mess like before...cause he saw Hittman as another King Tee, and he didn't want that.

YO..... You are crazy man..... Nothing happens at Aftermath without Dre's approval.  If Dre wants an album to drop, it drops.  Jimmy Iovine has no reason to question Dre.  How can you question a man who has been a part of some of the greatest records and hip-hop labels of all time.  You can't.  Dre owns the business.  He owns the creative end of the business.  Interscope just helps him when he asks for help, and picks up there percentage of the money.  PERIOD.  That's how it is.  Dre dropped Hittman.  And Jimmy is cool so he's going to take some of the heat off Dre.  But if Dre still wanted Hitt, he'd be there, no doubt!!!!!!

Shady/Afternath have sold more the 50 million albums world wide since the release of the Slim Shady Lp.  and by the way Murder inc and bad boy would have to more than triple their sales in the same time period to beat that.  
GOD DAMN 50 mls!  :o  :o  :o
Rich motherfuckers  ;)
Thanks for the infos MellowMan!

After reading the interview I knew people would come at Dre like it was ultimately his fault. Seriously though, as much as I love the stuff i've heard from Hitt so far I doubt he would ever blow up the way Dre probably hoped he would, and at the end of the day it seems to me like Dre helped him all he could, he gave him that oppertunity to shine on "2001", he didn't have to do that, he could easily of found someone else or put more Eminem or Knoc on the tracks. To me though it doesn't seem like Hitt holds much against Dre, I believe Mellowman when he says their still on good terms. I'm sure we all wish that Dre and Hitt had done more together but we don't know exactly what went on behind the scenes so it's pointless for us to point fingers. I just wish Hitt the best, i'm looking forward to hearing more from him in the future, i'm sure he'll get another break sometime soon.

I think that if you take one of the 'O's' out of 'Good' it's 'God', if you add a 'D' to 'Evil' it's the 'Devil'. I think some cool motherfucker sat down a long time ago and said 'let's figure out a way to control motherfuckers'.

Thanks Mellow, I appreciate it.


I really enjoyed your part about Shady & Aftermath as one label.  Now that they are merged, this just makes them a strong label.  Sort of like Island/Def Jam.  

No one can fuck with them now, cept maybe for Def Jam...

Dre
Eminem
Rakim
Ice Cube
50 Cent
Truth
Mel-Man
Brooklyn
Shaunta
Joe Beast
Obie Trice
D-12
Focus


That is a fucking sick lineup.

They are on good terms because Hittman is in denial.  He doesn't want to believe the truth.  The truth was that Dre had no use for him anymore, didn't want to keep paying him.  So he had Jimmy do his dirty work.  Peace.
