I think part of it, sadly, has been Tomica and Ruthless' awful handling of the estate... Pacs had how many posthumous albums? Atleast 5 off the top of my head, heck even B.I.G. who didn't really leave that much unrealeased stuff had 2... Even if it's just remix projexts, you have to do SOMETHING to keep the name out there. On the 10th Anniversary of his death, where was some sort of big name release? they did this a few years ago: Impact Of A Legend :Release Date : March 26th, 2002Label : Ruthless Recordstype : LP/DVDTracklisting :01. Intro02. Eazy 12303. Cock The 904. Switchez05. The Rev (skit)06. No More Tears07. Ruthless Life08. Still F**kem Fail. Remix beats were garbage. A big name would have helped it a little bit, the producers they picked on here were just wack, period. Like bad. The guest features were so-so... and that's being generous. Unless Ruthless themselves step up to the plate and invite big name West coast producers to remix some songs, it's prolly gonna be like this for a while. Bottom line his name just isn't out there enough... Big Pun and Big L get more love...

What I wanna know is why is there a movie about biggie and pac and now 1 about nwa in the works but there wasn't a movie about Eazy. Eazy E is THE Godfather of Hip Hop, no1 who has came out since or b4 then can dispute that. If it wasn't for Eazy, we would just now probably starting to hear cuss words go mainstream in rap music as a "new" way to market Rap towards/for the youth lol. Yeah, he wasn't the best rapper and maybe u might think he didn't even have the best beats and so what he didn't write ALL of rhymes but 1 thing is FACT, Eazy E started this gangsta shit that everybody's been doin' since since (the style and everything), and it's truely an American Tragedy how his legacy has played out. Truthfully, when you're talking about Hip Hop how do u NOT mention Eazy E and talk about what he did for this game.
Quote from: midwestryder on May 04, 2010, 02:40:55 AMi agree with you that eazy e needs a movie but i don't agree with what you said about eazy-e being the godfather of hip hop when that is not close to being true . the godfather of hip hop is kool herk. also ice t was doing everything eazy e did way before him.all eazy e did was milke gangsta rap famous but it was schooly d & ice t who really started this gangst shit . no we would heard cuss words in mainstream in rap music without eazy -e because of too short ,ice t , & 2 live crew. sorry but it was 2 live crew who was berhind the cussing not eazy in hip hop . see this shows you don't know you history at all & only go by what main stream media told you . 2 live crew & too short were cussing & making a name before eazy -e . so know your history ,youngster because you don't.
he didnt write his own songs,he was a mediocre rapper and he gets as much respect as he deserves.
see you proved me so right with your igorance of how you think. . kool herc is the only godfather of hip hop . eazy-e was known as godfather gangsta rap & nothing more. eveything you say is bullshit opinion & not a fact at alll .so your thinking comes off like igonorant new schoooler & that is why you get treated they way you do by me/ sorry but you are so wrong about too short or 2 live crew not having as much influence as eazy e. see you are overratting eazy when you say that . too short & 2 live had the same amount of influence as EAZY e & that is fact.alsostoo short madxe cuss word famous not eazy e at all .so get shit striaght becuse you are the one wrong . i have been listening & living hip ho since 1982 . so that means i know more then you & seen it up close compared to you . ice t's music never sounded like house music with rap and cusswords. this jsut proves you are full of shit . ice t was original gansta rap style & west coast sound.also i never called you my son ,stupid ass . sorry but i do know you by what you write & it shows you don't know anything at all. that is fact you are going to have deal with . only stupid ignorant new schooler who only listen to main stream would write what you write . so save it ,youngster. eazy-e's music was never him anyways who was behind any of it . ______________________________________________________________________________________________-no i'm sorry, your wrong about all of that shit. i'm just gonna leave it at my nigga Eazy was at the White House (so who had the bigger influence) and Ice T's music did sound like some funky ass ghetto techno i dont care wat u say, it was Hip Hop but definitely TOO house influenced. http://www.amazon.com/Rhyme-Pays-Ice-T/dp/B000002LC6/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1272985905&sr=8-8*EDIT: and let's not forget that BOTH of those albums (Rhyme Pays & Eazy Duz It) were both recorded and released around the same time in 1986 and 1987 so don't go jumpin' ahead of urself tryin' 2 make me look dumb. i'm not a target. And yeah right now i just googled this but Schoolly D came out in 86' nigga, around the same time as them also. I think $hort came out in like 83' with his first tape and it wasn't even soundin' like tha shit he started makin' after Freaky Tales if i'm not mistaken and if I am it still doesn't make me wrong about Eazy. $hort didn't even really get poppin' poppin' til the late 80's.
