I remember reading an interview with The Black Eyed Peas years ago, and according to them the only reason they ended up leaving Ruthless was that Eazy had 30 plus acts signed to his label at the time of his death and when he passed away their album just got lost in the shuffle. If I had to guess, I'd say that's probably what happened to Blood of Abraham too. I'm sure in '95/'96 the label was more focused on the more gangsta style rap, particularly Bone Thugs N' Harmony.

Well, Ruthless didn't really have a chance after Eazy died. He basically left the label to someone who apparently had no business running a record label.
