i read the majority of it just now, a great read for most here i'd imagine. thanks to damizza for putting it out, free or not. maybe coulda been a pay what you like type thing like they do on bandcamp or steam with independent game bundles. i woulda put down some dollars based on the value of what i got out of it.

without going into crazy detail, couple of thoughts

dre - comes across as a very cool dude. current artistic situation seems to be all about the yes men/suits. not having enough poeple in touch with music from a fans perspective (like mizza) around him anymore. also the business as a whole as out of touch. a lot could be said about this topic, relating it to other parts of the entertainment industry and broader economic issues.

unreleased records - quik produced a track for mariah carey? also quik's work on b-real solo album. one track is mentioned as being amazing.

I'm gonna start with the Dre chapter today at work. So far it's been a great read. Very insightful :)

The entire book was a phenominal read. It nails a lot of what is wrong with the industry at this moment. And to nail home the point, if this had been released in physical form at a bookstore and I paid $16 for it, I would feel more fulfilled from that purchase then just about any CD I've bought since as long as I can remember. As a music fan that bothers me.

All in all, lots of great stories in there. I'd kill to get a physical copy of it. I can imagine a lot of these wannabe A&Rs that frequent this forum learning quite a bit from reading this. He breaks down a lot of the goings-on in radio.

Well said. I agree. This was a solid book, couldn't stop reading it until it was done.

Yeah it's interesting at the end of the Chapter on Snoop (Half of which is about Bishop?) where he has the conversation with Dre about Bishop and Jimmy about the industry, everyone seems way out of touch. Same goes with Power 105 trying to be a top 40 station and losing it's appeal. A lot of great insight, half way through the producer chapter now. Listening to Shades album as we speak 8)

well i was reading it for 3 hours plus. lots of things to talk about from here, we get the full story about bishop's grow up, dre's mentality about it. and a clear picture of why detox didn't come out/still hasn't come out from all that stuff.

Quik, B-Real & Nate Dogg were close to form a super group. It didn't happen because of B-Real.

Jaz Z had a beat by Damizza with Nate on the hook. Jay Z was only feeling the beat not Nate vocals so he didn't finish the tracks. It remains in Mizza's vault.
