Snoop's success at Dogghouse was a result of leaving the South, and getting back in touch with Dre and local homies from the LBC that shared the same musical vibe and vision as Snoop....Much love to Dre and Suge Knight for maintaining Snoop and the Dogg Pound's artistic integrity while they were on Death Row.Suge Knight >>>>>>>> Master Pmaster p taught snoop how to run a label, duno if u consider those "bad tricks", but it did help snoop out in more ways than one. dogg house woulda never been possible without the business acumen master p passed down to snoop, which P himself soaked from the bay.....also, while we're on it, 2pac soaked most his game from the bay as well, which is a major part of why he was as good as he was. if master p was running a major label and was advertising beats in a magazine, that would be a different story. however, from an independent standpoint, anything goes when ur tryin to reach the top, and based on master p's rise to mainstream takeover post-this ad, i'd say he was doin it right. what alot of ppl didnt understand was p had a gang of connections in texas to help his empire grow fast as it did..he had a southwest wholesale account..so cds got pressed up fast and cheap ...n he had pen n pixel account who did graphics n shit cheap...put those 2 together..n knowledge of how often the consumer gets paid...he put albums out damn near every 2 weeks...he literally turnt his label into a trap...when he brought out the different color cd cases u can say it represented crack vials..or weed baggies...but put in a low key genius way turned the rap game to a dope game..red cds were fiends..p was his connect..blue cds was snoops ..p was his connect..orange p..etceverything was cheap..n u got more for your bucks vs the competitors ...avg cd back track was was 15-17 song..p had 20+ funny all these dboy rappers today didnt pay homage to the ice cream man...p >>>>>suge every single way with out bullyin his artist.or the controversy... everything p put out in a 5yr span went gold or platinum, and they were all nobody..n he didnt lose his catalog either..kept all his masters...didnt lose it

Now, P, he made a name for himself off of his grind. He sold records out the trunk of his car. His biggest collaborator on No Limit from 91-94 was E-A-Ski. And he was with Ski around the time Ski broke into the mainstream. He didn't go out and sign let's say Too $hort to a record deal to create his label. He didn't strong arm others into doing what he wanted. It was pure grind.
If you believe Suge was a better business man than Master P, you're either A a fan boy of Suge or B do not know shit about business.Suge took one of the biggest artists in the West Coast at the time and built the label around him and his beef with another one of the biggest artists in the West Coast at the time. Dre jumped in the studio with D.O.C. (an artist that came along from Ruthless), Warren G (his family), Snoop Dogg (Warren's friend), Daz (Snoop's family), Nate Dogg (Warren/Snoop's friend), RBX, etc. etc. Suge didn't build a conglomerate.
