What if Dre signed Crooked?

[doggfather]

Then Crook would have sat on the shelf even longer than he did.

[LostAngel]

Then he would write for Dre, wouldn't get credits for it, and when it's all over, he would left by himself. Simple. That's Aftermath's tradition.

If you want to be technical, since Crooked I is signed to Shady with Slaughterhouse, he is basically signed to dre too.

Nope.  Shady Records is its own entity, just as G-Unit was.  Also, Slaughterhouse is signed to Shady as a group, not Crooked as a solo act.

crooked i would of popped if dre wouldof signed him around 2003 when 50 cent & g unit was popping & got 50 cent to push him like he did game then crooked would of been in a mainstream posistion like game. Game signed at the right time.

[Okka]

If a solo project by Crooked I was given backing by Dre and green-lighted by the record labels overseeing it, then I think he would have been in the same lane as 50 Cent was back when 'Get Rich' came out.  

I don't think he would have been in the same lane.  People like to act like all Dre has to do is co-sign artists and they will be as big as 50 Cent but Fifty had already manufactured a huge buzz for himself and had all the right pieces in place to be a huge star in 2003.

bullshit dre and snoop cosigned jay rock and his album didnt sell shit

Did you actually even read what Jimmy H said?

He probably would have learned to construct a good song.

If Dr. Dre signed Crooked-I, he would never release an album..... Oh wait LMFAO Crooked-I hasn't realesed an album. So I guess it would be the same.
