Why are people still stuck on Ruthless & Death Row?

[Code Blue]

Haha. I thought you'd never figure it out  

In all honestly though, I've never ever heard Chono's diss(es) to Pac. So nah, that ain't why I think he's overrated.

R.I.P. Tupac Amaru Shakur. Greatest emcee ever. Period.

Right.

I bet whenever you hear Chino XL, you say: Fuck you too!

I'm say this once only...Whoever thinks Suge wasn't a MAJOR factor in Death Row's success is someone who does not know tha business...Tha fact that he used guerilla tactics and got MAJOR distribution which waz like WOAH in that era MADE Death Row...No way he can do what he did back then in this era because everyone is doing what he started doin except it's way easier now but at tha same time harder...tha top 10 singles of this week is all hip hop...what does that tell U? I'll let yall draw yur own conclusion...

all depends who you believe... a lot of stuff out there says they only got their deal as it was because of Dre.. look at Dre.. left Death Row, walked straight into another major distro, without Dre, they cant distribute shit apart from Pac.

You are such a dumbass...

Why? Because I make a good point that you can't argue? Haha. Crooked I isn't that special? So, I guess making Chino XL look like a rookie in a cypher, destroying tracks with Ras Kass, Planet Asia, Scarface or Sly Boogy is something every rapper can do?

There you proof my point. I wasn't saying that because of your opinion about Crooked I and Chino XL. You're a dumbass for saying that Suge Knight wasn't one of the main factors behind Death Row.

People who still have hope for Tha Row are pretty damn dumb. It wasn't the label or Suge who made West Coast rap so big in the early to mid-nineties, it was the artists signed to the label.

It was both. You and I, well you don't I suppose, both know that. You try to act like you know everything about music business, but you just don't.

I mos def don't know everything. Everyone knows Suge got them to Deathrow, but the artists were the ones making the huge hits. Not Suge. I'll say it again: If Suge was so damn good, then Tha Row would still be on top of the game today. Look at their talent pool. Besides the lacc of a good producer, it might be just as good as it was in the mid-nineties. Suge ain't shit but a bully, thug, thief, bacc stabber, liar, gangster, etc.

Let me also clarify my statement for you Suge lovers. Yes Suge played a major role in the rise of Deathrow.  He muscled his way in and made things happen.  Suge is also however the major reason for the fall of Deathrow and he has burned so many bridges in the industry. When Dre started Aftermath, DR was still on top and Aftermath had a dissapointing start.  Look at them now...Is Dre a thug?? NO.  Does Dre spend time gossiping and talking about other people's business?? NO.  Is Dre a talented artist/businessman??? YES.  Being a thug/bully with no real music talent simply does not last. Want proof??? Look at Suge Knight....You Crooked I, Eastwood fans should hope they will have the courage/balls to see the light one day and leave Deathrow before it's too late.

Are you serious? Suge didn't do nothing? Who do you think go Dre out his contract? Suge. Dre would still be getting fucked at Ruthless if it wasn't for Suge. If it wasn't for Suge's money there would've been no Deathrow. Like I said, Dre would still be getting fucked at Ruthless, Snoop would probably be on the street still, there would be no DPG, and Pac would still be in jail. Btw, Warren G was never signed to Deathrow, and ATL was signed after the "era" was done.
