ruthless was doin' well until she came and she doesn't do anything to keep eazy-e's legacy alive so fuck that bitch !
But we know why people hate Jerry - cuz he offer N.W.A bullshit contract and was taking Ruthless for him, but Tomica? Another question: Lil Eazy-E is son of her?
If wasn't then Cube wouldn't leave like Dre later They get 70000$ split for 5 guys - after Straight Outta Compton sold 2 milion copies. Don't U think that ~10k for multi platinum album is bullshit? For comprare 2Pac get 1 milion every milion CD's sold, so they get less then 1/10 of it.It was the same problem with Eastsidaz - Tray Deee and Goldie get only 1%. They tried to reach 15% - 5% for every member, but didn't make it.
With Bone, it mainly came down to money, as in Bone wasn't getting as much as they thought they deserved. Which is the same for 99% of artists--nobody feels they are getting enough.But there are some other reasons. "Heaven'z Movie" was butchered on release, with many songs being left out or cut down to one verse, which did not help Bizzy's career as a stronger album would have helped him quite a bit, and the material was there. Flesh was removed from songs from "Art of War" because Tomica didn't want to pay him (he was never under contract to Ruthless). And "Thug World Order" had many of their best songs removed for lesser ones, which hurt them as well. But really, these are typical music industry complaints. I'm sure she was in over her head though. She didn't sign one single act that did a thing, for example.

Plus with Heaven'z Movie, there were sample clearance issues all over the place that prevented a few songs from being on there (hence why Bizzy dissed Seals & Croft and Paul McCartney in the liner notes). Flesh was still on The Art of War, maybe four or five songs... but that's nothing new, as he was usually only on one or two songs anyway on the previous bone albums.

Also, at that time, people weren't getting the kind of deals they can get now.
