peeps aint giving E the respect he deserves coz he wasn´t a great rapper and he died of AIDS.
. dr dre's credibility is ultimately what was permanently damaged. people still bring up the "lipstick and lace shit" when they are dissing dre, and eazy brought that to the forefront with the pictures and all of that. when pac called dre out for being gay, the lipstick and lace shit was ultimately what people pointed back to, plus other rumors and speculations. dre is still downplaying that shit in interviews today whenever people mention the beef.
I think the red lettering made my cataracts erupt
eazy put out good product. an eazy e album (other than 5150) was going to sound good. n.w.a. albums sounded good. eazy was the original cat with the label putting out hits, before death row. ruthless accomplished more than death rowand even aftermath. they had platinum crossover hits with r&b (michele) and pop. i'm calling j.j. fad pop. dre is still dreaming about putting out a successful r&b album on aftermath.
The only people reppin Eazy's name are bone thugs, dj quik and most recently the game, this dude pioneered gangsta rap and doesnt get any of the recognition or respect he deserves. Is it because he never diied a gangsta death? people always shout ou big pun, pac, biggie, but why not E?What yall think?
nobody cares about schoolly d. no disrespect to ice t, but dude is simply a hustla. i respect that, but t gets way more respect as an actor than a rapper. i doubt ice t could walk around door to door and give away a million copies.but getting to the point, look at this thread. you've only gotten 7 responses and some of these cats are hating on e. people don't really appreciate eazy for what he did.did he write his own rhymes? he never even claimed to. he literally has verses like:"ice cube writes the rhymes, that i sayto hell to them niggaz from cia"it was part of his appeal. he had interviews in the source where paperboy was flowing in the session, so that eazy could learn not just the lyrics but the flow as well. noone cared.eazy put out good product. an eazy e album (other than 5150) was going to sound good. n.w.a. albums sounded good. eazy was the original cat with the label putting out hits, before death row. ruthless accomplished more than death row and even aftermath. they had platinum crossover hits with r&b (michele) and pop. i'm calling j.j. fad pop. dre is still dreaming about putting out a successful r&b album on aftermath.every label ice cube started failed. dre can't run a label, he's only a figurehead. eazy actually had the heart to release artists he believed in without insane hype. dope or not. eazy dropped artists like jimmy z, yomo & maulkie, tairrie b, tab & da villon, steffon, h.w.a. blood of abraham...eazy had heart. some of those albums were pretty good. in contrast, dre and aftermath can't release king tee, or rakim, or eve, or dawn robinson, or rc (eazy did drop a po broke n lonely album)...death row is notorious for not dropping artists, and they probably have better albums buried in their vaults or simply lost forever (lbc crew, whatever sam sneed was working on, crooked i) than half the artists on their current roster. eazy e got material out, he got artists released. above the law, kokane, ruthless atleast has classic albums out that didn't sell, not shit tucked away in a vault. eazy dropped bone with no fanfare, that shit sat on the shelves six months before they released the single and video for thuggish ruggish bone and the shit took off. look at black eyed peas. eazy first signed them as atban klann, they dropped a single under ruthless back in 94. "puddles of h20" eazy was dropping artists that far ahead of their time, dude could truly find talent.eazy did so much, and so much of what he did was not as an artist, but as a record exec. if i add up all of eazy's music that's still good as an artist, maybe it's a double cd. but if i add up the music of all his artists and groups that he put out or atleast introduced; it's huge volumes of music.one last thing, take a look at the ruthless releases circa 93-95. "manufactured by ruthless records". they had the in house producers, they were working out of audio achievements studios, they had their own manufacturing. ruthless had everything in the music production chain locked except for distribution, and he was talking with russell simmons and some other black label heads about putting together their own distribution. this was around the time when he fired jerry heller. you look at labels like aftermath or death row now, they're aren't doing anything near what ruthless had in place back in '93. who else has their own manufacturing? ruthless had the independent shit locked and eazy was showing cats how to do things back in '93; cats simply can't compete with the type of money eazy was making off his sales even today. which is why eazy could drop artists and see if it sold or not on their own merit. ruthless didn't have to brag about their strings of platinum releases to make interscope happy; or woo koch to the table or whatever.why doesn't eazy get the respect he deserves? because people don't realize he was making the cats these days look like clowns off of what he was doing way back in 1993/1994.
I don't care what nobody says......................Eazy-E is Top 5 Eazily and i agree witt tha thread starter. tha nigga doen't get tha respect he deserves and he was a big inspiration to alot of our favorite West Coast rappers.
