Ras Kass - Got fucked over by Priority, by cancelling albums, etc.

There are way too many that got fucked.
Ultramagnetic, Kane, Public Enemy by Def Jam, Above The Law by Tha Row.
In the end, it's a money thing and labels always wanna control the shit artists wanna put out.

Big L by Death.
-
as for Aftermath.. King Tee even though in the end it has been released.. Hittman definatly.. Rakim definatly not.. he wasn't even getting attention before he signed and his album is coming and it's way more anticipated than it could ever be if he hadn't signed
-
Blac Haze- got fucked over by dying too soon
-
I'd say the one who got fucked over the most is Brotha Lynch Hung because of Black Market Records.
-
2Pac by death...
Big Pun by death...
-
Pun gained more popularity by death than he ever could've gotten alive. I like a few of his songs, but most of his stuff isn't really that great. Now you hear him mentioned in sentences next to Big and Tupac.

Bone Thugs N Harmony...why?, you ask? well ask why and ill tell you
why?
-
cormega- by def jam, he has a whole album completed on def jam never released
Sam Sneed- Had a whole album completed on death row, never released
-
that's easy CANIBUS- he is the illest rhymer ever and noone knows it...
and whoever said that pun only has a few good songs needs to shoot themself right now, peace.
-
People that comes to mind is:
Ras Kass
50 Cent (Though eventually made it, but after going through hell and more)
Hittman (Partly responsible himself, they say?)
Canibus (^^^^^^^^^^^^^^, but more or less chose indie himself)
Royce 5'9
Tech N9ne
Shyne (P.Diddy fucked him in the ass, to go free himself)
The Lox (P.Diddy, once again. Slave-contract..)
Jayo Felony (Def Jam + Westcoast artists)
M.O.P. (Several hits in a row, Loud Records fucked up, shoulda went gold)
Warren G (No promotion but w. possible smash-hit = no sale)
Knoc-Turn'al (One possible SMASH-hit, ruined by delay after delay)

Alerg, no need to be so hostile just because I have different taste in music than you do. Many other people agree with me, maybe not on this board, but this is only a small percentage of devoted hip-hop listeners. I don't think Pun is all that great, I've heard a few of his albums and I wasn't too impressed.
-
The D.O.C. - Definitely would have been Top 5 of all time if he wasn't in an accident.

I've never really cared for Pun myself either.

^^ Ditto
He had some nice multis, but he was str8 up boring to listen to pretty often.
