Post by: Dedicato on March 15, 2007, 10:38:03 AM
In this interview with G.A.G.E. Aftermath Music talked to him about his album "My Life", his collaborations, "Detox" and why he left Aftermath. He lets us into some of his thoughts and recent business moves, his own company AMPM, as well as future plans.

Any exclusive info on "DETOX"? Like has Dre talked to you about his vision for the album? I know you can give us something!

G.A.G.E.:
Not much. I know he just got Mel Man back with him. So they can get the same energy and vibe from the Chronic 2001.

cant wait for detox! 8)

That was expected. I'm just curious how every rapper manages to convince you to believe in their stuff, simply through reading one interview. It's insane, and I never even liked GAGE :D

nothing but expected....i think gage knew he would never get an album out, he accepted his role as the tax man,haha....end of the day, it got his name in peoples mouth....but the bad thing is once you leave dre, its very hard to get back after that....nobody gon take you much of the time if dre had the chance to get you stamped and chose not 2

only interesting thing was he got melman back......interesting how suddenly when dre doing his own album, he needs the nigga again

The tracks by him I heard were good, but I just couldn't see him coming out with an album on Aftermath.  Not when there's so many higher-profile artists on the label, and not when hip-hop sales are declining.

Yeah GAGE was nothing more than a tax write-off.  Just cuz someone is signed to Aftermath doesn't get me near as excited as it used to.  That label's been diluted.

True dat. I expected GAGE to be kicked off after writing lines for Detox. Maybe a lot more work has been put into the album then we thought. :o
