well it's like this he's with a lable that don't give a fuck about him i would never do anything with him on the row
now i want to be the first too tell yall kurupt is still on antra he is working on his third solo shit for antra tha row could not afford the money it would take to buy him out so tha row sent him over there to finish his contract and pay off 2million he owe's plus 2more albums so like i said before until he is a free agent he is still on antra suge used him for the publisity no i cant work with him he has betrayed the hole dpgc's and we still dont bring him up on shit............................. chuurrrchhhhhhhhhhhhh
i will be putting out some music we've done in the pass some shit we just done

sounds like kurupts put himself in a shit situation. he's got to put out '2' yes '2' albums before he can put an album out on the row - plus he (according to this) can't (at the moment) call up on the dpgc's... so he's gotta work with the new row roster (maybe?) and roscoe.

Sounds like a bad situation... 2 million + 2 albums in debt plus all the people you coulda called in for extra sales won't work with you.

he's going to have to go double platnum  on his next album or platnum on his last two to pay off that debt

To Do That He's Gonna Have To Either :


1) Go Sooooo Pop Hes On MTV Rotation 24/7

2) Go Back To Streetz Style And Reclaim Some Respect, Status & Fans That Want Him Back To That Standard


Damn Kurupt - Hope Ya Know What Ya Doin!!


peace

Dam.  Looks like he has worked himself into a corner.  I feel sorry for him.  He just wnats to make good music and be respected.  :(.  I think he should now try to settle thinks with DPG and forget about tha row.  After he has released his next 2 albums he should maybe think about starting his own label or joining another.

hmm...couldn't suge go and do whut he did with jerry...hold a gun up to the main man @ antra and get him to void the contract? nah i'm just fuckin wit ya...seriously...kurupt has put himself in a really awkward situation...that is gonna take some time to get out of....cos he's gonna have to spend time on albums so that they sell...then maybe after he has done those 2 suge will gladly lend him the money to pay off the rest of what he owes?? who knows...we have to wait and eh??

Ha, yall are twisted.

His 2 options:

1.] Stay on antra, owe them 2 million, and 2 albums.


2.] Go to the row, get money from them, notoriety, new friends, new record label, still owe antra 2 million and 2 albums.

By going to the row, he still picked up cash.  So what he's got the other contract to fulfill, he would have had to do that anyways.  AT least now he's got the row's money, too.

Especially when you aint' got no money, half your blood's starving, and the other half won't do songs with you.  Think about that for a second.  He owed 2 MILLION FRIEKIN dollars, and Dr. Dre can't do a song with him?  Thanks Dre, now get the Hell outta my house.

how did he get that far in debt in the first place?  i know kurupt ain't exactly a star like a snoop or a dre, but i would think that his rappin would pay the bills unless the record companies fucked him.  how did he get put in this position?

why are y'all blaming dre? if it wasn't for dre putting kurupt all over 2001 kurupt's streetz iz a mutha would be selling the same amout as R.A.W and too gangsta for radio, and kurupt would be in even MORE debt, if anything dre helped him more than anyone , shit kurpt has so much royalties from 2001 , which is one of the highest selling rap albums ever, and right now thee highest selling back catelouge rap album right now...dre's the last person you can blame kurupt's problems on

word,  i have one question though for those that blame dre for not helpin daz an kurupt out.  Is it possible that maybe they dont want help from dre an snoop b/c they wanna try an get out of there shadows,  they rather suffer than have to rely on dre an snoop.  I dont think it is dre an snoop fault unless kurupt came to them an dre an snoop told them to fuck off.  An secondly,  these are grown men,  they shouldnt have to rely on others,  maybe thats suptin to think about.  Maybe kurupt realizes he is a grown man an he has to do this shit on his own.  Maybe im wrong but i dont think it is fair to put blame on dre an snoop unless we know tha whole story.  an if im wrong than im wrong,  no big deal.
