We also have the "Greatest Hits" album coming out in May that we're preparing for, it's set up around the 20 year anniversary of Ruthless Records, it's coming out on Ruthless Records.

i know cold187 didn't say this, but i have a feeling that Ruthless records is coming with another compilation to celebrate the 20th anniversay  :-\


so it wasn't that far fetched at all.

anyway, no offense, but how is this the situation much different from 10 years ago? ok, there is distribution deal with a different company now.

it's a shame that it happened, but when Eazy died, the label pretty much died with him after Jerry left.

that dude hopsin
he got skills, ill give him that. i peeped his myspace, good story telling rap.
Im just hyped up about the ATL BoxSet.

Deathrow has a preety nice catalogue which has been repackaged and put out about 11 times over in cd reissues and compilations of the same shit over and over.

Ruthless records has just a good if not better catalogue which has preety much been untouched other then Bone Collection packages and Reissues of NWA material and a lil bit of Eazy E. Lets see what the black widow can pull.

Bone thugs are also dropping a new music video for Ruthless Records of the cd they just put out THUGS. The only reason they doing it, krayzie bone said "only for Eazy-E", no other reason.

Bones thugs still loyal and puttin it down for the lil big man eric wright after all these years.

There is another reason, Tomika promised that this was the last Bone album that they would put out. Maybe they got it in writing?

Lil Eazy should drop a album with Ruthless. What better way is there than have him drop a album with Ruthless?

omar cruz was on Ruthless back when he was known as Blunts LLA, and they never put out his album...hopefully this gets off the ground and they dont do these new rappers/singers like they did O. Cruz.

Not just Omar Cruz, but every artist who's ever been on the label. This means previously signed Chicano rappers such as Brownside, Slow Pain, A.L.T., Frost, Mister D and Sleepy Malo.

And also, Black Eyed Peas members will.i.am and apl.de.ap.

Glad to see thery're trying to get something going over at Ruthless.  But aside from the new acts, I hope they strongly consider rereleasing their back catalogue as well as putting out some collections of unreleased tracks from back in the day  Hopsin had some pretty cool soundin' stuff on his myspace page, but they need to remember a lot of the hardcore Ruthless fans are still dyin' to hear more of the old stuff.
