Post by: GATMAN on June 06, 2008, 05:20:34 AM
Rumor
Obie Trice might be heading over to Koch Records, rumor has it that he is already over at the independent label.

i hope not cause obies dope on aftermath. If he could keep his links with shady/aftermath and go to koch then i wouldnt mind. But i wanna hear more Obie & Em tracks, as well as Dre produced Obie tracks.

Yeah.  It's not like he's going to release anything on Shady any time soon.

Actually he's lookin at either Bad Boy or Koch... and it's true, he never been Aftermath like a lot of people think, just Shady/Interscope. Real fans will buy his music regardless of what label he's under... I know I will.

Yeah I meant that he isn't off the label, he's just looking right now. I think the problem is that Shady only releases Eminem albums. He's the kinda person that could release a quality album every other year... not waiting three or four in between each one. I think that's why he wants to go somewhere else. The chemistry between Em and Obie is definitely there, but they just don't put albums out fast enough for him.

i see. Well they did put out 2 obie albums and 2 d12 albums, not bad...if obie didnt flop on the 2nd cd, he wouldnt have had 2 wait so long (damn shame because that flop wasnt his fault at all, he got screwed over with "snitch" getting banned).

^^ Well they did release those 4 other albums besides Eminem's, but they don't do it often enough. Obie is lyrical as fuck and way underrated, both his albums are multi platinum quality. And real talk, I don't think Bad Boy would be any better for him... but who knows, we could be wrong.

^yea bad boy wud be worse imo cause they'd make em dumb down his shit 2 the level of young joc, gorilla zoe, etc.

I don't think Obie is one to compromise his lyrics just to get radio play or commercial success. That's why he'll probably end up going to Koch or a different indie label.

True but I don't think it would be that bad of a move to go to Bad Boy.  Diddy would probably get him on a bunch of singles and build his buzz back up.  Then have him make a catchy song like "Got Some Teeth".  Besides the lack of promotion, that was one of the problems on his 2nd album.  It didn't have a good single.  Plus, it sounded like that album wasn't mixed properly.
