Title: INTERSCOPE
Post by: GATMAN on August 05, 2008, 01:20:46 PM



BUSTA RHYMES FINDS NEW HOME?



www.allhiphop.com


I missed it but I heard Busta Rhymes MURKED the set when he came on with A Tribe Called Quest at the NY Rock The Bells show. But, I heard something else. I heard that Busta Rhymes has been seen in the Universal Records building. My sources have suggested strongly that Bussa Bus is on his way to a new deal at the Viacom-owned company. YEAAAAAH. I was watching some crazy fake breakdance thing on the teen choice awards – whatever – but they were breaking to Busta’s record. SMH. I think he and Jimmy Iovine need to work it out.






Other than that, I heard that, I told you Interscope is going to be dropping a lot of artists. Remember I said it a long time ago. Obie Trice, Slim Thug, and some others are totally viable acts, but things didn’t go well up there. Look for more divorces soon. I’m hearing even the rap friends of the biggest names in rap aren’t safe these days.

busta is easily one of the most maketable artists out there and his raw style has always been popular without hardly any dumbing down. the fact that they couldn't get commercial success with his aftermath lp proves how much jimmy and dr. dre fucked that one up...

yeah but it's dre's fault too. it was his project (executive produced) and he didn't produce a smash single that would blow up for busta commercially...

so you're saying that it's partly his fault that the first 4 singles were not produced by him?

whaaat??

That cannot be true...I remember he sold off a big stake of his share of aftermath to interscope to make them the controlling share in the company but im sure dre still has a big part to play in the company. Im pretty sure he still owns 20% of aftermath. I could be wrong because dre and jimmy and aftermath did these deals so many years ago i cannot even remember but im pretty sure dre still owns part of aftermath.
