Is this 100% legit or just speculation? When did her Ruff Ryders contract let up?

Damn, this is fucked up news...Eve is tight and all, but theres so much talent on the west coast, I dont understand why Dre is fucking with only the east.  If the west wants to blow up again, Its got to start from the Top with Dre.  Snoop is kinda doing his part and so is Suge with Tha Row but Dre, I guess that dude is strictly eastcoast nowadays.

I agree that Dre needs to start signing some west coast artists cause this is getting ridiculous. I know it's about talent and it doesn't really matter where the fuck the artist is from but I find it hard to believe that Dre can't find anyone great in the west. On the other hand I am glad Eve is off the ruff ryder bull shit cause besides her they were all wack.

yo what ever happend to Dre only fukin with new acts?  wasn't that the whole thing why Kurupt wouldn't go to aftermath? was becuase Dre only wanted new acts.  up and coming.  the same thing was for Daz too when he was lookin for a label.  wasn't it?  

Eve is great an all.  don't get me wrong.  but this deal with aftermath means another thing.  that there is gonna be ANOTHER eastcoast act on DETOX. you can best belive that eve will be on detox.  and this makes less room for our westcoast G'z to be on it. this sucks.

Wasnt Eve the Aftermath first Lady? so I dont see whats wrong with that  and by the way the only west coast artist is Dre so Aftermath is not a Westcoast label

I reckon dre's lost the love for the west and just about
money. Cause the only rap that is sellin' is eastcoast at
the moment, just take a look at snoop's last album it
struggled to sell big and snoop is the west biggest player.

i think dre kinda wants to own the rap game , maybe part of his plan for the up and coming artists is to get them hooked up with some OG's in the game to help promotion, once he builds his army the rest will come.

Why are y'all hatin on Dre maybe he just cant find the westcoast talent he needs and all of y'all know that EvE sounds dope as a muthaphukka on a dre beat (Satisfaction, Let Me Blo Ya Mind) and
i never remember dre sayin he is only signing West Coast Artists???????????????????????
Dre is in the music business for the talent he has all the dopeness a record label needs,
Eminem
50 Cent
Ice Cube
Rakim
Eve
Brooklyn
Joe Beast
Truth Hurts
Shaunta

Aftermath is without a doubt the biggest label in Rap music to day and you gotta almost guarentee that every artist on the label droppin an album will go Platinum at least. And snoop is the nigga who is puttin muthaphukkin east coast kats on his albums too lets face it, the rap game aint about East/West no more its about making tight ass music!!!!!!!!!!!

What Y'all think???????

Who cares where she's from?  Dre doesn't owe shit to the westcoast.  If anything the westcoast owes him.

Title: Re:Dre just signed Eve
Post by: LyRiCaL_G on April 03, 2003, 01:43:24 PM
dope news, shes a dope cat who makes good music, and i think dre  reallys digs her and has beleif in her and him making good music together, and one of the main things with dre is, ya need his support if ya gone be on his label and i think eve will have that.

but i wanna see some proof of this..........what did dre say? any other news like on rakim or anything?

peace

didnt eve recently say .....that dre would be all over her next album.... i guess she tried to hint at us and seems like its true...
Title: Re:Dre just signed Eve
Post by: Hydro on April 03, 2003, 03:56:15 PM
In my opinion, I think that Dre should have signed DJ Quik! I think that Quik deserves the exposure & I think that Dre & Quik would make a good team. Quik is from the West & he was looking for a new label & Dre should have took advantage of that & signed him. Just my opinion. ;D

Eve is dope, why ya'll hatin' ? Dre signs who he thinks is dope, end of story

The Ruff Ryders imprint was probably swallowed up by it's parent company Interscope years ago.  They are basically just a logo now.  Aftermath's parent company is Interscope, so it was an easy business move to make.

WTF...this is bullshit...dre needs to get the cumb out of his ears...  he dropped hittman, truth, king t,...and wait he even dropped eve a few years back...she's way overrated....come on dre...give us rakim...thats what everyone wants...or even a new talent(joe beast?)...more waisted dope dre tracks on a wack artist
Title: Re:Dre just signed Eve
Post by: Jome on April 03, 2003, 07:14:07 PM
I would rather see Aftermath dropping Rakim, new Cube, Detox before signing Eve..  :(
And sign Xzibit or some other top cat..
I'm getting tired of Eve, even if she's one of the best female rappers.

Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on April 03, 2003, 10:42:39 PM
Yea...Dre's a pussy...He doesn't wanna release Hittman, Rakim, King-T, shit even Ice Cube, cuz he knows it wont sell...He tries eating off his artists...He knows Eve is a big name, so that's another for sure platinum album under Aftermaths table...When Eve wasn't big, he dropped her, because he wasn't sure if she could sell or not...Nowadays, Dre doesn't have what it takes to make his artists sell (Truth Hurts for example)...He takes artists that are already big, or already have a hype around them, and releases their album...That's why people like Hittman, King T, Rakim etc. never drop...Whatever though...I gave up on Dre a long time ago...PeACe
