Title: King T finally adds missing detail for why Thy Kingdom Come never came out in 98
Post by: TraceOneInfinite on October 28, 2024, 04:17:03 AM: We all know that Dre often shelves albums, that part we know already. But what we didn't know is that we still should've gotten Thy Kingdom Come album over at Ruthless Records--which would have been great for West Coast hip-hop in 1998. It's a damn shame. King T said he asked to leave Death Row and he had a situation over at Ruthless to release the album and Dre wasn't really going to block anything, but Ruthless like fell apart before they could release it.

yeah, as I've said before it literally said in the Source Ad - IN STORES NOW.

...but that's life with Dr. Dre. Always the possibility you will get shelved. It is weird though. Cause you are like "yay, this is so great I'm working with Dre... oh shit, yeah, but it will never come out"
