Title: lol @ diddy holding his 3 best artists hostage
Post by: smartass on July 22, 2004, 10:43:04 AM
hes got craig mack(the 2nd best mc ever on badboy), g-dep(good lyricist), and black rob(good storyteller), all of which who released dope debut albums, and yet he decides to release shit like da band, and mario winans coming up? what is this idiot thinking? if you're going to make artists on your label a priority, at least do it with an act that will sell some records. if not, let the actual talented ones on your label shine. deps new mixtape is fire. its a shame that they are all held on the back burner for some garbage.

I agree wit ya...
Maybe he's just more into the new artists and want to help them, and the experienced artists have to find out more at their own?

He's smart.

Winans and Da Band have sold records, simple as.

Black Rob is the only one I care about there.  He's the best they have and it's been four plus years since his album was released.
G Dep I just don't care for and Craig Mack has never been good.

All comes down to money... and I fully realize P. Diddy knows how to make 100 times the money I'll ever see in my life... so I'll leave money decisons to him, he's much better @ it.  From a fan standpoint, maybe you wanna see other albums come out first, but don't kid yourself into thinking Diddy doesn't know what's going to make the most money.

Actually, that analogy is incorrect.  It should be something like

"Have a prop, even though it's like pissin' on the sun"

See, if I were to give YOU a prop, then I could correctly say

"Have a prop, even though it's like pissin' in the ocean"

^ well, honestly hell I doubt even that.  It's probably like 1000 times the money.  The man knows his finances.
