Obviously everyone has noticed that if somebody is signed to Aftermath Records, they are not going to release an album (Rakim, Hittman, Eve (the first time))....I've heard that this mainly has to do with Jimmy Iovine and not Dre. Maybe that's why artists are being signed under Shady and G-Unit....doesn't that still go through interscope though? I have wondered from the beginning why The Game was signed to G-Unit and not Aftermath exclusively. I understand this is the way to get an album released, but why? It's not really being released on "Aftermath".
-
na truth came out when noone expected her to...............game was on aftermath before g-unit.......n while his known through g-unit.........his aftermath also, only nigga gettin laced by dre from all g-unit cats apart from 50 ofcourse
aftermath will release busta still.........he aint connected with g-unit or shady.......they got eminem
basically whether they part of another label or not also..........if its aftermath on it to, thats the big name.......
dre
em
50
game
busta
eve
stat.......
em,50,game,busta are all comin out, hopefully eve duz and we'll see wat happens with stat though it'd be sick fi they all dropped..........though dre the main cd
pz!
-
but i do agree that alot of these niggaz is done through joint ventures n shit
-
well iovine is the owner of aftermath so of coure,he's the one taking the decisions
and domination said game got kicked off aftermath,i don't know how true it is...
-
I will bet you that Busta Rhymes and Eve never drops......the only way either of those albums will drop, is if it's a joint effort with another company. I guarantee.
-
haha i dunno dawg, im pretty sure busta will drop fo sure.......he'll come along with his flipmode squad but that aint shit.....he'll get released. he already has a name.........he'll be released
-

I'll believe it when I see it 8)

yeah that cracka j is on point. most artist who sign to Aftermath end up gettin shelfed (Rakim). and artist who sign to Shady dont sell that much (Obie Trice). thats why the artist they see as money makers get sub-labled like 50, Stat Quo, and Game. Game was silent for a cool minute till that G-Unit/Aftermath deal kicked in.
-
True, but I don't think Stat can move units the way The Game will. Stat will be like... the next Obie. That whole Shady Records label is garbage anyway if you ask me.
-
its gonna be a big year for aftermath shady and gunit 8) 8) 8)
-
Yeah, a big year. Buck behind bars, Eminem dropping garbage, nothing heard from the Stat in a while, same goes for the newer G-Unit cats. The lull before the storm? I don't know, don't think so. They just need Game, 50 and Dre to blow up again, which is pretty likely anyway.

They like saying "2005" when the actual release dates are more specific (for example, Green Lantern coming in MARCH). Happens all the time at aftermathmusic.com
-
wasn't D-Tay kicked off G-Unit for gettin his chain snatched? I thought I heard 50 say that recently.
also, Busta's album was originally supposed to drop in September, but was obviously pushed back
-
50 Cent's new album, St. Valentine's Day Massacre, originally slated for release the day after the dateless masses' least favorite holiday, is now set to drop on March 8. Reason: The Game's "The Documentary"!
-
PHAROAHE MONCH "tba"
u sure pharoahe monch is on aftermath deicato?
have u had other sources other than that radio interview where he said "he was in the process" of inking, probably with the math.
it's a strange move since most of the rawkus crew moved to geffen.
-
he woz gonna sign wit shady

Glad to hear that...it'll give Game some more space & opportunity to sell more.
-
It is mostly Iovine who is responsible for all these artists not droppin. Personally I don't give a fuck if Eve, Busta, Stat and Antonio never drop. All I want is a good flow of Eminem, 50 and DETOX.
-
EVE "tba" (SUMMER 2005)
STAT QUO "STATLANTA" (SUMMER 2005)
DR. DRE "DETOX" (FALL 2005)
BUSTA RHYMES "THE BIG BANG" (2005)
DJ GREEN LANTERN "ARMAGEDDON" (2005)
OBIE TRICE "tba" (2005)
TONY YAYO "tba" (2005)
heh, only 2 of those will drop at most
-
busta and green lantern are very likely to drop in 2005, one day there will be a dre record, eve might as well drop and same goes for stat quo. i don't expect anything from obie and yayo yet, but it looks like it'll be more than 2 records getting released of that list you mentioned.
-
obies underrated. personally I think he is one of the strongest in the shady camp.
