I see his album coming out in the end of 2006 if he is signed to Aftermath.  He will probably be to Detox what Snoop was to The Chronic and what Hittman was to 2001

i see 2 scenarios
1- he ghostwrites for dre most of detox promises to drop an album after detox waits for 3 years no album drops.. he bounces off the math...
2- they blow him up juss liek em, 50 and game...

I haven't heard much of his stuff, but I think he will be hot of Dre beats, just hope they drop his album soon or ever.

The tracks I heard from Bishop Lamont at Dubcnn were off the hook if you ask me, Put Your Glasses Up with Guerilla Black & New West Order were amazing! I think its great he's signed to Aftermath.

maybe he's a very good looking dude who got shot 46 times in the head but survived, so he got a lot of marketing potential... who knows?

lol  ;D

No worries, Dre will definately do Detox first, before starting on Bishop's album... It's nothing but good news imo!

Post by: Jip on March 27, 2005, 08:33:39 AM
dre said he would start detox before he signed 50cent, game and possibly more ppl but we're still waiting :{
Title: Re: Bishop Lamont signed to Aftermath
Post by: M Dogg™ on March 27, 2005, 09:15:26 AM
I ain't worried about a Dexot. That'll come when it comes.

My opinion, it's like anything else, it's how the artist promotes himself. The only artist I truly think got fucked over was Hittman. I think since he had a complete album, that Aftermath dropped the ball. And King Tee also. Others like Rakim it just didn't seem right. But I do see this all being on him. Eminem, 50 Cent and Game were all hungry and did what they had to do. Game may not be the most talented emcee in people's opinions, but he hustled and make a buzz for himself on mixtapes, working with people and studying the game, no pun intented. Same with 50. Hittman never created his own buzz, Aftermath tried to, and when Hittman never came out people were not tripping. The Oh My God deal, people did trip but because it was Rakim and Dr. Dre. No one knows Bishop Lamont, and his going to have to change that. It's up to him to see how it all goes.

Dre is bacc fuccin with the West, Big Ups to Bishop because Aftermath got a true star who is lyrically a monster, nice flow, can right songs and hooks. The West is steadily makin it's push bacc to the top where we belong.

i dunno if u were just messin, bt in his tracks he says he doesnt gang bang or he never sold crack, or been shot at...it kinda sounded like subliminal shots at 50.

SGV started it the moment the rumor started... lol

Signing to Aftermath equals being overrated. Getting dumped means you're too good... lol

It's true, Hittman had plenty of haters, now that his dumped, it's basically Hittman should have been released. Aftermath records is like the Lakers or the Yankees or the Cowboys, people hate them 'cause they are always on top.

he's gonna sell once his album gets releasd but thi shit will probably happen in 2006, coz he has to wait for Busta Rhymes, Eve prpbably Dr. Dre before he gets tha Green Light

Not to start anything at all, but on the radio drop, it sounded like he MIGHT have been takin a small shot at Game, but he did give Game props in an interview.
