with all the beef between the two factions, I'm wondering how long it'll be and who it'll be leaving. Dre has a huge decision to make, whether to stay true to his roots (Game/Blackwallstreet) or go where the money is (G-Unit). Regardless if G-Unit gets kicked off Aftermath, I don't think Iovine would want them to leave, since they are a cash cow.
-
well gunit isnt on aftermath is it?
i thought gunit is purely interscope and 50 is the one signed to aftermath and shady
could be wrong though
if gunit is aftermath then we'll see gunit go to interscope most likely cuz black wall street has one multi platnum artist and gunit has what like 3 of them with 50 having sold more than anyone else
-
Dre can't be happy with The Game for restarting this feud with G-Unit. I don't think Dre's too high on 50 or Game right now.
-
G-Unit without Dre's and Em's name & Interscope behind them = Shit
-
G-Unit ain't Aftermath...

The "fued" was started again when Yayo started talking & Banks telling the ppl at his concerts not to buy his album
-
G-Unit ain't Aftermath...
I know, but they are still affilated with Dre.

only cuz 50 but I think he's ready to leave Aftermath (thank god)
-
yup i think 50 will leave the math b4 dre or Em have anything to say.
-
50 said he would leave Aftermath and sign to Shady/G-Unit if Dre didn't get behind him on the beef
-
^^ em will have none of that...if he's off aftermath, he's off shady!! cant see em not having dre's back
peace
-
50 cents career will downfall if he leaves aftermath/shady for sure
-
basically this is correct information
1. 50 is singed to shady/aftermath
2. Gunit record label is signed to universail
3. blackwallstreet isnt signed and is notwiht aftermath
so all in all this thread should be closed caus eneither label belongs to aftermath or interscope so the topic should be closed.
-
it's more like..
how soon before The Game or 50 Cent get kicked off Aftermath?
-
Both will be kicked of Aftermath
Game and Black Wallstreet will probably be signed by Suge Knight
50 Cent will probably take over Koch, since he's allready acting as Koch by signing Mobb Deep and MOP
-
I couldn't see BWS signing with Suge. As much as I don't like Game and them, they don't seem retarded. Just like I said about 50, Game without Dre and Interscope behind him = Shit. It would be even harder for Game to sell if he got dropped cause he is still a pretty new artists. At least G-Unit is established.
-
If you listen to all of 300 Bars it seems like Aftermath/Dre have Game's back, as he mentions how he's strictly 'Aftermath' now. I think its far more likely that 50 will do as he said: release a double album fulfilling his contractual obligations with Shady/Aftermath and continue on in his career as a Shady/G-Unit artist.
In response to Bomb-A's post, remember it was Em who ''discovered'' 50 and made the decision to sign him - not Dr. Dre. He's a grown man and shouldn't have to relinquish such a powerful artist just to please Dre. Em has said before that Dre gave him his business mind: it would be a dumb business move for Shady to drop 50 Cent, regardless of how unpopular he is with 'real' rap fans, as he still sells millions. Em and 50 are friends, and its not like you see Dre complaining when they tour together without Game.
EDIT: Dre can't be THAT concerned with all this feuding with going on. I'm almost certain that if he had threatened to drop Game for all of this drama, we wouldn't have heard ''300 Bars'' and this beef would have (publically at least) have been buried. Of the two, I think its Game that cannot afford to be dropped by Dre. As someone noted, 50/G-Unit are already established acts - Game is still relatively new.
-
Game without Dre and Interscope behind him = Shit.
I like the shit Game's done with JT.
-
Aint no way interscope will let 50 go without a fight, 50cent/G-unit is hip hop 1st major franchise that nigga got his own video coming out a guest spot on the simpsons and shit like that, commercially 50s a monster
-
why would Interscope drop any of the artists involved? we all know that beef=more record sales which=more money for Intescope. if that would´ve been a problem they would´ve dropped Jada a long time ago.

well 50's re-reliasing The Massacre & his contract is a 4 album deal that would be his 3rd & if he counts his movie sdt then he's done
-

the soundtrack is coming out on G-Unit records and i don´t think the Massacre re-release will be counted as an actual album i think it will be counted as a dvd. if dvd´s would count 50 would be off after the re-release coz The New Breed came out on Shady/Aftermath.

as someone pointed out, Eminem signed 50. Think it was in XXL that initially Dre had zero interest in signing 50 cent until Eminem convinced him
-
Yeah Eminem said that on the radio too he said that when he talked to Dre about signing 50 he said Dre already heard 50's music. So basically if Dre already new about 50 and didn't sign him before he just signed him because of Em
-

Yup. When ''Get Rich Or Die Tryin'' was about to drop all three (Dre, Em, and 50) did an interview where Em said something along the lines of ''I take all the credit for signing 50'' and Dre replied ''you should do'' so it was Eminem's decision and Dre has acknowledged this.
-
i think 50 will leave aftermath and go to shady thats why he is redoing his last cd to count a another one
-
50 and game are making millions for them..........y would mu drop people dat r making u millions?

Yeah but Game getting dropped Shady/Aftermath wouldnt stop Iovine from signing him directly to Interscope.
-
Beef = Buzz = Sales
People will buy their albums just to see what each guy has to say.
-
If Game did get dropped, mad labels would compete for him. He wouldn't have the Iovine machine, but he would do all right.
