Sad that they never fully took off.That was in the spring of 2002. Sufficient media exposure (be it positive or negative), Crooked I's Sisqo featured So Damn Hood single, a fully lined up roster waiting to be heard, affiliations with people like Ray J, Jadakiss, Juvenile, Rap-A-Lot and Murder Inc and I think even Natina Reed (Blaque) was about to sign.If only DR had gotten a major distribution deal back then I think it could have been '94-'96 all over again.

honestly I dont think they were going to make any type of huge comeback, it was a dope roster but Death Row just had too much drama surrounding the company and was being poorly managed since about '96
