Deathrow will always live on hopefully with some news and some releases.Yes but not enough to invest money on these albums that only a handful of people are asking for. They'd never break even on the money they spend on a project like LBC Crew or Top Dogg. LBC crew should not even be mentioned in the same line as Top Dogg. Of Course they shouldn't put money into that shit.It's all about marketing and collectability with non mainstream stuff these days. They could do a series of numbered releases with special art slipcases and booklets (for example)Death Row Classics series#1 The Chronic: Special Edition#2 Dogg Food: Deluxe Edition#4 The Chronic Tour 2 Disk DVD Edition#5 Snoop Doggy Dogg: Demos & Unreleased Vol 1#6 LBC Crew: Haven't You Heard (wBonus CD)#7 Kurupt The Kingpin: The Lost TapesCollectors go mad for numbered, limited shit and once you establish the brand you drop in the obscure stuff. They could even do a Magazine series with a CD on the cover each month. There's $$$ in the brand no doubt.Lol nobody's buying those. Look what happened to wide awake trying to release these unreleased projects. They're better off just selling them in iTunes

Count how many times The Chronic has been rereleased everybody already has it! It's like a Thriller rerelease.
Quote from: Jimmy H. on December 07, 2013, 02:52:05 PMWell, truthfully, the unreleased catalog probably isn't worth the troubles.True but if they reissued Doggystyle in a digipak with genuine session leftovers, notes and a DVD and limited pressing vinyl, theres a good chance it would top the charts. And at the same time do the t-shirt range, posters and shit. Thats what E1 about as I understand it
Well, truthfully, the unreleased catalog probably isn't worth the troubles.
On the real though, how many people outside of dubcc want to hear sum unreleased death row stuf

Count how many times The Chronic has been rereleased everybody already has it! It's like a Thriller rerelease. Special Edition means NEW stuff. It would sell
Lol there's no way it would top the charts. They need to do some stuff like getondown.com e.g. http://www.getondown.com/album.php?id=15669. Make 100-500 copies and sell them that way, mass producing the stuff isn't going to work because the demand isn't there. 91-96 was a long time ago, and the majority of cats who listened to gangster rap back then have probably grown up and moved on.
LOL @ 'dubcc aint the world'You're telling me aside from a few people on here, no one in the real world remembers the Chronic? Jimi Hendrix had a no 2 album this year. I guess you're telling me they made a loss on that too

Jimi Hendrix had a no 2 album this year. I guess you're telling me they made a loss on that tooWth are you talking about? Are you mentally ill or something?What i clearly meant is that dubcc doesnt necessarely represent what the demand for it is like out in the real world, based on a few of you in here saying that you "know many people who'd be interest in it". Also, most people interested in The Chronic already have it, it has been re-released before & they might fuck with it from time to time but they aren't into it as much as this niche here.Smh, comparing Jimmy Hendrix with a Chronic album - extremely bad analogy. I was discussing in a business sense. First off, Jimmy Hendrix is dead. The hype that has surrounded that name based on that will always add extra fanbase, ala 2pac, Biggie material. Jimmy Hendrix is not a rapper. His fanbase would definitely be more wider & for a market a little bit older & possibily more financially stable. It's also 2 different genres were talking about here. Then you have an album that has already been re-released. We were clearly, or so i thought, talking about if they re-released it again (!) & how well it would do.So it has nothing to do with people not liking The Chronic as an album but we're talking business here. You're letting your little small dubcc world & your own want for it cloud your mind into believing it would be a profitable investment for any investors if they decided to put alot of stocks in. They would not get a big return, which was my point.
