_______________________
1. Before I Self Destruct - 50 cent

^^^yea he does, he needs to replace 50's dumbass
im hoping we wil c the future of aftermath deatured on detox
I don't know if you where an mc would u go with Busta Rhymes or go with Dre
fuck i wud def go wit Dre, to spit on a track produced by dat nigga wud be a fuckin dream...
yea but no one would ever hear your shit
damn seems like aftermath is havign some issues but i think dre is gonna come up with something....hopefully too many artist dropped or being on the shelf ya know.
I KNEW IT WOULD HAPPEN SOON......BUSTA USE TO DROPPING ALBUMS EVERY YEAR.JIMMY NOT HAVIN IT
I fux with Dr. Dre hardbody, ain’t no Producer alive that touch dudes body of work, money can give you that mainstream pop-bubble ish with a street edge to it Look at that EVE joint with Gwen Stephan, or that Mary J joint ft Eve ‘Not today’...damn the beat is bananas. But let Dre still can give you that Gully ish, Gin & Juice, Dre Day etc….ok now with all that said,…Dr. Dre is a bad record exec,…sorry I said it.
Like I said I fux with dude hardbody, but he needs to get his priority in order, how many artists are gona just walk away from his Label?
Here’s a list of Mc Dre had in his stable;
• Busta Rhymes : duke gave him the Big Bang shit was fi-ya,…now he’s getting shit on
• Joell Ortiz : This shit is crazy, how can he let him walk away? He the nicest ish since microwave popcorn
• Eve : I wont blame this on Dre, she was the shit back when she had short blond hair (tru strory), the min she grew her shit, so did her attitude, bitch went Hollywood,…so there, Dre dropped her. I hope he at least tapped that, cuz that’s mad disappointing if he just let her walk away with his advance money
• Raekwon : OH Lord, this was where ‘only built 4 Cuban lynx II’ was gona come from, Dre & Rza banging out to unearthly beats,…Sad Dre, Sad Raekwon could have knock this out the park.
• The Game : The Fuck he did dude dirty for? Wow Game is even from his old hood, the dude drops his name in every fucken 16, he even named his 2nd album in your honor,..Damn Dre, you a dirty nigga
• Rakim: The god, wow this I wont even touch this, it’s like the packers shitin on Bret Favre,…wow Dre you fucked up.
• Truth Hurts; c’mon the bitch was desent had a big hit with Rakim on it, DJ quick,…hell I even copped the album it was fiya.
• Hittman : This is the main reason Detox been on hold, This guys was the next big thing, he wrote plenty on Dre last album, made more ft then any other artist on 2001,…
^^^so tru. and busta's shit aint even gonna sell really. half his shit leaked, and with the new songs he adds, he doesn't have the hype. dec is toooooooooooooo overcrowded w/ releases
My nigga jay-z trying to knock off 50 cent off the forbe 1st place award , i c wat he doing, but real talk he need to help out dame dash n start the ROC up again, busta Rhymes doing his thang
i dont lyk to say it but fuck dame, they aint neva gonna come bak especially under the circumstances that dame is in. anywayz much luv 4 da Jiggaman..
DUDE HOW MANY TIMES WE HAVE TO TELL YO DUMB 50 CENT DICKRIDING ASS JAY Z IS RICHER THAN 50 FOR 800 MILLION TYM
GOD DAMN LISTEN AGAIN FIFTY ONLI MADE MORE THAN JAY Z THIS YEAR U GET IT NIGGA ONE YEAR ONE DAMN YEAR THE AMOUNT THAT FIFTY MADE THIS YEAR WAS NOT ENOUGH FOR HIM TO PASS JAY Z ASS THE RICHEST RAPPER U DICK HEAD DO UR RESEARCH FIF CLOSE BUT HES NOT RICHER SO STOP SAYING DAT DUMB SHYT DICK HEAD DAMN RESPECT TO BOTH OF EM WHO
CARES WHO RICH HOV NEED TO BRING THE ROC BACK KUZ I WAS LISTENING THE DYNASTY ROC LA FAMILIA AND GOD DAMN MAN DAT SHYT WAS DOPE ESPECIALLY MEMPHIS BLEEK HE STR8 MURDERED EVERYTRACK HE WAS ON DATS REAL TALK ESPECIALLY 1 900 HUSTLER NIGGAS NEED TO GET BACK ON THEY ISH
Good, I want 2 hear that new Busta already.
R you guys stupid...I can't believe what I am hearing. AFTERMATH don't need anyone except EMINEM. Thats it. No one other then 50 really made that big of an impact anyway. As soon as Eminem drop, millions will come flying through the door and it doesn't matter what he release cause its going to be sic. Yes he my fav rapper but that not why I'm saying this. Im just letting it be known that niggas really is not in any kind of drought. Come on people think before you post on here. HOVA coming out this YEAR... DAMN ANOTHER CLASSIC. GREATEST RAPPER EVER GOES TO J.A.Y-Z. Chamillitery with busta...VERy NICE.
Aftermath could drop albums likee..
STATLANTA!!! (jus fukin drop it!)
have no idea what ther waitin for the album was complete ages ago, damn Stat already workin on his Second album..can see why he's trying to sign to another record deal..ima be mad pissed tho if Stat scraps the songs feat. Em & Dre from the 'Statlanta' album tho
Bishop Lamont - The Reformation
he's a lyrical beast enough said..
LOOK OUT FOR DETOX!!!
KING MATHERS & LOOSE CANNON!!!
Once a 1st single for Detox drops, im literally gunna flipout. I'm so hyped for that shit. It better be hot if its gunna take this long to drop. Even if eminems single drops, im gunna be madd excited that someones finally droppin some shit. Lets watch Eminem come back and shit on everyone. And lets watch Dre come back and make musical history.
the chance of detox coming out is the same as scientists finding a cure for aids.....NEVER!!!!
aftermath fell off once they dropped game, i'm not a game dick rider at all but once he walked away, they lossed their heat besides joell ortiz
y r u ppl actin lyk dre needs new artists or his labels gonna fail? Arent u ppl forgettin hes rich alreadyand so's the label? He could jus release detox and call it a wrap.
But What is dre's worth? i'm sure he has Wealth But is it enough To Call it a wrap after detox?
^ check forbes he still top 10 richest rappers and Detox prolly wil;l push him up a lot aswell as king mathers and before i self destruct
Dr. Dre kinda trippin wit lettin go all his artists. Good look for Bust tho...Jay-Z still doin it big, jus addin cash and makin investments...Learn it.
ReDef.
That's good Busta moving on.......he was wit Dre for a while.......but he should've started his own label! Dre always finds new artist with swag and flow......50 & Em was both history in the making! Big shoutz to Aftermath & RIP to Lil Dre! Hova at this point can do what he wants his moves are those of a BUSINESSMAN!
what's up with raekwon? his shit is supposed to be on aftermath. and you know that shit will blow doors.
that nigga jigga
busta sucks
if all these niggas keep walkin out on aftermath dre gonna see the same outcome that death row had. maybe if they would promote their artists albums and actually release them and not puch them back they wouldnt keep signin new deals with other companies. im a huge dre and eminem fan but dre cant run a label he fucked up death row and he bout to fuck up aftermath unles he get these albums out especially his own, eminems album, and he shouldve really pushed for joell ortiz album and raekwons cuban lynx 2 they both would be classics.
damn jay dont do it all baby
im jus wonderin y they callin it "StarRoc" and not the more obvious (nd more fluent) "RocStar"
