well im assuming as i dont have concrete evidence as such but if you notice dame and biggs always signing artists, back when the roc was in effect u never noticed jay signing any1. he may have advised on a few, but dame always used to handle the business part.freshprince said:Just out of curiosity, and this is a genuine question. How do you know how involved or not Jay was in things like that at the Roc? I mean, really, unless any of us were employed there, are good friends w/ any of those involved, none of us here have a clue really as to who did what, when, where and so forth.
I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just asking for your support.
suge didnt do it alone, suge was on interscope :thumb:freshprince said:Nah...I disagree. First of all, if Suge did it independently, why can't 50? It's not like 50's strapped for cash, I mean, Jesus, dude has a house that's 78,000 square feet. Do you understand how big that house is? It's like being in a fucking modern day castle. He even has his own nightclub IN HIS HOUSE. Yes...he has his own nightclub in his house. But, I think 50 getting to do this has more to do with his allegance with Eminem.
freshprince said:Well, you don't paraphrase and quote it like the person actually said it. If you're a journalist and you do that...you get fired.
Wow. "shut up". You're just so friendly dude. Again, what did I do to you to be spoken to so rudely?
So, who am I?

you are jason g and i already said that in the "i am going to an em concert" thread.![]()
To answer to the thread.
As a buiseness man he could be up there with jay and em if he plays his cards right which he seems to be doing.
roaches said:Please. He's already surpassed them.
Shady:
50 Cent - superstar, but the only role Eminem plays in that is the logo on the singles
D12 - Eminem's sidekicks
Obie Trice - shipped platinum, every single flopped
Pharoahe Monch - went from "Agent Orange" to "Fish Fillet" after signing with Shady
Stat Quo - has that good underground buzz going, but that's it
Young Zee - rolls D12's blunts, was probably signed to counteract Pacewon's criticism
Roc-a-fella:
Memphis Bleek - flops every time, just flopped again
Sauce Money - wrote "I'll Be Missing You" for Puffy, disappeared
Amil - was dropped, with a coat hanger as a consolation prize
Beanie Sigel - hot albums, but has he ever sold more than 700k?
Freeway - great album, but did he even go gold?
State Property - hot singles, dope albums, don't move units
Kanye West - closing in on 3x platinum, but he did all the work himself
M.O.P. - have to drop indy albums under pseudonyms just to keep their name out there
50 Cent:
Lloyd Banks - multiplatinum, hit singles
Young Buck - multiplatinum, strong singles (no real hits, though)
The Game - multiplatinum (and let's be honest, 50 played a big role)
G-Unit as a group - multiplatinum

freshprince said:True Encore was a HUGE FUCKING DISAPPOINTMENT, but I'd hardly say that constitutes Em as "sucking". I don't think every album 2pac has dropped was golden but I'd hardly say he sucks because I don't like every album.
An artist doesn't suck because they release a bad album. They suck when they produce nothing but shit and can't sell anything. Eminem doesn't fit that category despite the sad offering that Encore was. I'm hoping his rumored 5th album "The Funeral" will be better.
As for 50, I'm white and I knew the moment 50 dropped he was complete shit. I remember seeing the video for "In Da Club" and for like 30 seconds I was like "ohh...who's this new 50 dude Eminem has signed?". Then, after hearing some songs from GRODT off the internet, I knew 50 is a piece of shit.
Now, the real funny part, is that when 50's doing guest appearance, that's when he REALLY SHINES.
For real, think about it. "Hate It Or Love It", "How We Do", "Never Enough", "We All Die One Day" are 4 songs where 50 ALMOST shows up the person whose album he's on.
Not one person in this group can tell me truthfully that 50 DIDN'T outshine Eminem on "Never Enough". True, Em's verse was twice as long as 50's, but 50's flow just killed that fucking beat. "Never Enough" probably contains one of 50's best verses ever, both in regards to flow and lyrically. Now, this only leaves one question. Did 50 write his own verse, or did Em write it?
But I do agree that in 2 years, 50 will be nothing. In 1997 when Master P was the big shit in town, I told everyone by 2000 he'd be nothing, and I was so fucking right.

He has talent but very over-rated

I was just playing too hahahahaha Ms. Cleo got nothing on my guessesfreshprince said:*laughing his ass off* I'm sorry, dogg, I can't even read that shit you wrote with a straight face, just too funny.
Dude, even the Eminem haters on this board acknowledge the Marshall Mathers LP as a classic. That says something in itself.
But, hey, hate on the dude, go ahead, he can take it, you ain't hurtin' his sales.
