I bet if I gave a quote, took out all the actual and spaces and harsh realities and posted it some of you same people would say it's not that far fetched.

I mean who looks at Ross as some kind of entrepreneur/executive.

He wasn't even smart enough to steer his own career (that CO shyt) without just going all out and betting that the music overcame all.

idk but when i look at the g-unit situation, it seemed like everybody was UNDER 50, and with MMG, it seems like everybody is really riding side by side, if u understand what im saying..

and that may not have even been 50's intentions, but for whatever reason, thats how it appeared, and i think game & buck may have felt like that too

yup, they're all part of a crew. instead of worshiping the nikka, they riding with him while being independently strong. although i wonder how stalley's grind is. we'll see.

I'm not even sure what 50 is even saying there...as far as what's supposed to make mmg different from g-unit and young money....his point isn't really clear...if it's that the parent label funneled an artist ross' way to stand next to him and get hot in regards to pill, aftermath/interscope did the same exact with game and tossing to 50 to be rebranded under g unit...but like with 50, that's not the case with all the acts...Ross is seeking these guys out and signing them

Ross just had a number 1 album and mmg is doing pretty well, I would say the dude is doing pretty well for himself

Nobody saying he is baby or percy miller but to suggest he isn't smart enough to steer his own career is nonsense.

50 Cent is trash

What is new? I mean, if 50 defeated Ross back in 09, then why is he still talking about him in 2012? Ross is on top of the game now and people need to accept that he is bringing back talent to the game (Meek Millz, Stally, Wale).

does it matter to have 200,000 people checking for you anywhere is an accomplishment. Most of the top 10 hottest right now cant do that shyt and most of the nikkas yall stan on here cant do that shyt so stop flexxin

Dawg if you can pull 200k in another country but not in your own there's a problem. Them nikkas probably think 50 is still relevant over here or they stuck in 2003 or something.

I said he makes good music for what the masses want or whatever, I didn't deny that

But Nas just made a better album and people routinely talk about how he didn't steer his career the best, so musical ability and executive skills aren't the same thing

I stand by my initial comment though...he made an ass of himself with that CO situation and only made it through because he just hit people over the head with music they liked..if AA or Teflon Don was just above average like his stuff in the past he wouldn't have weathered it as well..

I work at philips arena and wayne, ross and nikki had a concert and barely was able 2 fill 20,000 together.

And just cuz these flip flopin ass "fans" in the us who swear everybody fell off after they release one song they dont like dont like bruh music dont mean that its not people who dont. Remember the world is alot bigger than the us
