master p wasn't regional tho. but half of the artists that youre bigging up - those guys were indeed regional.

and the ones that were national, weren't hot enough to move the needle for the south.

so you tell me who REALLY has the classics.:sas1:
i stay arguing this point on this forum...nikkas love callin some shyt from the south that did 3 mil, regional

meanwhile some shyt from New York that barely went gold when it dropped is a hip hop classic you cant dare speak ill on :martin:

They'll never let a guy like P back in the game. Dude spit so much game on ghetto d and true to the game. Exposed jews selling brothers off for 15% contracts. Going off on slick willie and his fukkery.

Nobody at first tried to accuse p of fukking them over. All artists got a bankroll, house and car in their name off top. Magnolia Slim and BBTP is the only one others I can think. P i think gave slim 300k straight outta prison. I don't believe they knew the album would go gold. shyt baby and slim make you appreciate dude even more.

yup KLC, Mo B dikk and Soulja Slim were the only former NL artists complaining bout money, you ain't never heard anyone else yappin' about not getting their due

P was handling business right and treating his artists/employees correctly. he told them upfront what they get and didn't BS them like Puffy, Baby/Slim etc

:ohhh:




Yooooooo. ..


Now that I think about it... I've never heard that . The only person that I vaguely remember who might have had an issue that went public was Mystikal. And I might be mistaken on that.

Mystikal wanted out for mostly non monetary reasons. CMR was rising while nl was sinking and taking their fan base. Plus mystikal and klc are real tight so again it was some principle involved.

He bought the album right out the gate. "U can get 200k for this"....whether the album 500 or a million copies, thats all they got. But it wasn't no surprise or slick shyt because u knew what it was off the top"

#facts and this is why i ride on them haters every chance i get.
nikka from the south (or west) has a well received album that does numbers
*ny hater* "that's a regional classic"
Album from ny goes gold (or takes forever to go plat) "that's a classic"

Dumbass, the B-level (Fiend, Mac, Mia X, Kane & Abel...) and C-level guys (Ghetto Commission, Full Blooded, Steady Mobb'n...) rarely sold over 500k. P, Snoop, Silkk, C-Murder, Mystikal and compilation/group albums (TRU, soundtracks, Westcoast Badd Boyz II...) went gold and (multi)platinum and made tons of dinero. Why you think C, Snoop and Mystikal were able to launch their own labels (TRU, Dogghouse, Bog Truck)?

Why yall southern cats always wanna turn shyt into a south vs easy coast thing? Can't just give props @shopthatwrecks

I'm sure that Diddy has more profitable businesses still standing today if ya wanna.go that route. P might have been brilliant in.one regard but he wasn't paying his producers and artists right which led to the collapse of his empire. You can't just talk about the good points.

In the end his business crashed and burned just like Dame. P movies, shoes, clothes, phones was all a failure in the long run and burned his money up. Tell he whole story. Him and Dame ain't that different in the end.
This nikka aggy like he defending his boyfriend

:dwillhuh:
I thought he was saying rappers on other labels were selling triple plat and not making 300k. He was giving credit to P.
