One of ESG’s hashtags is #ScrewedUpCurse

Not comparing the groups, but it’s crazy how many SUC affiliates are no longer here meanwhile pretty much everyone who was affiliated with Swishahouse is still alive.


SUC were the trendsetters because they were really authentic street dudes who just so happened to rap on the side between making plays & stints in jail. That's why SUC has that "it" factor.

Between street politics, legal and hard living, they've faded out like most street dudes sadly.

Swishahouse were always pretty much rappers first and properly focused on "the music business."

Just like how Screw shunned digital and CDs for analog and cassetes, Swishahouse embraced the digital and had a label. SUC created the template and Swishahouse learned from their mistakes and elevated it business-wise.

swishahouse had authentic street dudes too

Alvin jones by himself hit every money maker in the suc slab twice

N when he run cross em in jail or prison .. he look them nihgas in the eye n tell em everything bout their slabs n be like I got yo shyt .. had u runnin dine cavalcade

When they had car shows at the astrodome half of rosewood hit every slab unattended


Swishhouse were hustler first than rappers.. shyt Chamillionaire n Paul were the biggest squares .. yet lew hawk stayed hittin licks in trouble

Watts n ron c had the youth on their team because watts wasn’t stuck in 96 music wise

Screw was caught up in his ways and was slow as fukk

Screw could have lil Randy and big baby helpin him mix but if it ain’t screw

The house knew digital u can get all that shyt out especially havin two djs

Set the tempo chop n go vs chop then go back n slow it down then have to hunt for cassette

U right

Swishahouse was hungry they put the entire click album out while they were still alive


Screw didn’t see the vision cats like esg hawk was tryin to tell him

Watts n ron c knew n wasn’t afraid to hit the road n hit different cities with mixes vs waitin to grow legs a dub a dub a dub losin quality

When screw finally decided to flip ..over his health was deteriorating n the nikkas around em kept em fried n fukked up
