Cormega Responds To Steve Stoutes Interview

[infamousred]

production deals are complete garbage. i can only imagine how terrible mega's would've been considering he hadn't had an album out yet since the marley deal fell through.

 

[IllmaticDelta]

What's ur point tho?

Mega held p down when he was alive and always paid homage to P. Alive and dead. His mural getting violated is qb business. N he closer to the gangsters in qb than he is with P personally. It is what it is. Even after than he still show love to P.

Nas and mega had beef so they saying fucc each other. Nas kicked mega out the firm for not letting Stoute jerk him. They end up beefing. nikka who know him speak highly of him n not on some rap shyt. That's what I'm going off.

mega was in a car chilling watching P almost get his life snatched away and didn't do shyt

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

I love Mega' s music but look what happens, Nature another dude with no album or stats got to take his place because he DID sign the contract and it was prolly even worse than Mega's. Nights been the right decision OLD it coulda been a lifetime slave deal who knows

Nature got his own record deal after the firm. Clearly his own work ethic destroyed his career. No one on the firm was locked into a dead end the way Cormega was at Def jam.

For all seasons still dropped before Cormega Def jam debut that was shelved. Mega had to come out on landspeed records independent then finally got his shelved album back so many years later.

The difference is that Mega actually hustled harder than Nature who was in a better position to succeed. Took his career into his own hands.

Scarf hands

Him and LA Reid be on that juice

Then left with those nikkaz while they had son chainThe mega stans on here will make it seem like he didn't know shyt .Where's that Ty Nitty instagram post with Mike D. Mega Lakey in it?

Funny thing about all that shyt is that Lake ended up Snaking him. Tried to use him to shake down producers like Alchemist only to burn those bridges.

All that loyalty to those dudes over prodigy didn't pay off. Those dudes didn't like P yet they were using him for exposure. No one's hands are clean.

 

[AmenhotepIV]

Its like this. I dont agree with everything Stoute says but Mega been telling his side of the story and villianizing Nas for years. Now he dont like when the tables is turned. And with Nas it wasnt just a shout out. Nas put him on IWW. Nas was gonna put the nikka on with a group full of signed gold and platinum artists and an album exective produced by a legendary producer in Dr. Dre. With basically zero leverage. I dont care what nobody say. Nas gave that nikka a good fukkin look and even with his issues with Stoute(which whom he shouldve aimed most of his heat at anyway) he still refused to acknowledge how much of a good look Nas gave him.

So he supposed to sign his life, name and future power away...Nas needed a douljah and Mega wasnt having it

You still peddling this bullshyt story

Cut it out.

The fact that son never got another major look after Def jam is telling. Also the dude that replaced him never signed his name away and future power play so there is nothing to support this claim. It was Chris Lightly vs Stoute not Mega vs Nas. Nas was just the conduit. Mega rode with Chris and Violator and it didn't work out

Sun don't shine if Son don't shine

Nas has learned the game of throw stones and hide your hands

He is a great lyricist with a lot of questionable personal traits

Another thing is Chris Lighty was that dude ...he was a former Bouncer that with the help of Russell Simmons and Mona Scott

Had all the street cats from NY under his banner

You dont think Violator was a threat

Alot of people forget that Steve "Lord of the Scarfs" Stoute is a paper gangsta with loyalty only to a company ...any company

Cormega has at least two classic albums without beefs and the hottest producers chasing him

 

[IllmaticDelta]

Son that nikka let P get fukked up for no reason. Just sat back n let it happen. While P was tryna look out for nikkas and hold em down. Its like u nikkas let this nikka Mega drill how stand up he is in ur head for all these years. Let a nikka tell yall his side of the story for all these years. And noone elses side matters. Nas didnt kick him out The Firm. He chose not to sign. Which is fine. But he wasnt gonna get a great contract regardless considering what he brought to the table. Everyone in that group was a platinum/gold artist. He was the only one who had ZERO leverage. Yet he was gonna be in a supergroup working with Dr.Dre n shyt just off the strength of him being Nas’ man. Noone in that group was gonna stop moving cause he was unhappy with his contract. Thats unrealistic especially when noone owed him anything. It wasnt like it was some duo. Alot was on the line when it came to that group. shyt. Nore blew up as a solo artist off fhe strength of even BEING on that album and he directly credits Nas for that. That album was a good fukkin look and he could’ve renegotiated shyt. He even said recently that if he knew what he knew now he wouldve did shyt different when it came to that situation.

I don't fukking care if Christ was more gangster than Stoute that's a stupid ass argument for making business decisions. Mega went with Chris and got shelved.

All you doing is echoing everything a bitter Cormega said. You are not objective. You claim he was dodging a slave deal yet Nature who replaced him didn't get one. Nothing supports that story.

Lastly claiming that Nas throw rocks and hide his hand like Mega doesn't do disloyal shyt is just fanboy status. What did Mega do for Nas?

 

[H.S.]

I can’t tell whether Stoute was about to praise or try to shyt on Raekwon

I know Nore had to be kinda tight about the shade Stoute threw at Akinyele, being from Lefrak and all.

Called Mic Geronimo a Nas biter I’m glad somebody finally said it.

I get the point he was making about stuff not aging well. Just don’t think it applies to AZ. His post-Doe or Die stuff sounds even better to me now than it did back then. A lot of the R&B sounding stuff makes more sense now.

Edit: wrong thread but fukk it

 

[IllmaticDelta]

Nas COULDNT override it. nikka it was a supergroup being produced by the biggest producer in hip hop. Every single one of the artists in the group was platinum/gold artists and alot was on the line. Like I said before. Mega had ZERO leverage. Brought nothing to the table. He was only there cause he was Nas’ man. It wasnt just about Nas. It was a whole group and producers involved n shyt. Dude had unrealistic expectations of Nas. And wouldnt have even been presented that kind of opportunity if not for Nas. Mega’s fukk Nas campaign helped the shyt out of his career and garnered mad attention for his music whether he likes to admit it or not.

he admitted to over decade ago...he'd probably front about it now

Cormega - It's selling like a new Cormega album from what I hear. People are calling me from a lot of states and stuff. See what I be doing is uh.. I got people that's on the streets so it's like this rather than them sellin' drugs and stuff, sometimes I give people my songs and tell them, "Go Eat."

ThaFormula.com - That's dope man, that's definitely love right there. Even though the Nas situation helped get you a lot of publicity, do you think it also hurt you as far as people focusing more on the beef then your music?

Cormega - I don't know. It helped my sales a lot. My sales went up damn near 80 percent. In a way that takes away from what I'm trying to do because like I said, I don't want to be Joe Frazier to Nas's Ali. I don't wanna be acknowledged as just the dude that had a rivalry with Nas, because I seriously think that I'm one of the better lyricists in the rap game, period! But at the same time it happened, so whatever.

How many artists have albums done that never came out

Or sign and get put on the front lawn like a gnome

Mega was very successful ...independant of Nas

Who is still making music out of the FIRM

I will wait

shyt even Dre has a shelved album or two

Def Jam has had as many presidents and administrative changes than I have kissed my mother on the cheek

Everyone has worked, interned, managed, advised, produced, engineered, beefed in them offices

 

[FromBillionsCameOne]

Nature got his own record deal after the firm. Clearly his own work ethic destroyed his career. No one on the firm was locked into a dead end the way Cormega was at Def jam.
