I didn't know who Cormega was until Nas.

I didn't know who Cormega was until Nas.

Nobody across the world didn't know that nikka.
He must have done something to be almost signed beforehand though.
That NaS shoutout on the GOAT album launched him & AZ's career's absolutely.

Great segment


Marley played "On the Real" a million times.

Steve Stoute has always been a clown.


Mega looks exactly the same as when he came out.

 

[FreshAIG]

I remember Marley Marl said Cormega's album and the Lords of the Underground albums were supposed to drop round the same time on (I think on Pendulum), but Mega got locked up.

 

[Piff Perkins]

If Mega was a nobody, why was Marley Marl working with him before Illmatic dropped.


The way people get weird over Mega will never make sense to me. He has every right to feel some type of way about how people constantly try to belittle or son him.

 

[Artificial Intelligence]

Who’s this Nas Breh? Is he good?

 

[Mike Wins]

Steve Stoute still as shady and self serving as ever. The way he still shyt on Mega and AZ to this day is corny, although Mega or his crew supposedly put hands on Stoute back in the day so he probably still tight about that.

Nas said IWW was supposed to be entirely produced my Marley. But stopped recording with him after he took “on the real” which was supposed to be a solo track and added Kamakazi and mega on it without his knowing and leaked it to the djs to promote mega and kamakazi whom Marley had taken under his wing as his new artists

I didn't watch the vid so not sure if this was covered but Mega had features on albums in the late 80s and early 90s and then what you mentioned above, so yeah, he wasn't a house hold name but he was already known in the NY music industry, at least from a hip hop perspective.

 

[Sonic Boom of the South]

Just because a random ass fan didn't know who he was didn't mean he wasn't already moving in the industry.

Like yo nobody ass was putting rappers on.

Thanks, first time hearing this.

Had to have been Stoute's call because Mega was down with Nas' people so doesnt seem like he would have opposed helping Mega get on.

Stoute, the manager would have been upset by people eating off his artist for free

First time hearing this, did Mega get a feature on their album?
