Drop Some Hip Hop Facts Some May Not Know

[SchrodingersStrapped!]

Jay Z shot his brother over a Rolex.

Jim Jones is one of the few rappers who stayed in touch with Big Meech.

Big Meech states that the Entertainment side of BMF had nothing to do with anything, That's why Jeezy isn't in the feds, never ratted.

Gucci Mane is from Alabama, the name Gucci has nothing to do with the brand, but rather his grandfather.

Gucci wanted to sign with BMF but he was too much of a loose cannon.

Bros (@Wild self too), now that I think about it, someone earlier in this thread said Foxy was supposed to be Big's protege and Kim for Hov, you know he had something to do with that deal. That means he didn't even want Kim originally, and used her as music business property off of Big's fame, this shyt just gets deeper I swear....
Puffy ruined countless careers and probably had her's blacklisted in the industry, he does that everyone who doesn't get him "his way" on things.

Remember King Los's career? Or when Monch ghostwrote "The Future" and NEVER could get a major label signing with him?

Last I've heard of her doing future collaborations was with Nicki, and well we all know how that turned out.... Foxy's psychologically unstable and that's why she doesn't do songs to "reunite" with New York rappers. Then you have Remy still bitter about their past.

Do all New York females hate each other or avoid working together?

Interestingly, Puffy was Nicki's 1st manager when she blew up in 2009-2010, she fired him the same year, I can only imagine why...

Diddy Explains Management Roles With Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj

Her past one was Waka's mom, Debra, but since then she's been doing business with Gee Robertson. I wonder what disputes went down the past 2 times.

I say this like a million times but again lmao...People talk about Lauryn Hill but Foxy is just as unstable and arguably even more and she also hasn't released an album in about 16 years. Foxy hasn't released an album since the Twin Towers was up but people act like its just Lauryn lol.

I see Foxy's IG page and it looks so sad. She takes like cell phone pics and its the picture quality you expect from a thot from Brownsville Brooklyn in her bathroom . You would never expect you were on the page of someone who was one of the most popular rap stars in the 90s.

as recently as 2 years ago and maybe even now Foxy was still shoplifting weaves and having warrants out for her

Yeah Puffy is just the devil though man

female emcees though its a combination of being catty and just having straight up bad luck.

for example missy elliot if i recall is one of the FEW female emcees that actually had multiple albums throughout her career. its not like the other ones that released like 2 and vanished. but even with missy i forget what year but wasn't there that long period where she was gone for like 7 years and she had all these crazy health issues?

that is an example of what i mean by a combination of bad luck also...I know you said NY females and Missy aint from NY but female emcees in general its like they aint no more "Ladies Night".

the females of the past are considered old school and the ones like Remy Ma are beefing with Nicki Minaj.....there is even a running joke at BET how Nicki Minaj wins best female emcee for like 10 years.

i just feel like most of these female rappers we know now or in the past....they will all just grow miserable together....it wont even be like the male legends where they are all squashing beef and doing business together. look at nas...in the past 3 years how many people did he end beef with? Even the big bad bully 50 ended several beefs

these female emcees though are catty.....Remy Ma was on Funk Flex the other day acting as if anybody gives a fukk about beef when she was spitting her NIcki Minaj diss... Its like we pass all that.

I know people gonna bring up Drake and Meek but that is just hilarious cause its funny to see Meek throw tantrums and get emotional

20 years ago female emcees got together to do a song and a video with each other.. i cant even see that happening today...Nicki is the only mainstream one but even the ones in the street like Remy i dont see them doing that.

me personally i think if rap has another golden age whether in a couple years or in 20 it will be cause of a new era of female emcees

Too Short never was a pimp

lool i heard this before, and also that he was homeless

Coolio discovered Ras Kass

DMX made his first appearance on Stretch and Bobbito with Percee P in 1991

Mehki Phifer was signed as a rapper to Warner Bros records in 1993

That's Fredo Santana with his father on the cover of his "Walking Legend" cover

Reasonable Doubt only sold 35,000 it's first week

Common's father used to play in the ABA (Pittsburgh Pipers)

Bud Bundy had Death Certificate and Illmatic posters hanging in his room on Married with Children

Zack Morris had posters of LL Cool J and Salt n Pepa on his wall when he took over Mr. Belding's office

Will Smith references Biggie's "Gimme The Loot" song on the episode "Viva Lost Wages" on the Fresh Prince

Grand Puba and CL Smooth are cousins

that makes sense why coolio was on his album. I remember looking at the tracklist and thinking that's a weird collab.

Can anybody from LA confirm mack 10 getting kidnapped and thrown in a trunk?

Un Kasa was holding the camera for 3 hours when water sign was on IG live

According to MC Search, Russel Simmons refused to sign Nas to Def Jam in the early 90's because he sounded too much like Kool G Rap and Kool G Rap doesnt sale records


According to Carmen Bryant Nas and Beyonce were fuking after the "You Owe me" Video and she found out when Beys number fell out of his pocket when she was doing his laundry and when she pressed him he tried to play it off but his lie was see thru and that ace under the sleeve was the real reason Jay squashed his beef with Nas

Squashing beef in a cuck manner with no revenge is a bigger L than Nas somehow using that as ammo. I wouldn't believe Nas if he said it unless he would have something to back his claim like Eminem did with Mariah on the warning. I don't think nas saw the crib or has recordings or cam footage of bey. I hope this is true but sounds like ducktales.

Drink champs. Forget what interview it was.

they first cousins.

I could see that, there's a passing resemblance and even they're rap styles are kinda similar.

 

[Atsym Sknyfs]

might be known but here I go again ..

on Kanes "Come on down with" with tip and busta .. Kane wanted him because of the verse from scenario and the Rar Rar .. after busta layed his verse Kane asked him where's the Rar Rar .. he said he not doing it ... long story short .. he does it but not part of his verse ... that's why he says it at the end via adlib..

he spoke about it this XXL Magazine back in 2006, i still own this issue too. here's another article explaining how he's related to him

Obie Trice Explains That Proof Is His First Cousin, Recalls News Of Death
DX: Someone else you were really good friends with, Proof. I know you and him went back a while. What were some of those moments like with him until he passed?

Obie Trice: Well you know Proof was like a cousin to me. He had a baby by like my first cousin so we was close – we found that out later on in our relationship, but that was my man. He was a real person and that’s hard to find nowadays out here, real people with good intentions and things like that. A lot of people can’t handle those type of people so I learned a lot from Proof. We was real close and I’ve got so much footage of me, him and Eminem that I plan on putting out to show my Shady experience and all the things that we did like unseen footage man. It’s just crazy like that was my brother as well as a labelmate.

DX: What was that moment like when you found out he was gone?

Obie Trice: It was crazy, like here in Detroit, we always get like silly death threats. Sometimes it’ll be like four in the morning and someone will send a text through the phone talking bout Proof got killed and shyt like that or Obie’s dead and you know, this type of shyt goes on back then in Detroit. When I found out that it was actually true, it was probably like four in the morning and a good friend of his called me crying and shyt and I knew then this is the real deal and I previously got shot in the head, like three months before him and I almost got killed, I almost died [from a shooting], you know what I’m saying? So he was at the hospital for me when that happened to me and then three months later he got the bullet to the back of his head and he ain’t make it. So you know that was real hard for me man. It took a long time for me to keep it moving after that.

Can't remember where I read it, but Sony records wanted to set up Nas and Beyonce as a power couple while she was still in DC. Apparently Nas wasn't feeling her and claimed she had bad breath after a date...
