I wonder about the extortion part.
So somebody got you so scared that you're just giving him money, and he forces you to record a verse for his album and the verse is clearly dissing that person?

If he was getting extorted, how long? Why did it stop? If it stopped years before it became public, why not Reveal it sooner?

It's "soft extortion", basically, he frames it like he's "stepping in" to 'curb the dog" (Sherm), here's your chain back P, and P hands over some stacks, and some verses for Lake's compilation. Everyone pretends that Sherm is the real menace, when Lake's pulling the strings. If you don't comply, those incidents don't stop, and since P wanted to hang in the QB circles where Sherm and Lake hold weight, this was the only way.

Come to think of it...since it had Havoc on it...it is possible that it was recorded during the Murda Muzik days :ohhh:
Dealt With the Bullshyt was clearly recorded when the Quiet Storm remix was recorded as Kim has uncredited vocals on the hook.

Dealt wit the bullshyt is from murda musik, it was recorded BEFORE im goin out wit lil cease. Jus ended up on hnic

It's almost like back in the day when Mob would extort businesses and walk into the local Mom and Pop and say "Hey, there's a lot of criminals running around here, you should pay us to prevent anything from happening" and some oblige and then others didn't, and the ones who didn't would constantly get their stores robbed and vandalized until they did.

I'm sure Lake's soul hasn't recovered from Nas' verse on Still Dreaming.

"How you a man waiting for the next man to get rich? :gucci:
Your plan is to stick out your hand real quick
So if he feed your family and he serve you shyt
Then he need that head you get and he deserve your bytch :ufdup:
Since you wishin' cash fall from the sky all your life
Dwellin' on the past when you was alright :ehh:
When you was getting cash but wasn't too bright :mjlol:
Now your luck down, you feel like bustin' them shells
Nobody owe you, can't do nothin' for self :camby:
Want nikkas to show you, how to come up with green
I schemed since I'm 14, what the fukk was your dream? :what:
Rental cars, little broads, saying you was seen
With little nikkas with a chain, you was doing your thing :rudy:
How high was I? You the thousandth guy
That came around thinking we can see eye to eye :smugbiden:
We on a different echelon
Could've got bread together, now you get skedded on :pacspit:

So keep dreaming :hhh:"

Right. P wasn't getting extorted. Lake and them was trying to put him under pressure so they can extort him but Prodigy bucked. He kinda mentioned that on one if the songs from HNIC 2.

This is why I never paid attention to nikkas would would say Kanye had the best verse on that track. nikkas really don't know how he was handing that Ether out to Lake and a few other people from QB. Lol

I love prodigy man but ....He is a dumb ass for still hanging out in QB. Should have just shifted to prepping Hempstead more. It's not like he ever hid the fact he was from there. It was those dudes that smacked sherm over the head with a bottle.



What was some of the earliest mentions of Sherm and Lake on record.

I know Lake was mentioned at the tail end of Represent with a boat load of other names.
