P past 2002 has been utter trash & borderline embarrassing
We talkin' bout NLR glory days brah (95-00)
Also, the 2004/05/06 albums from P were pretty good/entertaining anyway, can't deny that. Give em a spin
P is still good for a banger here and there no bullshyt.
How many nikkas did this here?
When you 1st got the CD outta the wrapper/open,
You turned over to the back, and you went str8 to the song that featured Mystikal? Lol
Man that dude use to kill features smh.
Then you opened the CD case and looked for the Mercedees cover, that shyt stayed featured in the booklet until she dropped her album

Lmao this was early 2000 I guess, before Trapped In Crime. C saying he got features from DMX, Nas and Lauryn Hill. In the end it was Fat Joe, Da Brat and JDalso claims TIC will be out on Jive Records (home of Mystikal, Too Short, E-40...), dude just lying like that, learned alot from P I see
TRU Records crew in the back of video 3 with New-9, Wayngo, Young Gunz
I wanna say, all them dudes that are in that video with C are dead, 1 may be in prison if I'm not mistaken. You can see them in Part 1 and Part 3, It's another interview C did where he talks/introduces them. Porch Boys, He may have done it in that video/ EP
Man I can go on.
Mr. Serv-On said he was chilling outside of his home, when Big Boi from Outkast pulled up and was like "man that's you" (talking bout his house and cars) and at that time, I wanna say Mr. Serv-On said he hadn't even come out with an album, I think Life Insurance was coming out in a couple of months, and Big Boi was like how you got all that with no album out, Mr. Serv-On said he just smiled to him. Big Boi said that he didn't have all that Mr and they had dropped 2 albums. I wanna say Mr. Serv-On also said something about Method Man saying that he was only getting like 6% off their album sales or something like that where P would give you 500k upfront with a house, stocked with food, furniture and P let you pick out your favorite car. Once the album was finished and turned in, P gave you another 500k on the back-end, something crazy like that
Serv-On said when Snoop came to NL, JD wanted Snoop on Da Brat CD and Snoop was about to do it for free, until P was like no, he told JD he wanted 250K for that verse from Snoop, Serv-On said that P and JD went back and forth about the number and P was like Da Brat has over 1 million fans, you do the math, I'm only asking for a quarter of her fan base, that's a dollar per fan, something Mr. Serv-On said that how P came up with that 250k number. JD couldn't say anything, he cut the check to P, and Snoop did the verse, Serv-On said Snoop was leaving NL office when P handed him over the 250k check, Snoop asked P was he going to get his cut % from outta the 250k (most CEO do this) P was like nah, "That's all you" and Serv-On said, Snoop couldn't believe that shyt, Said that was like a turning point in how Snoop started to understand the business.
I gotta find that Mr. Serv-On interview, dude really went into depth about how NL was ran, I think Serv-On had his hands on running the label or making decisions at one time in 99/2000.

Me all the way!
Serv On was around a lot and close to P via KLC so I believe it.
Crazy how P had so much power to break acts back to back and none of them could keep themselves afloat.
Even Mystikal was with Jive so it was obvious why he kept his fire burning by default.
And to think, budgets back then were bigger along with profits.
P wouldn't spend that much on videos and he didn't really pay a whole lot for marketing for albums
No Hook
Legend Like Craig Haynes
I know he always used the green screen
tell em broat bolded. Agree with the rest
P game came from Charles Thurman(e-40s uncle st Charles) and james prince..
Russell simmons has gone on record in e-40s unsung sayin 40 had the best deal in the industry
p got the game
but 40 got the teaching notice 40 never went bankrupt everytime he drops,,its still gold or platinum n still relevant
40 n p started at the sametime
he kept a Houston connect in pen n pixel..priority didn't have do shyt...p did all the work
Offtopic but how much dinero did Pen&Pixel make back then? Seemingly EVERYBODY from the south (prolly lots of Midwest acts too) had P&P covers in the mid-90s to early 00s. Dudes must have been swimming in $$$
