My Pops Forever RIP
Either Irv or Game has told the story before but this wasn’t the first time its been brought up. I’m saying this because we all know Game is known to fudge facts but I believe this is true and it had nothing to do with Game joining up with 50 because Game was ADDED to G-Unit AFTER he signed with Aftermath, it wasn’t an original part of the plan. Matter of fact if memory serves Game was signed or at least heavily affiliated with Aftermath shortly before 50 himself was.

So no Irv was saying Game would be better of with Dre meaning better off on Aftermath, not as a member of G-Unit.
Game was on a Shady/Aftermath sampler pack in 2002. Game coulda easily wound up like Joe Beast.
I feel history isn't going to give Murder Inc the credit they deserve because of the way 50 Cent got Ja out the way.

That run was special and precious to anyone my age. Anybody from the age of 30-40 got a soft spot for Murder Inc.

Don't know much about the life he lead, but thanks for that for sure. RIP.
The last couple of years (Fyre Festival aside) has been kind to Ja and Ashanti at least. 50 made people feel embarrassed to like Murder Inc. Between the Verzuz and the BET documentary of Murder Inc., we can publicly just be like "those songs were part of my youth. They were really good. They had their time." I woulda included Irv Gotti too but he jumped off the deep end regarding Ashanti so I'm sure there were people he was one close to that he ended on bad terms with. For example, I don't expect Mic Geronimo to say shyt.

In a way feel bad I turned on them back then, 50s momentum was like a buzzsaw and being 13/14 in the schoolyard at the time it was about being the hardest :manny:

But Murder Inc’s music has definitely aged well even when I was bumping their music heavily the year before in 02. You’re more likely going to play some Ja/Ashanti when entertaining a woman when it’s time for company :banderas:

:mjlol: Okay, breh. Now go drink your Mountain Dew and watch some anime you fukking dweeb fakkit.

I scare mad people on here. It's funny.

There is a fear of Crumple on the Coli. It's prolly because I've amassed over 500,000 video views naturally in 20+ years and get paid doing what I love. That's my influence. I'm going to watch Tim Burton's 1989 Batman with my beautiful girlfriend now. I'm grateful, and committed to my goals.

Scare mad people? How has this muthafukker been around here for so long posting his bullshyt? When I first saw your posts I genuinely thought you was trolling. 500,000 views in TWENTY PLUS YEARS? Why and how is that something to be proud of? I'm not even going to reply or acknowledge you again, don't want to mess up a thread to a true legend.

REST IN PEACE IRV

If you weren't scared of me, then you wouldn't be so angry reacting to me. Check point ✅

Yeah, I'm grateful over 500,000 unique people saw my videos because the views were naturally earned, not paid for. And luckily my numbers are on the rise.

I'm committed to dropping my new album this year. 11 new tracks are already written and produced. I'm making some beat adjustments then I'm hitting the vocal booth. Love it!
