THE AMOUNT OF TALENT THAT SIGNED TO AFTERMATH AND NEVER DROPPED IS INSANE
I know! It's terrifying. What's also scary is not many attacked Dre or Aftermath publically.
I never knew Ice Cube was signed at one point - he broke out and did superbly on his own tho. Bless that man.
I had such high hopes for Slim the Monster. I thought he had next.
I've yet to hear RBX's solo album.
It bothers me that Dre signed so many great acts.
Because the above list you posted - alot never even dropped albums.
Bless Dre tho.
Why he isn't active musically is beyond me. He won money wise, but not as a leader in rap to me. Sorry.
Jay Z is top now with his rapping skills alone off the Electronica album.

HERES A LIL BIOGRAPGY I FOUND FROM BACK IN ‘02:
In a recent interview Shaunta was asked about other female rap artists. She said about Lil Kim that "She is dope, but she needs to leave Atlantic records", and about Da Brat "She is incredible" and last but not least about Foxy Brown "fukk her. She is an insecure, immature little bytch and she is just mad because her man wanted to fukk me". On the 21-minute Bonus-CD of the 8Mile Soundtrack called “The Shady/Aftermath Sampler”; are unreleased song of the label featured. For example a song by Eminem (“Stimulate”), a short freestyle by 50 Cent over the beat of “Til I Collapse” from the album “The Eminem Show” (2002); Joe Beast with “Gangsta” Brooklyn with “The Weekend” and Shaunta with a blazing joint called “California”
With Shaunta, Dr. Dre, who’s one of the main people responsible for Hip Hops worldwide success, just found another upcoming star! You can be prepared for a hot year in 2003 and of course Aftermathmusic.com is at it again...
YUP ALSO MONTEL JORDAN
AND CHINO XL
I know! It's terrifying. What's also scary is not many attacked Dre or Aftermath publically.
I’ve read in a few interviews from various Aftermath artists that being on the label was like having a good 9-5 job. They had to show up every day to the studio and work, they were paid a salary, and they also got benefits like health/dental insurance.
I think most of them also went into it knowing Dre might shelf them, or just use them as writers for various projects.
They were treated well and they got to work with and learn from arguably the greatest producer of our time. I think all that is why you don’t see people bad mouthing Dre that used to be on the label. Not to mention, Dre seems to let people come back into his camp and work with him again after they have left, so they don’t want to burn that bridge because he might need them for something in the future.
Dubcnn just cracked dres vault wit all these recent leaks

HERES A LIL BIOGRAPGY I FOUND FROM BACK IN ‘02:
Shaunta is the first female rapper on Dr. Dre’s label Aftermath. She is straight outta Compton / California, the home of gangsta rap. After Truth Hurts just released her debut album "Truthfully Speaking" (You can see Shaunta in the "Addictive" video), it looks like Shaunta will release her own debut album in 2003. It won’t take long until Shaunta will also show her talent. Dr. Dre said about her release: "Along with The Eminem Show and Truthfully Speaking, I hope to release the debut album from Shaunta next year. We just didn't want to put together a regular show with turntables and mics. We put together a real show, and we kept it gritty. I think people really appreciated that. And we kept the audience's attention, so there was no time for trouble to start."
Even before her time on Aftermath Shaunta performed Songs by Paris Davis, Rodney Jerkins und Jean Bryant. She also worked with Chino Xl in the past. She worked on two songs, “Baby Momma” and “Sorry”, off his album “Told U So”, which was released in 2001. She was also featured on Da Brat’s “We Them bytches", Brandy’s "U Don`t Know Me”, Montell Jordan’s "Let's Ride (Remix)" from the “Dr. Dolittle” Soundtrack or Shae Jones "Bad Boy (remix)", just to name a few. Not that long ago, the soundtrack for the movie “The Wash” was released, where she also performed two songs. The first track was “Benefit Of The Doubt” featuring Truth Hurts and the second a solo joint called “Good Lovin”. With this song Shaunta brought her own style a little closer to the fans. Her sexy lyrics and her soulful voice seem to be made for each other.
Shaunta also worked with hit producer Timbaland. Fans can check her out on a remix for Timbalands & Maggoo's Song "Luv 2 Luv Ya”z She also showed up on LL Cool J’s "Doin it" Tour. But when she wanted to work with Dr. Dre, the doctor (AftermathMusic.com) was very surprised. She thought he was only down with Timaland, but after a few serious meetings with her, Timbaland and her label, she split with Atlantic Records and signed with Dr. Dre's Aftermath. She was searching for new adventures and didn’t want to stay as a so called "One Hit Wonder". She just told Dre "I'd be down with you if you'd let me". That’s the kind of artists Dr. Dre is searching for. He doesn’t have to watch and correct what all his art*ts are doing. Eminem, Ice Cube, Rakim and also Truth Hurts have the talent to work independently. Of course, every artist needs some time for devoloping and this time is over for Shaunta. The track "Good Lovin" on the "The Wash" Soundtrack was produced by Shaunta herself.

She said about Lil Kim that "She is dope, but she needs to leave Atlantic records", and about Da Brat "She is incredible" and last but not least about Foxy Brown "fukk her.
