The Death Row Inmates... most were paid $5000 to sign contracts.

[Wepa Man]

Chris “The Glove” Taylor: We all got screwed. Nate Dogg, Jewel, Rage and The Dogg Pound signed their contracts on the same day. We were getting ready to go on The Chronic tour. Dre and I were putting the tour music together at Trax Studios and Suge had them all sign their contracts. They got $5,000 each. When I signed my deal I got way more than that. I was like, “Damn. Y’all got $5,000? That’s f***ed up.”

DR. DRE




Chris “The Glove” Taylor: I got burned again too. Let me tell you about that song. We went up to Reno, Nevada to work on King T’s album because that was going to be the next album on Aftermath. I did that “Xxplosive” track for King T. As a matter of fact, that track and the one used by the reunited N.W.A called “Hello,” were done at that same session. Those were both originally for King T. “Hello” was a track that me and Dre both worked on together. He did the drum beat and I put everything else on top of it. “Xxplosive” that was some sh*t that I did.

Mobb Deep had an Issac Hayes sample for a song and I wanted to flip that – and I turned that in to “Xxplosive.” We would generally take the sample off and play the instruments slightly different so that it’s not an interpolation or a sample at that point. I had to get my lawyer involved because I didn’t even get paid the bare minimum that I should have been paid for my initial work.



Chris “The Glove” Taylor: Let me ask you, who painted the Sistine Chapel?

Interviewer: Michelangelo.

Chris “The Glove” Taylor: That’s who got the credit but it was a bunch of guys like myself. I found out that throughout history most of these great people didn’t even do the f*cking work. The Sistine Chapel was painted by a bunch of guys. Michelangelo taught them his strokes but they did the work and he would come in and just touch up a few things – the same with Dre. One dude could not have painted all of that! This has always been going on. It’s been like this forever. Michelangelo was the person connected to the Vatican that could get the money. Dre was that guy connected to Jimmy Iovine that could get us all paid.

$5k for an opportunity to work with Dre in his prime and be as big as Snoop without selling a record before hand.

I'll take it.

dre was the drake of time when it comes to this beat/producer

 

[Jerz-2]

Suge gave RBX a blank piece of paper and told him to sign it because that was his contract. RBX, who was a college student, knew that there had to be legal jargon and other language contained within the contract in order for it to be binding. However, his dumbass still signed it anyway.

The way Suge stole the original concept from Harry-O, then stole the positioning away from dikk Griffey, THEN stole the rest from Eazy-E....yeah, this isn't surprising.

 

[Craig Mack]

It's common knowledge that Dre was too busy sucking dikk & chilling in gay clubs instead of making hot beats in the 90's

let someone bitter about not being regarded as legendary as Dre re-write history brehs

Duke is a blantent hater.

Dre made plenty beats by himself and the proof is when you look at Eminems production. Notice how it sounds exactly like Dre's signature stuff. That couldnt have come from all ghost producers.

Dre knows his style; he pretty much made another Dre when you listen to Eminem's beats.
