- Mike Jones having some crazy collabs that never came out, I Dream w/ Z-Ro and Krayzie Bone, had a song with Bobby Brown and TI. He actually did a Kanye song w/ Cons that did come out that is dope
- Spaceghostpurrp squashing the ASAP beef, yams retweeted him and everything but it was all deleted the next day
- Carti being on Awful Records
-
Bun B dropping a song w/ Pimp C, 2pac and Trey Songz in like 09
- Future and Thug having twitter beef for a day
- Rihanna making a real rap type push in 09 after the CB shyt and being good at it
- All the rumors that a rapper in Houston in rapper had a House in Virginia, then Mike Jones suddenly drops a ton of weight after being in hibernation for like 3 years
- Word was AZ got shacked up with a multi millionaire chick and thats why he stopped dropping music, he was on fire in the mid to late 00s music wise

I'll think of more later because a lot of shyt that happened and was rumored online in 06-2011 before the internet was huge just got forgot about

Rev. Run's children's rap careers. Digging and his brother were putting out music. Ut seemed like his brother was on the cusp of blowing up. Then Diggy puts out a song over "Made You Look" and the light shifted to him. He had a buzz and got play on 106, but after the first album, nothing else was heard. Haven't heard much from his older brother either.

-Maino was the first rapper to sign a 360 deal
-French Montana & Drake getting tummy tucks
-Drake leaving the urologist holding a herpes medication pamphlet
-Trippie Redd was supposed to be the massive superstar, not Tekashi
-Rich the Kid being signed to QC for 5 years & rapping like an offbrand Quavo
-Offset being arrested with drugs & guns, but being let go because the Feds were building a bigger case against him

No wonder Maino was so mad when he first came out. First rapper that had the label eating tour money. :wow:

Californ-i-a by way of BK
This later turned into a joint album that he references constantly on the Joprah show. Another weird thing about this is he doesn't talk about it when someone close to Big is on the show like Bus or Puff.

Could be telling the truth for all we know but it seem like ducktales. :russ:
To be fair to Fat Joe, I have yet to hear someone say Fat Joe lied about any of his hip hop stories, and most of them are way more harder to believe than he recorded some songs with Biggie. Until he gets exposed for telling fibs, I'm going to believe this story is as true as his others

"Young Cheezy!!!" :bryan:


Was it 106 &
Phonte saying Prodigy fell off and then Prodigy responding with a long rant in ALL CAPS but specifically writing “little brother” in lower case

Phonte dropping a parody album years before Little Brother made it big where he impersonates Wu Tang and Cash Money

Jeezy being in the Bad Boy South group “Boyz N the Hood” before he went solo

Star’s stint with Power 105.1 where he worked with that white girl named “White Trash Helene” and was fired after he threatened to “R Kelly” DJ Envy’s kid

Young Berg taking multiple Ls (getting slapped by Maino, falling off a scooter and then getting cited by a cop)

Nas’ rant against Hot 97 after they didn’t let him hang the Jay Z doll at Summer Jam

Ransom’s goon slapping Joe Budden’s friend/family member in the face

Superhead’s appearance on Miss Jones claiming Kool G Rap abused her, G Rap and his wife calling in response and inadvertently snitching on Method Man by saying he cheated on his wife with Superhead, Method Man calling to clear his name and then ending the interview by telling G Rap “You’re still in my top 5 though”

Bruno (Sacha Baron Cohen) putting his ass in Eminem’s face at the MTV movie awards

Eminem beefing with Moby and Triumph the Insult Comic Dog at the VMAs

Fat Joe dissing 50 while presenting at the VMAs by saying he’s happy with all the extra security courtesy of G Unit, 50 responding by cursing out Fat Joe after his performance and Kanye standing up and watching 50’s rant with an “this is inspiring me to one day create similar fukkery at the VMAs” expression

Chris Rock absolutely destroying everyone at the 2004 VMAs “Can’t sit 50 next to Ja Rule, can’t sit Nas next to Jay Z, you got the Olsen twins down there and R Kelly WAY up there”

Mistah Fab beating Royce Da 5’9 in a live freestyle battle and then Royce killing Fab on wax

Mistah Fab caping for that Bay Area white girl V Nasty when people were giving her shyt for saying nygga all the time

Queen Latifah dissing Foxy Brown

A young Fresh Prince dissing people with AIDS during a live concert in the late 80s

A Tribe Called Quest dissing gay people and the song being left off the album

Everlast from House of Pain fighting DJ Quik at the airport after Quik dissed him

Posta Boy beating Immortal Technique on Freestyle Friday

Termanology being branded as the next Big Pun after dropping “Watch How It Go Down” with Preemo and then dropping an absolute dud of an album despite an all star line up of producers


I remember watching that shyt LIVE as it happened lmao. Fat Joe pointed RIGHT at them as he said that shyt too. Then when 50 was performing you could tell he was mad as hell and couldn’t WAIT to say something.


Kanye looked like a kid at the ice cream shop. Dude literally had the :krs: face!

Jojo got yoked up and that was the end of it for him.

Is Diggy even still rappin? Like you said it seemed like dude blew up.

But i think the issue came with his label (Atlantic?). After that "Made You Look" it seemed like he was spitting bars
& tryna blow that way. But later on he was marketed to the teeny bopers. So he did tours with Mindless Behavior ('member them?). That
shyt makes money but aint no career in that market in the long-run.
