Wish I could find the video of this, I just saw it live on TV when it happened and haven't been able to find it since


Horrible era. That blog rap Nah right era could be its own thread. So many rappers that got pushed hard and went nowhere. Mickey Factz, The Knux, Asher Roth, and several other corny sounding muthafukkas

Yeah I found the 50 part but not Joe's part when he was on stage

 

[Vinny Lupton]

 

[Chip Skylark]

The Mac Miller /Pharrell project called Pink Slime that they were working on. Only 2 songs wound up dropping from it

I think people mentioned Bishop Lamont, but does anyone remember he beefed with Game for a second and dropped a diss song:



He also got into a fight with X.O. aka Scipio who was "signed" to BlackWallStreet, and supposedly bit X.O., who posted a picture with bite marks on his ribs.

Joell Ortiz was signed to Aftermath and left just before they started Slaughterhouse

Eminem's "comeback song" Crack a Bottle leaking without 50s verse and Eminem rapping Dre's verse and another unreleased reference verse (for Dre)

Dame Dash naming Beans and Cam VPs of Rocafella while Jay was on vacation learning to swim

It was only Cam. Beanie actually touched on this on the Drink Champs episode he was on.

1:05 point

He only dropped this mixtape. Never released an album with them

I hated seeing all the old Roc-A-Fella artists scrambling post breakup.

Dre having a new "protege" after the Game/G-Unit falling out that was supposed to be all over Detox

Snoop, Hitman, Knocturnal, Bishop, Kendrick... Who is missing? Dre always had someone. I wanted a Hitman album bad I thought it would be dope.

another Jay-z cosign.

Jay's def jam run was terrible in a lot of ways but I guess he gets credit for Rihanna, Ross, and Jeezy?
