Truth!

I heard him on a podcast saying he was trying out mad styles to fit in with Native Tongues. Fashion always said that Juju wanted to be the frontman and was jealous when labels started asking about who he was, lol.

But like you said, I feel like Fashion and Juju both did a lot of foul sh*t. Thing is, I never hear Juju speak on any of it. It's always just Fashion. So the stories are mad one-sided. He was talking sh*t about how VIC was brought in to replace him while he was locked up, but then later spoke about how he's "family" with VIC now and he speaks to him like everyday. So I don’t know. Just seems like a lot of bad blood, but we're only getting Fashion's take on it.

Fashion,.....

Sound like a whole Lotta cap.
All because he was a solo guy.
Who was in a group..which always makes friction. Where fashion still went solo.

Why would fashion have to change his style.
To fit in with the natives.
When the first beatnut record starts off:

It's rhe hard pistol packing
Drug smuggler

Plus the video.
Is one of the next hardest visuals in rap all time.
after live squad for that exact time. That actually was not shelved and on relativity.
A complete indie label.
Like the shyt sound like cap.
Plus real talk. Fashion not as nice as juju imo.

Like fashion does not make me go revisit no material. While juju is the best and hardest producer.
that is an emcee on the mic legit.

Like I don't recall any fashion rhymes like that. Even from a solo.
Plus I own that fashion album.
Yet grav was better and that is. Ot bias from being from chicago either.

Like wtf.

Only time juju was not great. Was in the jiggy sound landscape change.
Yet juju wa one of the first to ramp in that sonic landscape.

Plus was super super nice.
after that change and built skills.
Fashion just need to go be solo.
This comment makes no sense. As beatnuts may have been with the natives. Except there was no time. Fashion should have had to change up. That shyt cap. Plus g rap not culture theif gangsta rapper and outlined all the entire Westcoast culture thief gangsta rappers for dolo. Sohh wtf is fashion is saying.
.shyt make no sense at all.
Or maybe I got favoritism for juju. Which comes from a body of work.
as a imo...
Juju = the nicest producer emcee ever in rap.

Fashion was flowing like water on those Beatnut tracks. JuJu was no slouch on the mic. Love those hardcore raps.

Word!

I still play the two first projects A LOT!! Fashion was flowing CRAZY on those beats. He was definitely a seasoned MC from day one in the group. He's the reason why they got their deal. The labels wanted to hear more from him after the Chi-Ali joint and after hearing he was doing all that ghostwriting.
