According to DJ scratch, nobody showed up to Craig Mack’s memorial service.

[<<TheStandard>>]

He's had no contact with people in the industry for decades...I'm not gonna shyt on anyone who didn't go. When Phife died, a LOT of people showed up because of his importance but also because of the relationships he built and cultivated. Just because you say RIP to someone online doesn't mean you gotta go to the wake....

Definitely one thing I'm learning as I get older. You really have to work and cultivate relationships otherwise they will die.

I'm willing to bet Craig wasn't associated with anyone in the industry since 96-97.

Puff even tried to get him to come on tour and he turned him down.

Eventually people stop caring.

swipe @ erick sermon smh

this dudes a legend and top 3 DJ of alltime but his constant bytchiness with EPMD makes him look petty. he posted how much more he made touring w/ Tribe then they did like 2 final shows

EPMD wasnt paying him his fair share of the show money, then when he decided to leave the group, Scratch was saying Eric was telling fans he missed the plane, or somebullshyt like that.

Shyt gets real personal when people claim to be your homie, and they wind up robbing you..one of the reasons WHY EPMD broke up in the 1st place..

Eventually people stop caring.

The difference between genuine relationships and being cool for the moment..

 

[iseetrolledpeople]

nikkas aint shyt..

Let ole Roger die ,i bet his ole war friends that he ainqt seen in 20 years show up and pay respect smh

This is a case of going full retarded.
Compare war bonds to people in the industry you partied with

You disappear on your friends for 20 years and you'll see how genuine the relationships are.

Friendships take work to maintain.

If they are a genuine friend, doesnt matter how much time has lapsed.

edit: Many relationships are industry friendships, very few people wind up true friends when meeting within the industry..

I was gonna post it.. everybody always run with the Diddy hate first..

Because it's an easy narrative.

Folks should be asking why wasn't anybody yelling down at Erick Sermon for not putting Craig down with Def Squad when Craig first left Bad Boy, only to sign with Street Life and have his shyt ruined.

he made the narrative. We wouldn't be talking about this if he didn't jump to conclusions.

How did he do that?

He was giving out standard contracts with publishing

Just like the Motown days
Just like the ones TLC OutKast goodie mob and countless others

So just because of the “love” he should keep pumping money into acts that not selling?

I never got that

The only thing I blame him on rally was that fake “family” thing he was pushing

DJ Scratch ain't famous, but he can get Diddy on the phone

I'm talking about him saying nobody showed up when people didn't know or were invited. The dj not Diddy... We already know Diddy a scumbag on the artist tip that's why nobody is signed now.

DJ Scratch got a pretty deep hate for EPMD.that turned into a EPMD slander post pretty quick.
