Artists that were blackballed from the music industry.

[Damnshow]

Canibus and Charles Hamilton were not blackballed from the industry lol

Canibus bad decisions ruined his career. You come at LL Cool J and Eminem calling them sellouts when your mentor was a shameless sellout Wyclef. Your debut album blows and over the years you don't improve your skillset exposing yourself as a one dimensional rapper..... sounds like fans got tired of Bis pretty fast.

And Charles Hamilton had mental problems plus addicted to drugs. No company is going to put up with you if you aren't willing to change unless you are a very talented artist who draws a lot of money and Charles Hamilton wasn't that guy.

Fame is a helluva drug breh.

Some would much rather look like they have it to millions of people, than to actually have it but only a couple people know or even care.

This dude still claims he was blackballed Does Terrence Trent D’Arby Believe Michael Jackson Sabotaged His Career?

Recently stumbled back onto this album and it held up way better than I thought it would after the years

 

[Mike the Executioner]

Charles and I have mutual friends and what I heard at that time was Jimmy Iovine wanted to sign him under the condition that he became more pop, like a Chance the Rapper or Anderson Paak, and Charles refused so they dropped him. His mental health began declining from there. Charles also ghostproduced and wrote Eminem’s Relapse album.

Receipts?

Alot of cats are confusing falling off/falling back with being blackballed

 

[BmoreGorilla]

You wasn't around or paying attention back then or you would understand

The remix that was all over the radio first "Crazy in love" sounded like it



and the song had a ton of rapper features





"Crazy in Love" took that whole formula and ran with it

I remember that shyt well. I was in my 20s


But nah that remix don’t sound nothing like Crazy In Love
