That record was garbage. Even for 2001 standards.

it was keith murray whos budget was given to joe not tah

they prioritized joe over keith as they swapped release dates and joe recieved some of keiths features and budget

def jam seen joe as a replacement brand. both are lyrical rappers whos rap name is they actual name

"Pov City Anthem" was cool, but it wasn't the hit that Tah always seemed to believe it was.

"Pump It Up" didn't even drop until a couple years after Tah's track came out, lol. That's just the closest he's ever been to having an actual hit record, so I can see why he's mad, but that's not on Def Jam. He just didn't have the songs. Even when Irv and them was poppin'.

POV City Anthem was nice but he didn't sound different enough from Ja for me to be invested in him as a solo artist.

His timeline doesn't make sense but a lot of Def Jam artist were upset about how much promotion Joe Budden was getting.
