Can you elaborate, never heard this..

They were the 1st artists signed (not counting Jay-Z since he was part owner of the label) and the 2nd Roc-a-Fella release after Reasonable Doubt.

Its fukked up how Def Jam dropped the ball with the group-just rode the wave with the singles and left them to obscurity, Kenny and Allen part ways, then the Roc signs Allen a few years later...

When he said start, i mean the inception of the label.

Not artists getting signed to the label, then getting no backing..

Actually, when I asked Allen about that, he mentioned being a part of the Roc family but HELP START was never mentioned.

Well... TECHNICALLY, they were the start. You have to consider that they were Roc-a-Fella's 1st artists... that's the group that established the ROC as a legit label.

I can feel this.

Yet The Roc wasnt legit without Jay Z?

And..to me..They just happen to be the 1st non east group to get signed to a rap label...nothing more, nothing less.

It'd be diff if Christion had the push say, Dipset or State Prop had...
