I knew nu'n about this. Elaborate.

I wont go into it but there was a great article on Rico from Dungeon Family and it touches on some of his issues.
The difference is Rico laid low when it was bad and was productive when he was functioning.
Cool Breeze was all over the place and highly erratic and it was not weed/alcohol doing all that.
Went from recreational to wreckage.
I don't know if he's clean now but from his current attitude/energy the damage has prolly already been done.
Stuff will have you burnt out remembering things that didn't ever happen.

A lot of it had to do with LaFace Records and their efforts to make (all of) them mainstream.
They wanted Outkast to be just CeeLo and Andre (the two eclectic guys) and wanted to throw Big Boi into Goodie Mob.

That sounds like some shyt label heads would do. Dre and Big Boi had crazy chemistry with one another I’m glad that did not come to fruition.

Yeah, i don't know about that. Cee lo being part of kast is known, but big in goodie mob? Never heard of that. Dre wasn't even eclectic back then.

Honestly, when you look at Dungeon Family's output at the time, it was hard to follow Aquemini and Still Standing. Does his album measure up to those? What's crazy is neither album had a monster, mega single (even though "Rosa Parks" felt like one).

Listening to Breeze's album, it didn't really stand out the way those did. I felt like he needed more of the Organized Noize sound that they placed Kurupt with that year or even what they did for Eightball & MJG that year. "Watch For The Hook" is one of their best heats and that song is classic IMO, but aside from a few other songs, nothing matches the energy, urgency, or intensity.

Cool breeze could have been a star if they marketed him like one. Same as witchdoctor
