50 doing that SMS shyt was the nail in the coffin
G Unit records wasn't in competition with Shady or Aftermath, G Unit was under them so it's a good chance out of G Unit, Aftermath, and Interscope, G-Unit saw the least amount of profit off G Unit record sales
Far as clothing lines, no clue how that works but Shady wasn't that big of a clothing line anyway and Em didn't go hard with promoting it
Whatever few dollars G Unit clothing made didn't mean much to Dre and Em because they were already rich as hell before 50 and was already caking from his music sales
But for him to go into direct competition with Beats instead of helping promote beats itself was a big contributor to his downfall
Crazy how he the one who brought the 48 to the public and was such an advocate he did a book with the nikka who created it
Then he turns around and violated the very first law: Never Outshine The Master
Prolly woulda made a lot more money getting down with Beats than going into competition with them and wouldn't be on damn near blackball status
Dre was really doing records with Ross while Ross and 50 were beefing and even showed up at Ross' birthday party with a $100k watch for him
That shyt was a message to 50
