Eminem's drug habit

Brooklyn the planet...
Chris Lighty probably the most potent. While I love Dilla, Biggie and Scott LaRock, chris Lighty and his violator imprint managed a TON acts from Tribe to Nore to Busta to LL Cool J to a host of others. I dunno what made that brother do himself in but it's sad because he took a wealth of hip hop business savvy with him.

put a red dot on your head like a hindu
whether you like it or not Yam's death instantly pumped the brakes on alot of niccas careers...he was extremely good at finding new talent...there was even mad niccas in the UK who were crushed when he died

Maybe that why Rockys last album was a snoozer
Yup. Yams was always was putting me on artists. He would've been the goat A&R.
What Joey Fatts said about Yams..
"
know," Joey Fatts told HipHopDX in a clip that premiered as a part of today's DX Daily. "That's the main reason why I ain't got no label right now. I made six figures in 2013 because of him. I did 90 shows. He taught me the business aspect. He's a genius. He knows how to roll out projects. He knows how to do everything. He's a genius A&R. If you're looking for whoever would be a top A&R in 2015, 2014, it was Yams. He did everything, even the dirty work of going on the Internet and looking for the next hot shyt. He was a genius."
Explaining how his relationship with Yams transcended music, Fatts added that the 26-year old Harlem native "just wanted to help everybody."
"It wasn't a business to him," Joey Fatts said. "It was more of a brotherhood. Before I was making money in the Rap game I was already getting money. He made sure I was getting money from somewhere just because he fukked with me as a little bro. He held me down. I was standing in Beverly Hills before I even dropped a project. I was in the streets. I was sleeping in cars. I made six figures figures in 2013, I was only rapping for a year. I went to London, Copenhagen, Paris. I been everywhere because of him. This is the most giving thing he's done, gave me my career. I was in the streets gang-banging before this shyt, I didn't really have much to live for. He gave me this shyt. He did it right before he left. It's almost like he knew he was about to die. He was just helping mad people. If you would just look on the Internet you would just see him, like, 'Why is Yams with this dude?' He just wanted to help everybody."

Obviously Pac and Big, that gave HipHop and the west coast a black eye. As far as newer artist, none...

Honestly, none.
Sounds harsh, I know, but without the passing of certain figures, we wouldn't have other artists/sounds/movements rise from the ashes of those artists' deaths.
