since thecoli.com members love throwing around the word "Industry Plant" so much.. im sure our resident industry experts would have plenty to say about rappers of the past, rise to stardom.. ill start with a few using coli logic 101..

Notorious B.I.G: "dudes clearly a plant.. all he had was some random song about partying, on some soundtrack no one even heard of.. lies about being broke, and selling drugs.. and, lets be serious.. whos getting Method Man on their first album.. :comeon:"

Nas: "this dude went from being some random rapper on a Main Source posse cut.. to being hailed as the King of NY off one album.. now, tell me that aint the definition of a plant.. :usure:"


Snoop Dogg: "no album.. out of nowhere- just drops a song with Dr. Dre.. all of a sudden he's over MTV and basically being shoved at us.. his growth wasnt organic, whatsoever.. get Snoop the Plant up outta here :camby:"

feel free to add on.. and, please use thecoli.com logic doing so.. :mjgrin:

:mjlol: @hustlemania u make me sick lol

It's funny you mention NAS because I actually got into a discussion that turned into an argument live on air with the conscious rapper NYOIL (the UMC's) from Staten Island who had the audacity to say that ILLMATIC was a marketing scheme :why:

Dude was just salty and jealous cause Nas was the shyt! And he felt like I was jocking him too hard

"i guess we gonna act like Redman aint a industry plant.. out of nowhere, he just jumped on a track with EPMD.. next thing you know, his debut gets 4.5mics in The Source.. features everywhere.. but, people are gonna act like the Def Jam machine aint just forcing this obvious plant on us, huh.. :mjpls:"- thecoli.com 1992

But real talk.....the 90s was full of Industry plants..simply because Labels wasn't in tune to the streets this was prior to the mixtape being used as a promotional tool and the internet...

This is the era in which i worked Radio and you didn't playback record based on buzz or request...but simply cause the record was "serviced" to you by the label or Indy promoter ..i.e PAYOLA....


The kid group QUO out of Australia is the best example of a Industry plant....

They were a kid group doing horrorcore ...
:russ:

And we're signed to Michael Jackson label Mjj a subsidiary of Epic records...

They got called out by DJ S&S for being a fraud......

Californ-i-a by way of BK
MC Hammer - Too obvious

Onyx - One nikka was a barber with orange dreads and they did house music before getting on then they turn into gangster rappers :stopitslime:

Diggable Planets - Never seen nobody bumping this shyt in the Hood, two weirdo nikkas and a racially ambiguous lead female rapper? Industry made up shyt

Arrested Development - Look at these nikkas B :francis:

Mobb Deep was signed to Loud back in 92. :troll:
They intentionally released a wack album on another label to create an "underdog" effect. :wow:
Oh...you bought that story about them bumping into Q-Tip outside of a record label and then he has no involvement on the pretend album but is all over the second album :troll:
Let me just take a year off from Tribe to record an album with these failed kiddie rappers :troll:
If you take the first letters out of the song titles from Juvenile Hell it spells Steve Rifkind :troll:
