I dont know, Paul C was doing rock before hiphop, im sure Bob Power was doing something big. Those where the type of people in those positions and job and they had the experience.

damn Pac prob didnt know that Eric B n Rakim was basically the same as Suge n Pac- Eric B and Suge didnt do nothing but provide security n collect money
Wasn't Eric B suppose to be a part of Pac's plan for Death Row East?

I don't see any parallel between Eric B and Suge Knight, that's a stretch

I instantly presumed when reading this story that Eric B. was either paying for the studio time or he paid to cut the demo that got Rakim signed

People in these situations often will take those producer credits

that's how the game goes

Suge used the big scary dude formula to become an active and usefull ally in the industry. He then used his hood ties to isolate him from direct violence. He took everything from Eric except that Eric was able to do it with class and move in silence. Something Puff was originally taught , but decided to take the Suge route.

I think Eric B’s old man was the g. I saw an interview where he talked about doing a show back when they were just starting out and someone in the crowd disrespected Eric Bs dad without knowing who he was and paid for it.

It sounded like his pops mighta been the one behind the scenes.

Eric B was mosdef a GOON

Thats why Pac + Suge aligned himself with Eric B, coz they knew he was beefing with Henchman + Puffy and them
Didn't know he had beef with them. :jbhmm: What can you speak on?
Little Shawn threatening to shoot Mike Tyson. Threatening Jodeci. Diddy warning Suge. Etc.
I got my answer from this thread. Shawn was down with Jimmy/Jack. He was the one they used to lure 2pac to Quad the night he got shot. Pac/Suge had Eric B and other street duded down with them for DR East. Shawn mentions the beef between them and Eric. Also, Peter Shue n his Funk Flex interview mentioned getting at Suge while in NY to let him know that they wasn't all punks. Peter later got cool with Suge. All of this lines up with what Shawn said.

Is there any interviews with Hatian Jack?
