It's 1994, who you signin' with? death row records or bad boy records?

[filial_piety]

I wasn't equating sales and quality. You said Death Row was fading by '94 which I posted those numbers to show you they were not fading in terms of relevance.

In regards to quality, I've seen Dogg Food, AEOM, and Makaveli all in numerous "GOAT Deathrow album"/"Classic" discussions so you definitely don't speak for the majority on that subject.

Bottom line, you're wrong.

I said it "declined" and by your anecdotes of record sales it did. It's your math, not mine.

In regards to quality, I've never heard anyone mention Dogg Food as a classic. Perhaps AEOM and Macheveli, but no one places them above The Chronic and Doggystyle in terms of quality. That would also be an example of declining, because those two albums came before the later.

So either way, my argument holds up.

Damn I didn't notice you had a fukkin -1300 rep. I wouldn't have even wasted my time replying had I known

That's fine. I think by sheer logic and reason I've ended the discussion.

So being classic in the eyes of many (and commercially successful) but not as "classic" as the the first two (in your opinion only) signals a decline to you?

Ok, sure breh. It's been fun.

Would you seriously want to do business with Suge Knight?

Bad Boy.

or suge will send the booty squad after you

 

[KENNY DA COOKER]

BAD BOY case closed!!!

I'd rather be a broke azz artist running a marathon everyday to get Cheesecake for Puffy

then having to deal with having my ribs cracked and strangled to near death by Suge and his goons.....

this shyt shouldn't even be up for debate

DEATH ROW RECORDS was a torture chamber for entertainers

 

[Shadow King]

Bad Boy would've had access to me geographically first and I would've rolled. Would've gotten a placement on RTD and then blew shyt out the water from there. Album would've had production from Hitmen, Premier, Q-Tip, Easy Mo Bee, Pete Rock features from Big, Jay, Mary, Redman, Nas if he wasn't acting funny.

I was born 20 years too late brehs

not a classic album imo..has few classic tracks but its just an old album at this point.

By every interpretation of classic album it is such & the most important album of the yr it dropped

it still isn't a classic...there's too many skipable tracks...sorry you had to hear it.

Now nikkaz4Life, The Chronic, Doggystyle, and Me Against the World are classics
