I just watched that anger management mtv special again recently, and damn its still a mystery how 50 wasted so much potential with his label. Signing two legendary groups with Mobb Deep & M.O.P is especially baffling for me, even that Mase mixtape was fukkin hot. He shouldve really focused on their albums, just listen to that "When Death Becomes You" joint M.O.P did for the GRODT ost, shyt was a banger. Imagine a whole album of stuff like this :wow: With the great production maybe they couldve scored another "Ante Up" like hit....
And of course the Mobb Deep album, shyt had its gems but was rushed and too different from their usual style, but with a little bit more focus shyt couldve been a slapper. The first couple tracks are actually dope, even tho P wasn't as strong as usually on here...
What y'all think ?

That M.O.P. signing had so much potential man :mjcry:

When Death Becomes U and the Remix to I'll Whip Your Head Boy are just :wow:

Words can express how gully those 50 and M.O.P. collabos were.

Mobb Deep made great music with them outside of the corny mainstream cuts :smh:

P was :flabbynsick: but he still sounded :demonic: so :manny:

Looking back, the only extra acts that made sense was mobb deep, game, ma$e,olivia. And maybe spider loc ( for goon purposes)

I knew the MOP deal wouldn't work because of what they did at rocafella even tho they had potential to make something dope... Everyone else was trash or didn't fit in...
