always wonder about this

 

[KENNY DA COOKER]

always wonder about this

yeah BIG J was the inspiration for "LIL J" (j prince) back in the day...he was a big time promoter from Houston who helped sponsor the first NATIONWIDE RAP TOUR...the FRESH FEST featuring RUN DMC, WHODINI and the FAT BOYS...

I remember cause Binder copromoted with Al Haymon on many ventures.....

Binder was the man!!!.....till he caught that "case"...........

but it was obviously politically motivated since Binder's case namedropped personalities such as the former mayor of Houston and police chief

just like 50 cent said... "when niccas get political and start to maneuver ..they give you a hundred years, mane they did it to HOOVER"

Houston let alone texas already had their local jokers..

oak cliff assassin, d.o.c...rp cola....k rino willie d...jhamie(dude dancin in the clean up man n paul walls swangin in the rain)...hell even a young 3-2n face

dj darryl scott..dj screw..dj chill n dj premier useta spin at the same club allllllllllllll these rappers would show up n rap or battle..willie broke boys off every night until big mello came on the scene

cat a club called the rhinestone wrangler.j mentions it in the vanilla ice part..lil troy was in the mix puttin majority of those cats on wax a jus a single..

and it was like all of em..ended up at texas southern..to holla at lester pace to put their music on ktsu..hell i think ktsu was breakin rap long be4 the box was..

i kno rap-a-lot is nostalgic n this first think of when u mention htown

but troy was puttin alot ya favorite ol school rappers on wax be4 lil j got away from under big js shadow

troy was houstons eazy e...he was in the dope game hard..n puttin that money in the music..

n boys was doin shows just off singles..

j made 2 important moves in his entire career..

first was gettin face...face wasnt signed to short stop as an artist..so he was fair game..that buzz shyt he keeps mentionin..

face had that buzz when j got em..with the scarface single on short stop records..

j signed face n tweeked the beat a little n put the single back out..

2nd thing was allowing rick rubin to get involved on the getoboys album...n puttin it out the his def american label..

that was the key to rap-a-lot making it outside of texas..

them 3.5 mics went a long way

 

[shopthatwrecks]

p n j got waaaaaaaaay too much respect for one another..n was workin with each other even after the incident..

oh ok, ok

i feel like rap a lot is the best independent label of all time. no matter what trends or whatever was current, rap a lot always seemed to march to the beat of they own drum and i like that.

so what's up with rap a lot now? who still is on the label?

Yo can somebody elaborate on Big J?

I'm from Houston but I never heard much about him I just always heard his name tho

Scarface was talking shyt about J Prince in his book for not seeing any significant rap money until he signed with Def Jam. It made me wonder if he did the same to Bun and Pimp C and if he did...surprised Pimp C was quiet about it. I guess he learnt his lesson about talking about bosses when he want Master P...
