straight outta compton, eazy-duz-it, no one can do it better, livin' like hustlers, michel'le, 100 miles and runnin' ep, and nikkaz4life


eazy e = goat ceo and persona in hip hop
nwa = most influential hip hop group
ice cube = 1 of the greatest mcs of all time. could be consider the goat
the d.o.c. = hip hop's most pure mc/lyricist off 1 album alone! the goat ghostwriter
dr. dre = great producer at the time and back when it was just him and yella on the boards
mc ren = great mc
dj yella = great assistant producer and dj
above the law = hip hop's most underrated group/cold187um the creator of g funk
kokane = the blueprint for singin' on hip hop hooks. underrated artist

there were no slouches of talent in this camp at all

they were the goat label because even after n.w.a. broke up because they were still thrivin' with bone thugs, eazy's solo abums and above the law albums :wow:

Deathrow had Dre, that's the only reason ruthless after dre wasn't the same.

And death row had the machine behind them as well.

yeah, it wasn't the same without dre obviously but also without all of nwa together as unit
they're split as a group took a toll on all of them because really they was boys in the beginnin'
ruthless still did well, made bank and had talent (cold187um and dj u-neek as a producers) after dre left, it's the original vibe of camp had changed a bit

False.

Cube and Sir Jinx where cool, Cube met Dre thru Sir Jinx, Cube and Dre started to do music together.

Yella, Arabian Prince, was cool with Dre, Not Cube.

Eazy was cool with Dre, but not Cube.

Im trying to get this story where all the cats all hung out and where the most bosom of buddies before NWA.

If they where all buddy buddy, the group wouldnt have broken up.

Yep, thats why I called you on it.

Ive been through it as well, friend over 20 years went REALLY bad on me.

Yet at the end of the day, the music was more important than their friendships/relationships..:manny:

i hear you and i feel that

you would think the music was more important but people had different opinions and outlooks on things and egos and money at hand. it's a business too and when business comes into the arena, sometimes the lines between friendships and business get blurry

but i feel what you sayin' though
