Ruff Ryders Chronicles (5 part Docuseries) Wednesday 9pm EST on BET

[DarkandHellisHot]

Can anyone hook a brotha up with a lank for ep 2 n 3?

Man I was anticipating Opposite Of H20 and WATS hard, counted them days as a yung buck. And they didn't deliver. Subpar and mediocre. Generic beats n concepts. Hearing Drag for an entire album was tiresome, he's like the RR Full Blooded/Hound

go on the left side and choose the part 2

"in 1993 ruff ryders and mushmen reached a settlement" i doubt mushmen want that to but the way it happened of course he agreed


Edit: damn irv tell to lyor that def jam is wack

"cab is a free ride i ain't paying fukk outta here" x is wild

I feel like X should have been had some ownership based on him being there day 1 like Jay was with Rocafella

but at the same time dude was a crackhead so I understand them saying no

Ruff ryders family owned...its rare that family owned buisnesses allow outsiders in...
Mannie fresh was promised a piece of cash money....

Gene is wrong as you mentioned but his book will be entertaining since he was around the 50cent jarule beef briefly as 50cent security and did security for other folks and other detailed information. Gene has good intentions in my opinion. For me, it was from him he explained the start of bad boys and dispell some myths regarding that Biggie wanted to go to the party when that was not the case and during the choke no joke interview lil cease got on Instagram to acknowledge that Gene did warn him.

Outside the personal attacks both him and Reggie has made statements that I have doubts not cause I think their lying but they believe it's true. Like Reggie beloved Stretch was killed by associates of deathrow or Pac that put hit on Stretch. Napoleon from Outlaws stated Stretch died over street shyt. Now the former hip hop cop Derrick stated the killer of jam master Jay also killed Stretch from a witness.

Maybe jean saw a Muslim looking dude that looks like Amir Muhammad or whatever but I personally believe the Greg kading story.

One thing that shake my head is how puff didn't have much security when clearly he had the means to do so. It's one thing he didn't bring Wolf or the request Wolf said he wanted and that could've been a liability from a business standpoint. Imagine if your boy gets in shootout and innocent people hurt and lawsuits that can be prevented. Man Pac and big Never got a chance to see fruits of their labor smh.

Yeah stretch died from stealing Ks of coke he was told to give them back by some bigwig n didn’t wen he didn’t that’s wen the hit was put out on him ... it was a couple of them in the car that shot stretch tinard been one of them god knows who the other cats were unless tinard speaks ....

Yeah exactly. But thing is when P was hot Suge was locked up so when did all that rah rah shyt he talking about even go down?

Suge was locked up and in court from late 1996 to 2001/02. nikkaz acting like Suge was out running the streets. He had his lackeys
running the label during it.

This and even then there was a deathrow piru on piru war that was taking place from around late96/97 that lasted til 2003 poochie was the last killed in that war ..... I agree wen did suge have time to even try to muscle master p wen suge was going though all his shyt by the time suge got out no limit fell off in 2001 ..... They worked a deal out for snoop to sign to master p ..... in the documentary they saying p went to see suge in prison ... lies again ... it wouldn’t surprise me if suge and master p have never met in the flesh before ....

 

[Bigsuk]

Like I said, the No Limit thread was mostly people arguing back and forth, which is the main reason for the discrepancy in amount of posts. Go back and read the thread. nikkas are arguing for pages and pages.

The main thing they arguing over is master p and his huge ego or huge lies which ever it is ..... I respect what p built and his drive to become big but there has to be a time wen you got to put your ego aside ...he makes it seem like nothing he did was wrong or doesn’t want to make himself look bad or weak in the slightest... Reggie already esposed master p for his lies about confronting suge in prison lol I doubt master p has ever met suge in the flesh tbh ..... he was talking all that n still snoop got smacked up by travon Lane half his size n ran wen he was on no limit lol ....people saying but master p was on stage ... it don’t matter there should have been no limit soilders protecting snoop or by his side wen that took place ... snooo got to be the biggest bullshyter in hiphop Him and his cousin daz

 

[Alvin]

I say this as someone that grew up in Robert Taylor projects/ the Englewood neighborhood in Chicago


I dunno how the fukk some of y’all dealt with 80’s/90’s New York.


The more stories I hear from that time period I’m like

I'm reading about cabrini green now.

Those joints sound absolutely shytty, at least NYC kept theirs up to a degree.

 

[Alvin]

It's crazy to compare the Roc-a-fella situation with Ruff Ryders when comparing Jay and X. Damn near the same set up with three guys. One the rapper, one the manager/marketer, and one seemingly being the street dude and money man. Both blew off the initial artists success which then let them leverage that success into basically building a brand. I wonder if X was more reliable and not as heavy in the drugs if they would've made him part owner.

maybe, but he was a loose cannon and got lazier/more strung out after his 3rd album.

 

[Alvin]

Swizz Beatz a egg head lmao!
I feel like y'all hate on him for being a legendary producer.

 

[Alvin]

Did Po Dean do anything in the business? @FreshAIG
Was Ruff Ryders as a crew beating up nikkas like other crews? (Dipset, G-Unit, Death Row?) I'm not talking debo artist out of old situations I mean regular street shyt in NYC.

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Episode 2 and 3 were very good. Never knew it was MJB who basically got the LOX their gig. Kinda random lol.

 

[Alvin]

They should've had PK, Dame Grease & Swizz be the in-house producers instead of relying on Swizz because he was family, that fukked them up I feel

do you know who snoop connected with... by running he saved travon life. did you hear what happen to travon after this incident

 

[Marlo Barksdale]

I didn't like how the show infered that Swizz Beats produced "Slippin." It was actually produced by DJ Shok.

 

[WSFGDan]

Good series
