[Eastside Get The Money]

Wayne stole that nikka beat and it was never the same after that

Which beat was this?

This song was everywhere in 07, I got put on by listening to Mike Jones and people telling me to listen to this instead

Aside from the Houston beef stuff, a lot of the sophomore shyt flopped. That My 64 song w the Eazy sample and Snoop feature probably wasnt cheap for the label and didnt blow up. Also theres this one Paul Wall interview talking about Mike Jones doing studio sessions with Swizz and other huge producers and kind of blowing them off, Kanye said MIke didnt want any of his beats either, label probably just saw it as not worth it anymore and he burned his hometown buzz so never came back from it

I'm still mad Mike Jones didn't never drop this full track



I asked him months ago about it on Instagram and he said it's coming soon

 

[get these nets]

Nah, his star power was based on hit records and the buzz he was able generate for himself. That's only sustained by continuing to make hit records.

Mike album SUCKED, thats why the industry stopped fuccing with him. I remember having a copy of that shyt. The only good songs was the singles.

Who is mike Jones album was pretty good. I just think the beefs killed the momentum. Hell you had slim on a hit Beyoncé record and couldn't capitalize off it, even had Neptunes giving him beats. Crabs in a barrel mentality and face siding with TI wasnt a good look

Mr. Jones was the lead single from The American Dream......it didn't hit, on top of him dropping it long after his buzz died down on a national level.

He had all the right elements to make the song take off, sounded good in the speakers/club, sing songy hook...and it could've been an anthem for the losers/bums who finally got themselves some motion.

Wayne saw how he didn't do what he should've done with the beat, took it and that's that.

It's crazy how Houston/Texas fumbled their momentum

On top of that, other rappers/regions hijacked their style and ran with it

That album was very good, including having some deeper cuts better than some of the singles

Who is Mike Jones is a personal classic to me,I still listen to it a lot

I was a big Mike Jones fan and I even ordered his movie from circuit city back in the day

When you’re a one hit wonder you gotta back it up on your follow up album real quick before your buzz dies

When your a rapper and you don’t make your own beats your success is out of your control

He had multiple hits and buzzing songs, but the rest of that is correct. The stuff heading into his second album just wasn’t hitting like it should have
