Simply a posse cut that was ok, stretched out too far.





















Way too far. On top of a bunch of corny stuff mixed in.

Fun Fact.

Charles Hamilton (And Nino Bless) were suppose to be in SlaughterHouse (No Lie)
There is a SH track with CH over the swagger like us beat. They never put it out.
there's so much :duck: in this thread that I won't even address some of it. (lol @ SH being signed to Amalgam Digital :dead:)


here's how it went:

*the first song called Slaguhterhouse drops ft. all the members & Nino Bless*

reaction "what if they made this a group?" :ohhh:

*first official songs by the group drop*

sohh/coli: "they'll never release an album though"

*album gets announced*

sohh/coli: "I'm calling it now, it will be pushed back multiple times"

*album drops*

sohh/coli: "They'll never release another one though"

*rumors about them signing to Shady*

sohh/coli: ":russ::russ::russ::russ: never gonna happen"

*Slaughterhouse signs to Shady*

sohh/coli: "they'll never release an album over there though, Cashis all over again"

*Slaughterhouse drops an album on Shady* (and a mixtape before the album & another one 2 years after the album)

sohh/coli: "why Slaughterhouse failed?"



the answer is that they didn't fail. Name another 'super group' where somewhat accomplished solo artists who had all been rapping for 7 to 13 years came together, lasted that long and dropped 2 albums, 2 mixtapes, an EP, bunch of songs, hopped on bunch of remixes and did bunch of radio freestyles as a group.

I'll wait...
I like you... But... When Crooked says no more SH questions in 2017, they've failed. It pisses me off how they left their fans hanging without even an explanation.
That House Rules mixtape should've been their debut album. that shyt was dope
Dope mixtape!

The problem is that you had a group made up of spittas trying to make commercial hip-hop. The only rapper who could really pull that off were Joe Budden and Royce, trying to do that with Crooked I an Joell Ortiz was just a recipe for disaster. Also Eminem's direction of them was to blame as well. Em needed to go back to being a spitta not the other way around (them becoming pop rappers).

@Young/Nacho\Drawz I get your point. My point is, if they failed, compared to what? Like what were the expectations when most "super groups" only drop a couple of songs or one album (The Firm, Random Axe etc.)

(it's unfair to mention Random Axe because they might have kept going)

Sound of hip hop changed in 2010.. first album was pretty decent but shyt came out in 09 and so far gone/live love asap/lil b SGP "cloud rap " changed the game moving forward... They came out a little too late.

Crook and joell being too bland and no personality. The 4 of em didn't seem to mix at all.. eventhough I loved the original slaughterhouse joint on buddens album. Nino bless was really good on that also. Only Joe and Royce seem like genuine homies
