I gotta read Stiffed. I read the book Tommy James from the shondells wrote:



Morris Levy is involved in both stories. But yeah, some kid that got fired from sweeping floors continuing to show up and get a shot at working with big-time artists...you didn't get those kinds of second chances unless you knew or were related to someone with some influence. Probably be liable to get your ass beat and thrown out. Jimmy presents it in an aw shucks way but it's not hard to read between the lines.


All these guys were plugged in with the Italian families "back home" which is NYC...jimmy iovine is from Brooklyn...so is walter tetnikoff who ran cbs/sony/def jam ...tommy mottola from the bx.....along with Freddie demann from bk they all crossed paths with the Original Gangsta of the Music publishing game Morris Levy who is the GLUE that binds all these associations together and the notorious Franceze family which made the Music Industry a mobsters paradise...

Jimmy Iovine wasn't able to secure these positions without being "vouched" for by the "family" .....especially if it was MCA related

question since i only seen half of one episode and turned it off immediatly realizing this was gonna be some bullshyt...

did they speak at anytime about BILLIONAIRE Ted Fields the original founder of INTERSCOPE COMMUNICATIONS the media empire which had numerous radio and tv stations along with newspapers and a film company and set the foundation for FOX under Rupert Murdoch whom made a bid for a number of networks operting under the INTERSCOPE banner?

Ted rarely talks to the media..always insisting "he doesn't wanna be famous" :patrice:

So Puff on the drink champs podcast denies Suge was talking about him at the source awards... And here he's taking a long pause like he some tough guy who had to restrain himself. So what is it?

On another note I wished they went more in detail with Deathrow, part 3 was the most intriguing because of it.
How can puff say Suge wasn't talking about him when he said "I'm the executive producer somebody made a comment about" at the same awards show?

Ya if you remember earlier on the interviewer said they could go as far back as they wanted to the most recent, maybe they didn't want to mention the 50 shyt on purpose
That's what I feel like.
They purposely left him out.

I mean how the fukk they gunna jump from Em to Kendrick and not go in depth into 50 at all :dahell:

I do remember 50 having a problem a few years back with them wanting him to have Beats Headphones in his music video when he had his own and he was saying shyt about Iovine on social media.

Ya I remember that too, and this was made a few years ago so maybe there was still tension at the time
