Hip Hop is missing cats like Irv Gotti who know the business in and out; what it means to promote, A&R and run a record label.

DMX can't stand him but I bet he wouldn't front on Irv' work ethic. Irv helped DMX out a lot. I think DMX's beef is more with Ja Rule than it is Irv anyway.

I remember that XXL issue where they did the group interview with Russell, Rubin, Lyor and Liles where they touched on Irv Gotti VERY briefly, but made it sound like they had nothing but the utmost respect for him, if not a fear for his talent.
For real. I think the interviewer brought his name up, one of them was like "Irv Gotti is a baaaaad motherfukker." Russell was like "Irv Gotti, dude's a fukking shark." lmao then they went to the next question.
I also vaguely remember them flat out saying Redman singlehandedly saved Def Jam from going under, but that's another story (possibly)....

No one respects Suge, never did.And Suge
They feared him, people respected Meech, Irv and Prince and in 2012 people still respect them even though none of them are really winning (excl J Prince).
