:whoa: Sylvia was the real deal and Def Jam was monumental and still standing today.

i should've been more nuanced in my original post. it should have read:

the South (and West) were the first street nikkas/hustlers/rappers turned CEOs to get to the real money in rap by maintaining autonomy/ownership and not being in bed with a bunch of Jews.

someone's gonna say "b-b-but Eazy and Jerry," and you always need a Jew to sign the big checks but you catch my drift.

nikkas like J. Prince, Birdman, and Master P held on to their masters from the jump aaand those cacs still had to break bread (especially in NL and CMR's case).

meanwhile their more educated NY counterparts Bad Boy, Rocafella, Murder Inc, etc gave up half of their company and/or their masters off rip.

Wu the greatest musical group of all time but....


RZA, Rae, Meth specifically have said some ignorant and disrespectful shyt in the past about the South.


Meth still to this day says some slick shyt in interviews. I don't remember any other members specifically saying shyt like them 3 have in the past.

The real takeaway from this is ….when have you EVER seen someone challenge the Wu—-physical harm no less——and it gone unchecked :umad:

Jay Elec was deep in with the FOI. :lupe: Even the Wu ain’t want them problems

Jay Elec also one of few if any to talk greasy to Puff. Made him apologize.

Don’t believe it lol

Elevators and players balls were not only rap hits but were billboards hits.

ATLiens was platinum



The 95 source awards was in NY.

All this happened before the song with Rae.
