At one point he had the street and internet on lock. I listen to his mixtapes religiously.

He starting falling off after signing with Atlantic. His album keep getting pushed back.

He started doing radio interviews exposing himself as corny and posting corny stuff on the internet.

The battle with him and Joe Budden was highly entertaining.

In retrospect he was just pretty good not super dope

The first album is a near classic though, if it was missing a few tracks

Dude had a huge buzz back in the mid 00's. When he got that recurring role on Entourage I thought he was gonna blow up something serious. Then he dropped that wack ass Pain in My Life single and went thru all kinds of label bullshyt. It was pretty much a wrap after that. Greatest Story Never Told came out about 4 years later than it should have. The buzz was long gone.

I liked most of his tracks from 03-08, I like 'Pain In My Life', and the remix, I thought 'Believe It' was dope as fukk, and his album was cool, it was just too little too late. Haven't listened to anything else from him since, as far as new material.

This was hilarious though, he exposed himself through a few different mediums as kind of an obnoxious, insecure jackass....

Yeah, I thought he had next. He was sort of the complete package there for a second. Was like the NY Ice Cube.
