I’m guessing he didn’t want to rap with that glossy stuff puffy was producing. Who knows where he would’ve ended up if he left.

Big already looked weird in that Hypnotize video and by the time they did the 112 “Only You” remix video it was clear that Puff wanted to keep that glossy shyt going.

You would either be on board or get the Craig Mack treatment and play second fiddle to whoever was going to sing/rap over a bunch of samples.

Imagine Big with a giant shiny ass suit on in the “More Money More Problems” and dancing all over the place.

Mase seemed more than happy to do it but look at what happened to him by the time Double Up came out.

Don’t let your hatred cloud you breh lol jada has a zero pct chance in any form
I was waiting for u to quote me. I saw u in the thread. Anyway Jay is winning against any rapper in this type of setting. No one really fukkin wit him. He’s not a better raw performer and doesn’t have the comedy/charisma kiss has but he’s very clear, is razor sharp and has a lot of control. To top it off. He has JOINTS for days. His catalog speaks for itself. nikka is like a cheat code.

Dipset’s PRIME music isn’t trash just because they can’t perform don’t make the shyt trash. That said LOX was just too much for them nikkas. A group that stayed together, has great chemistry, all truly nice on the mic, has longevity, long list of bangers, and understands eachother on stage is gonna win against what the dips offered. U could see that by The Lox just performing freestyles and winning rounds against actual songs. Lol. They just have what Dips don’t.

This. Nobody should be discounting the dope music Dipset has made, it’s just unfortunate that when it came time to perform in this setting, they were totally unprepared and outclassed. They showed up looking like a group that hadn’t performed together since the Rocafella days.

facts lol they was only big locally

Wouldn't say Dipset was local but I absolutely detest how their super stans used to act like they were as big as Bone Thugs or Wu-tang. Straight delusional shyt. They had a strong movement but they was never at that level. Commercially, popularity wise, music quality wise or talent wise.
