-That Devil called up Irv and laughed at how he will never have any success in the industry before he did the deed :wow:

-That Devil forced Murder Inc to sign a contract during their Supreme Trial stating that if they lost n went to jail, Def Jam will own all of their publishing and masters :wow:

-That Devil made calls and pulled strings to prevent lloyd from getting a number #1 album despite having the biggest song on billboard, in the streets and in the country with a 2007 prime level Wayne :wow:

I remember on def jam a few years earlier, Camron purple haze was selling on pace with Ludacris' red light district, despite luda getting a lot more promotion.

then after that, they darn near stopped promoting Camron altogether, while they REALLY pushed Ludacris.

He was a star in the neo soul movement,he had his lane:comeon:..and fukk u mean?older people by records which is probaly why he outsold Lloyd....but the more likely reason is Lloyd never was a damn star,he was a singles artist....definitly didnt have "everything" to be a star like u claimin,guess J Holiday had star power too:mjlol:

It's a damn shame because Def Jam wouldn't have been shyt with out Irv Gotti and in turn Lyor wouldn't be as respected as he is.

No Warren G and Irv Gotti, Def Jam really would have died right around the time Deathrow did. shyt people want to clown Ja Rule but they made boat loads of cash off the cookie monster. Everyone was eating off Ja and Ashanti.

What the fukk is he talking about?

How could Lyor Cohen at Warner, make Lloyd's best selling album on Universal sell 20k less?
Did he hire a telemarketing company to call people and tell them not to buy Lloyds album or what? Tell Sylvia Rhone to fukk up her bonus by fukking up the release? How did he do it?

And why the hell would a CEO of an international billion dollar company with probably 1000 artists, give a fukk about two R&B singers who weren't making any noise. Have the hottest rapper in the game on your single, and expect to move millions. Why has Flo-rida not move 2 million copies yet? That Wayne single helped him sell 150k instead of 20k like his latest album.
He should ask DMX how he managed to sell 12 million in two years without a top 20 single.

It surprises me how stupid certain people in the industry are, okay this dude has been riding his brothers wave his whole career but it's not limited to free ride people.
