Which music mogul had the best road to the richest story?

[L. Deezy]

there were labels that laid the blueprint for def jam.

not for hip hop..

Sylvia Robinson just had a lil shytty label with Sugarhill.

Def Jam was a whole different beast. Music was raw. Not rapping over disco beats.

what Im saying is DO NOT even attempt to compare rosters.. Thats what I dont want you to do

we can definitely compare rosters.

its really neither here nor there concerning the topic at hand, but we can definitely do that.

 

[L. Deezy]

lol.. no we cant.. you bumped your damn head. I wont begin to entertain a roster comparison.

anyway, my point is Def Jam rise is greater than anybody on the list in this thread.

carry on..

 

[L. Deezy]

anybody care to say Funky Four plus one is better than PE? I dont think so

and again, that's not what the OP was asking.

and when talking rosters, im comparing sugar hill to def jam at a specific point of your choosing. not the whole 30 year history.

I can play that game too.
and there were other labels as well, btw.

ok.. I think the main start up of Def Jam was T La Rock, LL, Beasties and PE.

Sugarhill had what, Grand Master Flash and Sequence and Sugarhill for the most part. Its not even fair

 

[Wacky D]

also, keep in mind, im not saying that sugar hill was better but this whole idea that Russell created everything hip-hop is revisionist & outrageous.

edit: sugar hill had more than that.

 

[L. Deezy]

Ill finish this later maybe.. leaving work

Stick to who has the best story and you'll see my point. thats all Im saying

This music (mainstream wise) was only 5, 6 years old. Russell had them selling out arenas by 86 or 87 man..lol

Not Sugarhill. They were done as a label by then

 

[L. Deezy]

so If I wanted to hear a story or wanted to see a great story, its the rise of Def Jam. Not no street nyggas who made a label and got rich quick. No Limit aint even in existence now.
