Very Extensive, most of the key players talk. El-P even.
I heard rumors The Rose Family went in there and beat up all of Rawkus and stuff, everyone in the building, and that's why they started adding security up there. Headqcourterz did street promo for them—he was family to the whole Gang Starr Foundation, Biggest Gord and Premo, that was their people—and he took a job up at Rawkus doing street promo and kinda watching their backs too.
I thought it was G Rap who caused them to up security til now.

I liked it. It was like reading liner notes.

Good read. Mentioned a few songs in there that I've never heard of. Also gave some more insight into Funcrusher, Black Star, and IA which are some of my favorite albums.

Always grateful to have the Rawkus brand attached to my efforts.

They failed to sign Em, Kanye, Common and could have signed Pitbull. Are we sure they went to Brown?

None of them would have been anywhere near as famous. Literally none. I think they are all thankful they didn't go with Rawkus.
