Timbo jumped off the porch with working with Aaliyah?? already a star (she had a big radio hit and was on TV)
Dre jumped off the porch working with Easy E and then Snoop who both already was a star or had notoriety
Pharrell jumped off the porch working with Diddy or something, maybe Mystikal I think (who also had notoriety) then we got a "Grindin" from the Clispe after he was already in the game.
Fresh jumped out the gate working with a Pimp, (RIP Pimp Daddy) convicted felons (UNLV) a heroin addict at the age 14 (BG) Wayne 11 years old (couldn't curse in his raps), Juvenile who was a "bounce" artist on the local scene, Baby who hadn't really took rap serious, just wanted to clean up his dope money. Turk, well it's Turk..
Fresh jumped off the porch with this hand dealt to him, a bunch of nobodies, niggas from Projects
What "unknown" artist to the world (any from the rap game, I'll even let you pick on the RB side of the game) has either Dr Dre, Timbo, Pharell produced a full album of their own tracks for this unknown artist, a 16 track album, and their album sold either gold or platinum?
I'll wait on that one Lol and then if you find an artist, did they go gold or platinum multiple times of their production
You don't get no credit building something that already has a legs and hot..Them dude for the most work with who is hot at the time..Mannie was putting out heat for niggas that couldn't even get through the studio session without shooting up Lol.
