"WHAT IF": HIP HOP EDITION

-What if Tupac stayed in NY

-What if Eazy E never died

-What if Biggie smashed Erykah Badu instead of Andre

-What if Aaliyah got with Jay-z instead of Beyoncé

-What if 50 Cent blew up in the 90’s instead of 00’s

-What if Eminem never met Dre

-What if Ice Cube didn’t release Friday

Last question…what if Jay-Z NEVER became president of Def Jam and ended up ruining everyone’s careers except Kanye’s..
 
I remember an old Dame Dash interview where he said he had both Eminem and Nelly demos and passed on both. What if he had signed them. Wonder what the legacy of The Roc looks like in the 2000s with them two on the roster
 
Similar to the Marvel's "What If" series...but I wanted to do a hip hop version instead.

WHAT IF...Rza signed Wu Tang to Def Jam, and Meth signed wit Loud Records instead? Would the Wu still have blown up being in Def Jam?

What would a Meth's solo album have sounded like wit Loud?

Honestly...I think Wu Tang and Meth's solo would've still blown da fucc up regardless. They came in at the right time imo. Right at the beginning of the Golden Era of hip hop.

We may not have gotten that run we got between Enter the 36 Chambers and Wu Forever. Def Jam wanted control of all the solo albums too, so they might have slow rolled things. They kinda covered that in the show.
 
What If Lupe fiasco dropped the original version of Lasers on Atlantic?

What if Jay Electronica signed with Bad Boy and got a full roll out with Diddy to be the next Biggie?

What if Lil Wayne original Carter 3 didn't leak?

It's arguable that the Original Carter 3 was his best and most ambitious album he ever created. ( Something you forgot, Scarface, I feel like dying)
 
What If:


NWA never broke up............and Dr. Dre produced Ice Cube's 1st 3 albums.


What would those albums sound like?


Thought about this back in the day and, as good as those albums were, they'd be better if Dre produced them.

Can't help but bump this what if underground track from Rawkus Records Soundbombing part 1



"You gotta plan then we rollin
don't waste my time
There is land that is stolen which is rightfully mine
What if slavery never happened and we was never colonized?
What if governments never lied and white folks apologized?" Talib Kweli

Another thing I thought of......which should've been obvious............is how many more NWA albums would we have?


And what would their 2nd album sound like?


How much different would it have sounded than Niggaz4Life?


Since Cube wrote his lyrics, how many more Eazy-E albums would we have?


What would Dre's solo albums sound like if Cube wrote them?


Would Dre have even discovered Snoop if NWA never broke up?


So many questions.................so many scenarios.
