3.- believe it or not... but black star's record label prior to RAWKUS was indeed DEATH ROW. interesting, huh?

 

 

I'm going to have to call bullshit on this one. It's just going to be internet gossip to me until I see or hear a solid argument other than, "Rawkus doesn't want you to know."

^^I know that they were on some Priority label before they moved to Rawkus (whom Priority also owned), I just didn't think that it was Death Row. The last Emperor was also on Priority and then, later, Rawkus, for a short time. He was supposed to relase his solo on Rawkus, but I guess the shit didn't work out.

Hey websteruno, yeah, KRS IS the fucking man, always has been, always will be, but you can't hate on Blackstar for "sampling" his song. That's just Kweli and Mos giving props to the guy. I know for a fact that Kweli is a HUGE fan of KRS. That son is sick. Just think about how the other lyrics in "hip-hop" songs were around 1998. East/West bullshit, and the bling era was beginning. The lyrics to that song were just what hip-hop needed at the time "123 mos def and talib kweli/we came to rock it on to the tip top/ too much violence in hip-hop waaaaaaiiiiooo/ I said 123 it's kinda dangerous to be an emcee/ they shot tupac and biggie/ hols your head when the beat drop waaaaaiiiiioooooooo" and for the record, Mos and Kweli have no beef. If you recall, they featured each other on their solo CD's, and another Blackstar CD is due sometime soon.....

MOS DEF AND TALIB KWELI ARE BLACKSTAR IS STRAIGHT CLASSIC...........
