Great analysis. Jay z longevity and consistency. 50 cent gangster hip hop similar to DMX was phased out by UMG.

Why did he leave out the part that Graduation was like 20x better than Curtis? Where’s the accountability? His album was a dud, Graduation was a classic

50 Cent reflects on dropping his album "Curtis" on the same day that Ye released "Graduation," claiming that JAŸ-Z did everything he could at Def Jam to make sure Ye won the first-week sales battle: "I lost to Def Jam...

50 Cent says that Jay-Z has never dominated Hip Hop with music, and that it took Jay to become a music executive at Def Jam to beat him (in 2007 during the Kanye sale battle) - "Reasonable Doubt... that album charted at #23... he never had those moments like that... Ja Rule was selling more records than Jay-Z, DMX was selling more records than Jay-Z... just wasn't as marketable as those artists..." (via Flagrant Podcast)

Pusha T & Malice speak on leaving Def Jam after the label wanted to block Kendrick Lamar's feature on "Chains & Whips" 👀 "This record was crucial because it was actually, this is what kind of sparked the label drama. For those who don't know, we were on Def Jam. Def Jam is a subsidiary of Universal. While the whole drama was going on, the Drake-Kendrick drama, and the drama with myself, you know, years prior..." "So, of course, Kendrick heard the record and was like, 'Yo, I wanna get on it.' Everyone was gung-ho to put the album out. We come back with that record, at that particular time with that feature, and the label just kinda pushed the brakes on everything." (Via GRAMMY Museum)

50 Cent DEBATES with Andrew Schulz’s co-host AlexxMedia over Jay-Z, claiming Hov NEVER dominated rap musically like people think and used his LABEL to put himself among the GREATS, before saying Jay-Z NEVER beat him and did EVERYTHING to make sure Kanye West could 😳👀 “Jay-Z is significant and a phenomenal artist, but even better at maneuvering himself into that position without the music actually doing it. They did every f-cking thing, they unloaded the bank, to get that Kanye record into a good space. Then it worked.”

Big Sean says he sold 185 million records on Kanye West's label, and $6 million of his money went to that label instead of him. In 2021, Kanye said signing him was "the worst thing I've ever done." In the video below, Big Sean explains how he chased that money for years. Kanye signed him to GOOD Music in 2007. Sean was a kid from Detroit, signing with his favorite artist. He says the deal paid Kanye more from his music than it paid him. "I'm not complaining about that. It's just a fact." Then he audited Def Jam. "Every time I audit Def Jam, there's money sitting there." The numbers didn't add up. "Where's my $6 million?" Def Jam said the money had been paid a long time ago. To GOOD Music. "Oh, you got to hit up Ye for that." Nobody gave him a straight answer. After Kanye's "worst thing" line, Sean answered on Twitter: not 3 million, "more like 6." The case for Kanye: he gave an unknown rapper a deal and a career. Sean says it himself. Signing with GOOD Music was "the best thing that could have happened to me." In the end, Sean took less than he was owed, just to stay out of court. "If I've ever called you family, I really mean that. If you do something like that to me, it's hard for me to ever look at you the same." Then this September, Kanye brought him out on stage at Soldier Field in Chicago. One man sold 185 million records. The other man's label got his $6 million. So did Kanye make Big Sean, or did Big Sean make Kanye money?
