Mecca is deliberately painting a narrative that J Hood don't know what he talking about by constantly having a rebuttal to everything J Hood say. Mecca didn't question Styles P like that, he let P tell his story.
The issue is Dre was signing every hot NY act making them write for him and then shelving them. Only 50 & Gunit popped off and that was off the strength of EM. Later on slaughterhouse - but for years joell ortiz was there without getting a dre album he signed Rakim dropped that CRAZY contagious single and then Ra never dropped we talking RAKIM lol who had a single with CRAZY buzz. Dre likes having mc's like hustlers collect cars
@@ILLCLAPYOCHEEKSBOIFacts and on top of that Dre gets too much credit at times. He got the bulk of the credit for Doggystyle even on beats that Daz produced, and he got tons of credit back in the day for All Eyes On Me only for people to find out he only did two songs on both discs combined. And he never produced a single song for Kendrick on any of his albums
@Mrhayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy do you think J Hood is flat out lying about the $60K? You must, because there is no way you feel the same people that took that $$ from him were also doing their best to "protect" him from Dre. On top of that, sure sounds like D-Block did a great job of shelving him as well!
Thank you first and foremost to Math for bringing on 2 artist that had great starts and disappeared but are still around to give real insight on their own careers. But J Hood was my guy in HS!!! Mr "sink the boat on your nautica"!! Salute the entire podcast and everyone involved in this coming together! Much love respect and keep grinding and aspiring!!
@@mathamatix582 This is supposed to be an interview and not a cross-examination like Hood is on trial here. Secondly on more than one occasion he's come across as arrogant and self-important like he's some insider Mr Know-It-All like nobody else's views matter. He's a cornball and notice...he didn't have all that smoke when P was in the building telling his side so you see what kind of person he is.
Mecca has been a clown from day one. He's been turning some of these interviews into debates. He talks too much. And when he does speak, he zaps the energy out of the conversation.
@@snoopy4749 & I liked J-Hood, but once he walked away from D-Block, he had no hustle, no fire, being entitled because he was pumped in a group. I would have bought his album if it was anounced but it wasn't. He quit the game on his own terms.
@@TriplomatX No doubt, no doubt J-Hood had the talent and the bars to propel himself in the game even without the LOX/D-Block co-sign. I think after that video of him dragging the D-Block chain came out and the disrespect he showed while doing it, it was over for him and apologising for it almost 2 decades just seems more like a PR stunt for clout instead of a genuine show of remorse.
I'd take those Dr. Dre publishing/writing checks over whatever "residuals" Jae Hood's getting nowadays lol. Hittman got shelved at Aftermath too, but I bet he's still eatin' off those Chronic 2001 publishing and royalty checks.
@@MichaelBrown-ti1unyou really think Dre giving up publishing rights? especially back then when nominees knew the actual the true value of publishing lol Hood was barely 21 you really think anyone had his best interest at heart or were they following a business model that had been jerking folks forever
I said this before and quite a few times on this platform Math and his people constantly act like they know better than the people who they are interviewing as if they were there it's irritating as hell.
I do not disagree with this. I obviously do not know all of the inter-connections within the industry, but they come off as old heads acting like they understand everything. Only thing they’re missing is 40 oz Old English
Dre had Eve and The Last Emperor (another Philly MC) signed to Aftermath and he never did anything w them. Eve asked to be released, signed to Ruff Ryders and blew up. The Last Emp eventually left and did a few indie projects but never blew (despite Mos Def saying he was his favorite MC). Still, J Hood people were supposed to tell him that Dre was interested and let him make the final decision
Last emp still layn down wrk beloved, check lord of the flys ep, n jungle Jim ....but u dead right bout aftermath Rakim was there 2 @ tht time nothing Waz produced...

Sheek quote I dont know about hood we won't be able to control him if he blows. Now guys this is a speech that head executives or even the Elites would say. It all about control this is why rappers needs to be independent.
I'm feeling some type of way with this J Hood interview. Seems like he (J) was being attacked by everybody. Hood was young minded we have to keep in mind. There's more details we not hearing but the energy Mec and Math giving was ehhh
The point is you don't withhold or block opportunities from someone like that regardless especially when y'all ain't droppin his album smh maybe Dre would've shelved him or he could've blew up like Game did u never know
Yea Mecca can be insightful at times but sometimes he either comes off as trying to be the smartest in the room or just super biased when it comes to the industry. He’s low key snobby towards rappers who don’t hold a certain status industry wise. I literally just watched his interview with Melly Mell/Grandmaster Caz and became super annoyed at how he was looking at his phone while Melly Mell was talking. It was low key disrespectful.
Mecca one of those dudes that comes back to the hood after slaving away at his office job thinking he better than everyone cuz he 'gets a check' - goofy
The refrigerator comment was hilarious 🤣. They abuse this cat and stole all his money and he still talking bout giving them the benefit of the doubt. That's different
Salute math blessings to you and the crew, happy holidays and respect to J hood speaking like a mature man… respect always from Bushwick Brooklyn ✌🏽🙏🏽💪🏽
This is the furthest I've Ever heard J-Hood speak about the Facts that weren't Clear Until Now..i Commend Ya for the interrogative questions without pressing..just intellectually chess playing.💪🏾🙌🏿
Mecca being dismissive of what another man is telling him shows his confirmation bias. He is not under duress, yet he chooses to think like a lawyer instead of a scientist.
Worked for Snoop (Dre was rapping prior), Nicki Minaj, as much I’d hate to say, drake. Worked for Da Brat, Kris Kross, Bow Wow. It also worked Kanye, Big Sean, Pusha T, Kid Cudi, Travis Scott… Gunna, until the RICO. It’s plenty more I could name cause so many of these Artist come from a few other Artists trees.
@@kreativepley5010 Yeah, cause J.Hood was poppin’ on em early 2000s mixtapes (2000/2001/2002) right before Lil Wayne started his ’Squad Up’ clique, which was before Wayne started getting into the punchline style of rhyming). J.Hood was the reason a lot of niggas switched to the punchline style, rappin’ 50 bar verses on mixtapes. J.Hood & Cassidy had mfs using that style, then Banks came along, Juelz, etc. Lil Wayne was out before all of them but, in 2000-2001, etc. he was still developing with that style of rap, he wasn’t a dope solo artist yet. Lil Wayne didn’t lyrically start getting dope until he put together’Squad Up’, right before the, Too Hot For TV / Smack DVD era.
@@trizzmatic413 lil Wayne was better in the early years with hot boys and big tymers era. His flow was better the whole style was better. I get people like the 2010s Wayne but I felt the late 90s and 2000s Wayne was better, but that's also my era and opinion.
@@theconsigliere8463 I’m from the Hot Boyz era too but, Wayne’s flow was really choppy & and he didn’t have much style or substance. One thing he always had though was charisma & star quality. If that means anything.

Might b about time math get real crafty n start doin some of these interviews by himself.. I solely watch 4 the guest.. don't care about the life experiences of his co-host as it pertains 2 the interview
Math up there like Fisher Price I got my first chain shaking it , holding it flexing for the cam pretending like he ain't on it like that. Bruuuuh we see you got a piece congrats my dude lmao 😂🤣😂🤣 WE SEE WHAT U WORSHIPPIN...
If it’s new it’s probably annoying him being on his neck . New jewelry is a little annoying until you get used to it . I don’t think he trynna flex 😂😂😂 chill out , you said fisher price. I be using that line lol
@@nekneversleep thats what i was bout to say. Even a new jacket or shoes. You gotta get used to it. Plus if he has adhd or ocd it could just be a comfort thing.
I’m listen very close to ur show math an I can see everyone talks the same n mentions the same names everyone but I can’t help but listen and feel like one name is missing I don’t know who it is but it has to be a groping of people who are shelving these greats from us as much as possible which really shaped things today. Wicked !,,!
LISTEN JHOOD NEVER HAD MAINSTREAM POTENTIAL..HE WAS A STREET RAPPER WHO FOCUSED ON HARD BARS WHICH IS COOL NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT....BUT TO BE A STAR U NEED THE LOOK,THE SONGS AND MOST IMPORTANTLY YOU GOTTA HAVE A SOUND .....
Honestly with the new Format not feeling Mecca, he seems so industry driven or industry bias. kind of the reason why our culture is stagnant, gate keeper engery
Sad how he got side walled. You would think dblock would have did more than again its only one side to the story MATH we need SHEEK up there to give the other half of the story lets go !!!
Because his buzz died down. Believe it or not it happens to most artists. How many labels are checking for Nelly today, and he was multiple platinum with his first 3 albums. Especially being a newer artist, when that buzz dies down its a wrap no matter what. Think about all the rappers who came and went once the streets stop talking.
@@therealtoreal right labels want to make money or at least break even off a artist and that’s only possible if they have a buzz and strong core fan base. After Hood left D Block he lost like 80% of his core fan base then him not being able to maintain his industry relationships because they feared the loss of business opportunity with the lox, wasn’t nobody signing hood. G Unit only showed interest because they were beefing with D Block when hood tried to sign.

Mecca is such a industry biased his mindset is totally with the machine unless your a big dawg in the game
I get that about Him too!
Mecca feels like he can talk down to J hood, that's why he kept refuting everything Hood would say, I wish he would tried that with styles or yayo
Exactly...He is making all these excuses
He does this for balance.
He's a cornball and a failed rapper

Yeah Mecca sounds like he feel some type of way
We need a sheek louch interview!!!
sorry Uncle Luke is next!

First chain he not used to chains you can tell
Might b about time math get real crafty n start doin some of these interviews by himself.. I solely watch 4 the guest.. don't care about the life experiences of his co-host as it pertains 2 the interview
Well we finally hearing what’s going on
This is crazy! J hood need to sue!
Yea math 😈😈😈😈🥋
Math up there like Fisher Price I got my first chain shaking it , holding it flexing for the cam pretending like he ain't on it like that. Bruuuuh we see you got a piece congrats my dude lmao 😂🤣😂🤣 WE SEE WHAT U WORSHIPPIN...
If it’s new it’s probably annoying him being on his neck . New jewelry is a little annoying until you get used to it . I don’t think he trynna flex 😂😂😂 chill out , you said fisher price. I be using that line lol
I was thinking the same shit 😂
@@nekneversleep thats what i was bout to say. Even a new jacket or shoes. You gotta get used to it. Plus if he has adhd or ocd it could just be a comfort thing.
Aye you peep how they got them flag’s throughout the shop now 🥴
nah he just used to yappin ish , its reverse ptsd😂
Mecc just asking the in depth questions
Is Mec paid off? Lol
I’m listen very close to ur show math an I can see everyone talks the same n mentions the same names everyone but I can’t help but listen and feel like one name is missing I don’t know who it is but it has to be a groping of people who are shelving these greats from us as much as possible which really shaped things today. Wicked !,,!
Shai face when he start talking about Dre 😂😂😂😂
Why he make that face 🤣 😂 💀 😂😂 😭
@@couldbeanyone8174 probably cause they did the same thing to him with jayz
@@sontwisted because he didn’t believe him!!!
Math nobody taking your chain lmfao stop holding it like that 🤣
This dude Mecca blames all the artist that might not punch the face the face of him it seems
LISTEN JHOOD NEVER HAD MAINSTREAM POTENTIAL..HE WAS A STREET RAPPER WHO FOCUSED ON HARD BARS WHICH IS COOL NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT....BUT TO BE A STAR U NEED THE LOOK,THE SONGS AND MOST IMPORTANTLY YOU GOTTA HAVE A SOUND .....
Facts. This just another street rat swarming
Honestly with the new Format not feeling Mecca, he seems so industry driven or industry bias. kind of the reason why our culture is stagnant, gate keeper engery
Nah. Yall niggas just gullible and believe every word a person say on the internet. Hood is capping but yall eating it up lol
J hood put on
Sad how he got side walled. You would think dblock would have did more than again its only one side to the story MATH we need SHEEK up there to give the other half of the story lets go !!!
"Why'd you let it sit?" Erm... Cos he was a teenager and they were the fuckin LOX lol
Then how come Dre didn’t sign him later on then🤔
Because his buzz died down. Believe it or not it happens to most artists. How many labels are checking for Nelly today, and he was multiple platinum with his first 3 albums. Especially being a newer artist, when that buzz dies down its a wrap no matter what. Think about all the rappers who came and went once the streets stop talking.
@@therealtoreal right labels want to make money or at least break even off a artist and that’s only possible if they have a buzz and strong core fan base. After Hood left D Block he lost like 80% of his core fan base then him not being able to maintain his industry relationships because they feared the loss of business opportunity with the lox, wasn’t nobody signing hood. G Unit only showed interest because they were beefing with D Block when hood tried to sign.
