My favourite Crew ever! Hands Down. Check The Line-up: Jay, Beans, Bleek, and State Property, with Kanye and Just Blaze on the Boards!! Dame Dash F*cked up!!
After the Nas battle and the release of The Bluerint, Hov took a welcome break to Europe. Whilst he was away Dame attempted to promote Cam'ron to Vice-President of Roc-a-Fella but Jay wasnt felling that coz Beans and Bleek had been down wit the Roc for longer. Forget the other stories this was the first indication of cracks in the Roc.
After that Dame tried to throw his weight around by signing random dudes to The R.O.C: Twista, O.D.B, M.O.P, Joe Budden, Posh Spice (W.T.F!!). Dude was ruining the reputation of a reputed rap label.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
However, Beans has announced that he is still signed with The R.O.C so the '07 line up consists of: Jay, Bleek, Freeway, Beans, The Young Gunz, Tru Life and Uncle Murda.
If Jay plays this right he has a deadly army of Hardcore Eastcoast spitters to balance against the R'n'B and Southern Rap that Def Jam have been successful promoting.
Beanie Sigel is Fire, Bleek is underated, Freeway has a deadly flow (Peep the links), Young Chris of The Young Gunz is a Problem, Tru Life is an Improving M.C and Uncle Murda is Too Believable.
The Next step for Jay-Z should be to round up his troops and do another Hot 97 Takeover on either the Flex or Angie Show. Shut down NY City, Take out Diplomats once and for all, and set up anticipation for the upcoming albums from Beanie, Freeway and Bleek. Then Jay can shut sh*t down and release an album influenced by hunger of the M.C's around him.
