50 (and G Unit)would have been a star regardless
Stat Quos an interesting one... He did have a pretty good mixtape run while he was there but I guess there might have been potential without Shady
Green Lantern seemed to do just fine on his own. Although I would have loved to hear that rumored Shady album he was working on
Cashis and Creekwater probably wouldn't have gone anywhere anyway
Yela's career would probably have followed a similar trajectory, although he might have had a better debut
Yeah, Shady totally f----- up Slaughterhouse. They should have gone the Run the Jewels/Czarface route.
Surprisingly, great move for Boogie
Hoping the Griselda deal produces a similar effect as it did for Boogie. Guess we'll find out in June
overall its up and down, wouldn't say its a death blow. But generally not great.

I agree with everything Sav said, especially that Slaughterhouse part. d---, I wish they stayed independent. Their first album is one of my favorites.
You can clearly tell Paul wanted (or Em, who knows) to make them radio, whole Shady 2.0 era was kinda driven by radio plays, idk.
I just hope we gon get Glasshouse someday.

Obie should have had different singles and more of a push. Cheers is fantastic.
50 cent was the most hyped rapper to hit the scene.
Slaughterhouse were a bunch of lyrical dudes that never would if made it mainstream huge huge. Just wast there style
Yelawolf did decent. I know he gets a lot of hate on here but whatever.
Cashis county hound ep is underrated as f---.
Stat quo got over looked because of his single back in the day but he had some good s--- on his mixtapes.KING AND I, n9ne, Custommustardstain and 1 other person like this. -

Nah the fact that D12, Obie, Cashis, Bobby and Stat couldn’t carry themselves ruined their careers.
50 owes Em a lot but he would’ve been fine by himself. Not as big obviously but he woulda made it somehow.
Yela was f---ing dope as f--- before Shady, then his first album s----d, but he’s pulled it back and carried himself back to being great again.
Slaughterhouse was a disaster but Em was only trying to help. Joe Budden being a c---- ruined their chances of proving themselves and coming back.

I mean Eminem aside, Yelawolf, and slaughterhouse are crazy talented, but by nature super gritty (like EM in his younger days). Has Em's management destroyed the potential these guys could have had in the last decade?David26, hargydon, n9ne and 1 other person like this. -
