50 was everywhere on the east coast with the mix tape game.

This is how it works, artists gains a following and then the label takes them to a larger market.

Which is exactly what my point is; 50 was a homerun for Em and Dre.

His following was so large, all they had to do is put out one hit, which they undeniable did.

Not to mention, Wanksta was a hit before Dre.

But to give Dre credit for bringing in 50 in my opinion is disrespectful to Em and 50.
