[quote="#1baller"][quote="neocon_2007"]I didnt catch the first part
"Diddys another beat jacker, except he takes an exert and loops it no skill."
That's tha beat jacker that made tha careers of Mase, Mary J Blige, 112, Faith Evans, Tha Lox, and Notorious B.I.G ( an icon).
Hmnnnn....that ain't bad is it?
"Again both these individuals got more then just beat making, and thats being business minded."
Diddy is first and foremost a shrewd and got more out of the business side of it not Kanye. West had no input in the day to day running of Def Jam/Rocafella records [/quote]
Again theres many factors involved in the success of these two indviduals. Both were hustlers, business men playing a different game during different times. Kanye has his own Imprint, Diddy started the same after he was fired from the first label he was running, cant recall the name. There two apples in the same basket, there egoitistical opportunist. After that Katrina situation Kanye really made a name for himself, genius.
