i want to thank all yall bx heads for participating in the thread and ronnie for keeping it a sticky, in my opinion this became the best thread ive ever read on the net period and defines what boxden is really about. many, many websites copied what we posted and even an alleged hip hop insider addressed all the sh*t we put up (google "hip hop facts and events" and check it out)For yall that dont kno our facts and rumors have influenced hip-hop and some have been addressed by ur favorite rappers(50 cent, jay-z, jim jones etc.) even mc serch confirmed that large professor did try to run up on him, but he was only 3 deep and serch didnt jump a wall lol.

im dry right now i got no birdies in my ear but ill keep it going soon enough, few more months and this thread will be 4 years old:applause::applause::applause:

this part of the thread was taken from an old thread @ sohh, i read it a long time ago & this sh*t was so interesting, i had to add it to my favorites :D

if menacesquad is on here, major props



Some of these are rumors, and some are very true

-LL Cool J and Kool Moe Dee came to blows one night backstage.

-Freddie Foxxx put a gun in Benzino's mouth on the Flavor Unit tour bus, because Benzino would not stop talking **** about what a thug he was

-"The bridge is over" was a Marley Marl beat that Krs One and Scott La Rock found in a studio.

-2pac was robbed and shot by some of Supreme's boys.

-"I got a story to tell" was vaguelly based on a real life incident Biggie had when he was slipping pipe to John Starks' woman.

-Paul C was murdered by his wife and his brother.

-Showbiz has almost been sent upstate for attempted murder twice.

-Big Pun hit Jay Z over the head with a bottle in a club.

-Eric. B beat down Large Professor and ran Kool G. Rap out of New York to Arizona after 'G. Rap revealed Large Pro produced most of the beats Eric B was supposed to have done on the Eric B. & Rakim albums and "wanted dead or alive".

-Biz Markie produced most of EPMD's first album.

-Ghostface, Superb and their team beat down and robbed 50 Cent and Tony Yayo after 50's dis tracks.

-Johnny Juice did all Terminator X's cuts on the Public Enemy albums.

Kool Keith met Godfather Don outside some industry event that both of them weren't allowed entry to. They snuck in through a back window and then hung out for the next month or so recording the 'Don produced tracks on "the 4 horsemen" and, of course, all the classic Cenobites tracks.

-Just Ice was a prime suspect in a murder case.

-Just Ice turned up in Queens on Poet's block after the two Rockwell Noel & The Poet tracks dissing Krs One, Red Alert and Ms. Melodie with a shotgun and waited for Poet to come out. Needless to say, Poet stayed in the crib that day.

-DJ Ready Red was kicked out of Geto Boys and shafted by J. Prince because of his lack of melanin.

-Alpo, Fritz, the original 50 Cent from Ft Greene and various other notorious hustlers/killers from the legendary Paid In Full Posse were in the crew shots on "paid in full" and "follow the leader".

-Rakim recorded a dis cut aimed at 'Kane for "let the rhythm hit 'em" and had a verse on the title track itself aimed at him. 'Kane heard about this and called Rakim to squash it and Rakim went on to scrap the track and remove the verse.

-Eric B. did security for Mike Tyson throughout much of the 90's.

-Diamond D and his old late 80's group Ultimate Force with Master Rob recorded a full album with Jazzy Jay which has never been heard.

-A young Fat Joe and his boys Tony Montana(R.I.P) and Charlie Rock L.D were one of the top two crack crews in the Bronx in the mid 80's and bringing in thousands of $$$$ per day.

-Q Tip got fuked up so bad by one of the members of Wrexx N Effect that he lost partial sight in one of his eyes. ****EDIT***^^^^^very true^^^^^

-Nas came incredibly close to being on the Large Pro produced Kool G Rap, Xtra P, Freddie Foxxx and Ant posse cut "money in the bank" as he was always hangin' around Eric B.'s studio but had gone to pick up some weed with a chick so they let the Ant kid on there instead.

- Main Source (sans Large Pro) ran up in the Wild Pitch offices with machetes looking to behe*d MC Serch (then working as an A&R for the label) after a West Coast promotional tour went ****ty. MC Serch got wind that they were coming and escaped by crawling over the partial walls for his office and jetting out the back door.

- Grimm was supposed to be on "Live at the Barbecue" but he was arrested on the way to the studio.
"Ya'll don't write, you pay for airplays and rhymes of the month
A risin' star, I don't respect you cuz I do my own stunts
The rap world is run by morons, dudes who don't get it
that's why I simplify and cater to the dimwitted"
This is old as hell. There's like a 100+ page thread on this with way more sh*t.

bone thugs n harmony claims jerry heller was in the jewish mob and used to extort eazy. they say things got crazy after eazy finally fired jerry heller. it was then, easy got a bad cold and jerry heller reffered him to his doctor. bone especially krayzie bone says they put the aids fix on eazy. thats wat krayzie said...true story

dr dre did not sign the contract to produce above the law's black mafia life, ideas and certain songs were stolen to make the album the chronic. it was always argued dre made up the term g funk, in fact it was above the law, u can also hear 2pac, the 1st non ruthless records feature, say it on the track call it wat u want.

Kokane and cold 187um of above the law made a diss track in 94 on kokanes funk upon a thyme called dont bite the phunk, dissin kurupt(he dissed kokane on smokin on blunts and drinkin tanqueray), cold 187um dissed dre & snoop.

kam did not f*ght ice cube, in fact it was his homie big solo, the dude who says 50 cent fool, in the movie the wash to dj pooh. they did a reenactment on the video whoop whoop where kam disses ice cube. when solo and cube fought the westside charm fell off. solo won by the way

the track for the love of money was not originally made by bone thugs n harmony, it was a track from 1991 from the ruthless records group, yomo and maulkie. which u can hear deathrow artist jewell sing the hook before she left the label.

2pac was paid 500,000 to do/or have the track pour out a lil liquor for the above the rim sdtrk by suge knight

rapper former hit squad member k-solo was signed to deathrow at one point

RBX and suge knight almost fought....over a bucket of chicken...lol true story

mc ren was originally suppose to be on california love track

ice cube and del the funkee homosapien are cousins

flava flav and the rza just recently found out they are cousins

the dj for jj fad, dj train, was best friends with mc ren. he died in a house fire thinkin his son was still in there. u can see him as the main character of the video single for mc ren's same ol sh*t

cpo boss hogg aka lil nation was once signed to mc ren

Treach did some ghostwriting for eazy-e(check the tracks only if u want it, nuts on yo chin, and hit the hooker, u can hear the influence)
this was around the time hip hop hooray came out where u can see eazy-e in the video in New Jersey

Naughty by nature produced 3 eazy-e tracks

Sources say former death Row artist Sam sneed was beaten by pac and few others for sayin he did not know dr dre's lover, other sources say he was beaten for havin eastcoast rappers in his video.(thats wat they say)

Former NWA member Arabian Prince did make an album in 1993 called Where's My Bytches tryin to use the dr dre synthesizer formula.

Hussein Fatal of the outlawz was actually supposed to perform alongside the group and pac but was denied entry into the house of blues cause the found a gun on him. therefore u dont see him durin that performance.

Hussein Fatal helped sing the hook of Hail Mary ("if its on then its on...")

Lady of rage at 1st did not like the beat to Afro Puffs for the fact she likes more of a eastcoast sound.
dj premier did 2 beats off her album Necessary Roughness.

Dr. Dre is well known for being a fraud.

He's only a "producer" in a figurative sense. He's like the conductor in an orchestra. He ain't making sh|t but just tells everyone what to do. It says more stuff like that in his biography.


Out of all his music, he's only done about a good 19-20% of the beats/rhymes. This is why his albums take so long to come out. A lot of people don't wanna be used as a ghostwriter and/or don't wanna contribute to a project they know will blow up n then end up not being given any credit.

please continue
