canuckamuck Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 So he gets to be called the best earning performer because he allowed his name to be used on a product? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveAustin Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 ^^ He co-founded and was a big part of developing the product. Also rakes in huge amounts from multiple albums of course. I'm not a lover of hip-hop, but, at least compared to a lot of the tat around nowadays, he produced some quality stuff. He was also the dude that 'recognized' Eminem... not that the dinosaurs on here could care less. Anyone who's seen Training Day might recognize him. Quality fella if you ask me.
