Stat fucked up on another level too, he unintentionally got Em offended with a stupid joke, about a single of theirs. He had great chances but couldn't deliver. All his fault.
Em worked on Obie's both albums to the full, he was all involved in the second one and gave him great beats and feats, it was just that Obie was the underdog because EM and 50 was killing the Billboard at the time. His alubm is definitely underrated but it was all done perfect for it from EM and Interscope in general. I was explaining here the other day, it's hard to fit artists in between mega albums Em and 50 was doing. Shady was always about fitting whover in, not expanding all the time like other labels.
See Interscope is all about sales, Em not at all, if it was for EM, Obie would stay for life, matter a fact he's still part of the Shady family, just not on the label.
On Obie's Second album Em didn't have hardly any features and that's really the only thing most Em fans care about anyway. I agree with you on Stat though. He fucked himself. I still think no matter who Em signs, he could make them big by having tons of features on their album like with Cheers. That's pretty much the whole reason that album was successful because of Em's features on it.
