Talk:Aftermath Entertainment

message: Black Wall Street is not distributed through either Interscope or Aftermath. They dont even have a distribution deal. Furthurmore, Shady Records and G-Unit Records are not distributed through Aftermath.  Not to mention that all of these labels have their own pages with the same roster information. Linking to thse labels would be appropriate but to list all of these artists as if they were part of Aftermath Entertainment is ridiculous. A list of former artists is also a nessecisity to provide a history of the label. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DanShoryu (talk • contribs) 
:I got another question about the Aftermath/Interscope setup. The way it is, is Aftermath just for show and Eminem and Dre are essentially signed to Interscope, or is there a difference between "owned by Interscope" and "distributed through Interscope"? I'm curious because there was a similar setup with Roc-a-Fella/Def Jam but Def Jam eventually bought Roc, leading me to believe there might be some difference.

message: I don't get it. How can 50 and Game be still signed to the same label, still be produced by the same producers, and still be beefing? Either the entire G-Unot movement and the whole 50-against-the-world shtick is a massive wool over our eyes, or hell, I don't know. Someone clarify this, please! MOD 04:59, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: They are beefing and they are the same label. It's not that complicated a situation to understand. Dre is not the kind of guy to step in and control everything so there beef is just going on uninterupted.--Ted87 21:14, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: It was never released, it was shelved, then Dr. Dre let King Tee release the material he recorded in 2002, but NOT on Aftermath Entertainment, because King Tee left after his project was shelved. It's not an AFTERMATH release, because it was never released ON Aftermath. --- Who's the one you call Mr. Macho? The head honcho, swift fist like Camacho 14:31, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: King Tee

message: Are there any sources for Slim the Mobster, Nicky Grier, and Hittman?  As far as I know, Hittman is a former artist.  Should there be tables for the producers and former artists?  And lastly, if we have a "joint artists" section, should the also be listed in the "current artists" section?  --JpGrB 19:57, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I personally feel that the Artists section isn't suitable, there's no reason why joint artists shouldn't simply be with Artists, separating them does not make the article any more improved. Furthermore, a brief description of each artist is helpful as it sums up their artists in one neat box, as oppose to looking around different articles to learn more. I actually preferred the section when it was like this, though it was understandably removed due to weasel words and lack of sources. It should be brought back if even kept small and referenced, for the encyclopaedic sake of it. Just my opinion. -- Harish - 16:33, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

If nothing more has really come out within 24 hours, I'm probably gonna change it back, but still put in the history section that it's been reported.  --HELLØ    ŦHERE 00:48, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Dr. Dre has produced for Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo, D12, and numerous others on other labels, does that mean he is to be considered a "Shady producer" or "G-Unit producer"? Some people are signed as producers, much like Kanye West used to be, some are just signed as artists.

replies: text: Why are there so many mentions of it on teh intarwebs then? Somebody added that, and I googled up some results supporting it (instead of just reverting the unsourced addition, as I was inclined to). Do you consider the source in this article wrong, or unreliable? (He could easily be "former", for all I know. And I don't know which album he's supposed to have put out with them.)— JohnFromPinckney (talk) 00:00, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

message: I read on the Eminem page that he sued Apple and Aftermath. That seems like a pretty important thing to include in the article.
Unfortunately, I'm having problems finding a reliable source. Here are some conflicting arguments I have found:

"Eminem sued Apple and nobody else" http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/apple_lawsuit_express_eminem_vs._apple_trial_begins/
