@@REAL6 They were going to have a 25th Anniversary tour for the Cactus Album in 2014. Serch’s wife basically issued him an ultimatum (“Me or The Road; I’m not going through this again”). Serch chose his wife and backed out the tour. Pete (according to Serch, on Questlove’s podcast) had already accepted AND spent the advance money for the first three dates on the tour. Fast forward to a couple years ago when the whole Serch/Rakim ghostwriting accusations thing was happening. Serch goes on Lord Sear’s show to clap back at Sear for dragging Serch into the mess. Sear secretly had Pete call in to call out Serch for being a pathological liar. Serch & Pete start arguing right there on air. Rich makes even bolder proclamations on both of them on Twitter (claimed to have fucked both their respective wives). Long story short, yeah…you’re never seeing 3rd Bass on stage or wax again.

One person you can research if you haven't already her name is Faith Newman she has a couple of videos on KZbin where she's gives details on the signing of Nas to the making of Illmatic. She stated the office wasn't really feeling Nas & she told them won't you go live in Queensbridge to see what he goes through on a daily basis & she herself sometimes go out there to see him, the intro on Illmatic from Wild Style was actually her vhs tape that Nas borrowed & never gave back
