Roc-A-Fella Co- Founder "Biggs" Talks Signing Kanye West, Jay-z's Success + Prison Lessons

[@ajthegreat07]

Man he sounds like a humble version of Dame

[@letn3845]

Jay dame and Biggs out here making power plays separate . That's real growth . Salute to them

[@SlapBoxCity]

dame aint doing shit.... biggs aint doin shit bc he just got out of prison

[@karlieredd8863]

Amir G You know you a new nigga, both them men about they business and you can never count real hustlers out. But you don't know nothing about shaking and moving. Salute to the REAL ONES.

[@KO-OG-Passport-Bro-1997]

Dame ain't got no fucking money...that's why that nigga always bitter and angry!!!! smh

[@JayPoe06]

pipimp100 Dame got bread but he ain't showing it

[@PEACEBRINGER200]

@pipimp100 CHOKE NO JOKE is that you ???

[@tharealcommentator6777]

I think OG picked the right forum to conduct his interview on, instead of 'The Charlemagne circus club'. Biggs, is not for controversy-drama just business. This interview was straight business. Glad to see him come out from behind the scenes 💯

[@pedrogates3189]

ThaReal Commentator he did the breakfast club

[@vaqueen3445]

Biggs and Jay Z have almost the same chill personality

[@iAmTaiBoogie]

Damn before hearing biggs speak i thought he was gon be all hood, but hes very well spoken, down to earth and humble

[@vaqueen3445]

Really

[@garyloten-beckford889]

iAmTaiBoogie well spoken lol

[@vaqueen3445]

Gary LotenBeckford hjkjho

[@ftnrbhmwk]

he's not humble, he's a shark...... You can't trust ppl like him.. In the movie THE GODFATHER, Marlin Brando was a Boss , softly spoken, and vicious.... Just like AL PACHINO was the same way in the GODFATHER

[@lilbowwowy]

*soft spoken

[@yadig3503]

Title should be "Biggs talks" lol

[@galvatron3290]

[@stopbeingakeyboardkillermo4112]

Shouldn't be the other way around? Biggs is older than J Williams!

[@joejsimpson3775]

u talkin the junk yard dog

[@jeremiahpadilla4466]

Respect for this man and what he's done for hip hop

[@thapowerexchange]

Biggs saying that Roca fella was all "relational" explains why Beans speaks on his time there with so much emotion. if you're perceptive, and you were a Rochead like I was, you could see that family environment they displayed. happy 20th Reasonable Doubt. thanks Jay, Dame and Biggs for showing us black power

[@chargers1783]

He looks like Jay Willams.

[@ldydanielle]

He got that smooth serial killer type vibe

[@lean2298]

*If HoV and NaS can squash beef, I want to see HoV, DaMe, BigGz, and Ye in the same room. That would complete my golden era nostalgia along with a Snoop & Dre album, and another OuTkaSt joint*..........and a *Lauryn Hill follow-up to the Miseducation*

[@nhoodjazz]

[@rickjames7483]

Jay looking out for him. He also looking out for Emory Jones. People get on Jay, but he looks out for those who have been loyal.

[@Firmbiz101]

Reasonable Doubt... Was one of my go to albums... Still is... I can still remember the first time I heard Dead Presidents.... Omg

[@therealflamelit]

Biggs was the realist dude on the ROC..lookin like AZ uncle lol

[@iAmNyC718]

Dead tho.... I was saying damn him and AZ look alike... LOL thats crazy!

[@Flowofwisdom]

One time for Angie Mar! Dope interview with Biggs. #Salute #flowofwisdom

[@divinedarkfemininetarotbyt3457]

Flow of Wisdom yes she is old school and I wish folks would stop comparing her to tbc

[@antbuddie8809]

dont forget NO LIMIT RECORDS Angie Mar.

[@leanderdale6292]

No Disrespect to Roc-A-Fella, Bad Boy, Cash Money and Death Row records but nobody mentions No Limit when you talk about Biggest Rap Labels. No Limit is the world's number one rap label of all time. This is not opinion. It's a fact! Look it up! They have out sold of these record companies in album sells. Start giving credit where is credit is due. Master P set the standard on selling and marketing records. He was the pioneer of independently owning his own record label. He set the Blueprint on Hustling records with the Influence of J not Z but the Prince.

[@henrycooper7136]

Leander Dale

[@shownarickbrake2771]

Leander Dale Good shit. I see you know hip hop

[@TheeCoachg]

Leander Dale thats why they dont mention it! NY wants to be the forefront for everything in Hip Hip.

[@vincentlewis8732]

Leander Dale the only reason they don't mention it is because no limit was 100% independent... when the white man doesn't have his hands in it then it's considered "unofficial "

[@thesemfnnutts]

No Limit was at the right place at the right time. The only dope rappers they had was Snoop and Mystical and they were transplants from other labels. I give them props and unlike most of you, I bought pretty much everything with the tank on it. But they had a bunch of below average to weak rappers, they just got over due to the Master P marketing hype (which I respect BTW). But to say they were the greatest label of all time and say it's not your opinion but facts? Nah

[@Stonecoldalston]

Roc might def be top 3 but Def Jam have to be #1 all the legendary Artists they had

[@MrFlyVisuals]

Ronnie Alston Bad Boys had a lot of artist as well Biggie,112, Mase, Diddy, Lox, Faith Evans, Carl Thomas, Loon, Mario Winans, Total, Etc. so Bad boy wins in that respect.

[@ralphthompson355]

Ronnie Alston true, and it's not even close! They're the foundation of it all.

[@megga0]

you're bugging. Every company you just mention emulated def jam. from the clothing companies to TV shows. Russell taught this guys everything.

[@RufflyfeTV]

DEF JAM wasn't/isn't an indie label...that's why it wasn't mentioned

[@dhastings13]

Yo... watch Krush Groove. That's the Def Jam homie was talking about... back when it was a label like the rest of em

[@ATLANTICVISIONS]

The most important label was Sugar Hill Records, a record label specializing in hip hop music that was founded in 1979 by husband and wife Joe and Sylvia Robinson.

[@coreymason7748]

"Sometimes the Journey is more important than the destination" ......#classic

[@JohnWilliams-uy7xg]

I literally listen to Reasonable Doubt everyday. Dead Presidents is the theme song of my life.

[@misterm901]

Sometimes it takes the worst situation to bring out the best in you. Jail time is like a forced meditation because you have lots of time to think without outside influences. However, it's up to the individual whether he uses that time for self redemption or self hatred. Living and learning is what life is about.

[@76yaadie]

These are the great ones. They are behind the scenes and you never hear from them but they drive everything.

[@ediesmiles1]

I love his smile! Your so humble!!!!!!!!

[@DocHicksTv]

Great Interview

[@ruddiato]

he should be on the breakfast club,they get straight to the point and ask the juicy questions that ppl wanna get the answers to

[@jamalbryant8099]

yeah like "are you a player, how many girls you bed? smh

[@joemaddog5641]

ruddiato because Angy is basically a dinosaur. She's old enough to be a grandmother how her and flex are even still relevant. Is beyond me. Or still on the Radio.

[@jamalbryant8099]

Joe Kelz it's called mature interview, stupid, i know you kids want to hear drama and fights, but some ppl want to hear a decent interview for a change

[@VernBizNess]

ruddiato NAH. She need to Skate

[@ruddiato]

money laundering

[@feelgoodmusiq4512]

Salute to Biggs. That album/movement was theme music to my street hustles and also played a big part in me advancing to legal hustles before the game destroyed me. Much love brother.

[@cartagenaucme]

That music set the mood as soon as the video came on!!

[@tyronjcoleman]

Thank you Angie !!!! I remember Dash was all about agression to push the movement; "Why those jackets got Def Jam and our artists wearing them at the show, swap it out with the Roca wear jackets, put Rocafella on da back!"

[@galvatron3290]

Great Interview, Glad To See This Dude Back At It Again😎

[@Christian900]

Glad Kareem Biggs is back, I always wondered what to him . Good to see here still here

[@RONJAE212003]

He is cool as a fan. Love men like him. He is s magnet

[@damonlconnor]

Biggs is such a level headed dude... Definitely was the nucleus to Roc-A-Fella Records. Roc- A- Fella is top 3 hip hop label after Def Jam & Bad boy.

[@damonlconnor]

I like cashmoney records but It's not always about the amount of records a company sold but more importantly about the kind of quality artistes that record label produced over the years and the impact they had on the overall industry. 

[@IvanOrdell]

Where can I buy that t-shirt???

[@Bweemz313]

Excellent interview!!

[@Noelle.Tyler90]

I now recognize him from Young Gunz "Cant Stop Wont Stop" video. He was standing in the background with his son who looks exactly him. He actually looks younger now than he did back then in that 2003 video. Nice t-shirt by the way. Definitely a few people missing from it though.

[@echad6259]

[@lajoyce8908]

[@rossrivares8129]

"My big brother was Biggs brother." I finally got that line from Big Brother smfh
