​@@silasotim8358Maybe you should stop listening to lies and learn the facts. Y'all hate Jay z so much and for what? Jigga and Foxy never had a relationship. They were just friends from Brooklyn. Foxy dated Haitian Jack and was engaged to Kurupt and Kurupt broke up with her because there was rumors going around that she was sleeping with DMX.

Facts

[@DB-115]

They weren't underrated. They were some of the biggest hip-hop acts of their day. Dre was a horrible choice for handling majority of production.

[@jkbzz]

If you had bought the album and they had gone like triple platinum, I am sure they would have gone on to make another album. Unfortunately it was a big budget album that didn't do well commercially.

[@jimmyplenderleith9471]

Their album just didnt sell and honestly, Dre was not the right guy to produce this group....Dre's production has always been on point, but he was not a good fit for this group.
