ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Alongside Jay-Z and Biggs, he built Roc-A-Fella Records into an unstoppable empire, launching the careers of Kanye West, Cam'ron, and Beanie Sigel while dominating streetwear with Rocawear. But behind the classic hit records and multi-million dollar deals lay an explosive, tyrannical ego that burned every bridge in the industry. In this video, Rap Lore explores how four decades of success crumbled into $25 million in debt, lost trademarks, embarrassing $100 auctions, and desperate diss tracks.
