"I lost my grandma dear, lost freako, lost furl, lost cash in like one year"
U loose family and 3 close friends back to back like that and it'll put u thru a personal hell too. :/
that's exactly what i was referring to. sometimes people go through some shit and it makes them come back more on their shit, a good example would be like jennifer hudson. her whole family got murdered in like 5 minutes now she on top even more.
it depends how people respond to tragedy, i think the difference between the above example for rydah is that dre really was midway through lacing him with some real game and they were doing a lot of shit together at that point. when dre passed it just put that on hold permanently and klyde is just kinda stuck at that point.
and with ca$h, that was him pushing past the loss of dre and finding an artist to collab w/that had the type of chemistry they could both grow on. and we all know how that ended.
