I say nobody

Thizz ent is only still around because of Dres mame, its the only thing keeping them afloat. Its just a matter of time before Fab Leaves and theyll be stuck in the ocean without an oar to steer with. Dubee and PSD are cool and all but they aren't the driving force of Thizz and everyone knows it, its F.A.B. Hes young and hes putting out the hits. Besides Fab PSD and Dubee no one else on Thizz is gonna get my 15 bucks

i wonder who's in charge of thizz entertainment now, didn't mac dre own that company?
Kilo Curt is a part owner, I wonder what happened to Dre's stake in the company after his passing. Did it go to Curt or to his family?????

i dont know how much thizz benifited off of dres death as much as they just benefited from dre in general. even when md was alive he was promoting all those shitty lil bruce and rydah j klyde bullshit cds, so they were getting just as much of a push then as they are now that hes dead. even if he were alive they probably still would of been mac dre presents sucky mc magee and ppl would still buy them.

as far as e-40. i feel like after dre died it ignited a fire and the whole bay rap scene started to blow alot more rapidly (and by that i dont mean rappers stepped up their game, cause they still suck. it just seemed to get everyone alot more amped about the bay movement). yeah 40 was still gonna release a cd w/ bug eye john but he definitley did capitalize off seeing how the bay suddenly was blowing up. had it not been for this sudden hyphy craze that just happened to really blow up after mds death (maybe just a coincidence) i wonder if 40 would of put so much focus on the bay/hyphy culture when pushing his album

so if anyone actually directly benefited from dres death id say its been airbrush artists and shirt makers. independent and companies

i dont think his death had anything to do with e-40's success or the hyphy movement blowing cuz from wut i remember erybody was hoppin on this hyphy shit before mac dre died and mac dre was really blowin at the time i remember evry party and clubs was playin mac dre thizzle dance n s.t.u.p.i.d befo he died and when he died it jus kept movin but it made it seem like all these people hopped on the bandwagon cuz he died but really the shit jus kept movin. his death was a loss to the bay and all the fans but i dont think nuthin positive came out of it at all.
