Whatchu mean loyal tho? If X is a Ruff Ryders artist, and Swizz is the nephew of the dudes who started it, how does it necessarely tell you its about loyalty? X was really Ruff Ryders even before Swizz - and hes their nephew! X was also the one who brought The Lox, which is why i think they had issues around the time X started Bloodline. I think he wanted them to join but they didnt want to and he felt ill cuz he brought them on and they only jumped BACK to Ruff Ryders after it blew.
X brought Eve too. X did alooot for Ruff Ryders too. Thats why Ruff Ryders got a deal with Interscope. Eve was on Interscope. X had a cousin who was fucking with Mel Man, and Mel Man and nem was working with Eve. But after it being stale or whatever or not knowing how to market her X liked her and took her to Ruff Ryders.
Like they said Swizz Ruff Ryders era was cool but other than that mostly meeh. And his production always been pretty simple. Dude is really a DJ and didnt start producing until late. Nobody was fucking with Swizz before DMX started working with him. He was just seen as Dee and Waahs nephew.
Its a shame that Dame Grease didnt get to produce As MUCH for X after his first joint. I think it was cuz he didnt wanna sign to the Ruff Ryders production team but only wanted to be managed by them. Grease did alot of the Mase joints (ex Ruff Ryder), Lox (Money, Power & Respect joints) and so and then X joints. So you see the pattern within the Ruff Ryder crew.
Who wouldve thought that in years Swizz wouldve been the biggest man standing out of all the Ruff Ryders? Clearly its off the strength of being Dee & Waahs nephew.
