Thursday, May 21, 2009 at 8:00AM So Slaughterhouse is a new rap crew that consist of Crooked I, Joell Ortiz, Joe Budden, and Royce 5' 9." You got four pretty good rappers, but is to go so far to say a "Supergroup" is somewhat misleading. I don't understand how you get above average rappers to get any better combined with other above average rappers. Thats like if I were to take Carson Daily and Craig Ferguson To make a Super Late Night Show.
Furthermore lets look at other Super-Mediocre Rap collabs:
Ali & Gipp

Do you remember Goodie Mob? How about the St. Lunatics? Well what if we combine Bigg Gip and Ali together from those groups? Do you even remember which artist comes from which camp?
The Sothern collaboration that no one ask for their household names to create the super average group "Ali & Gipp," with the album selling a whopping 4,331 units.
Harlem World Featuring Mase
As you can tell from Mase's Very award winning and comical acting skills as an officer, this group screams as whats his name and whats her name rap those hard lyrics to a cheesy Just Blaze Production.
Omarion and Bow Wow

So we gather here the leading stars of Urban Dance/sports Youth movies and have them create an album that you might be think would be a compilation soundtrack to all the dance movies that came out in the past 10 years. Looking at the cover, it would look like if we going to fight over a starring role for another dance movie. But nope, they created music and the album didn't even go gold.
What if we were to take this formula further in Movies? Take Crappy Future Sci-Fi plot, Blacks Vs. Asians, Romeo Vs. Julet, Marques Houston, Urban Dance moves and we have a cluster frak of crappy movie.
Lesson: if your product sucks, don't cram other crap that is equal value.
