No, you keep making cars out to be "chariots of fire" and lightbugs out to be "twinkling fairies from neverland'. And how did I 'answer my own question' when I never even asked one(see, that's a question)? I get it, I'm starting to see you slowly unravel.
I'm sure you DO believe Pac and the pimp were "sacrificed". If only Irv had sacrificed Ashanti, right, lol.
This "elite" you speak of are just businessmen. The fact you speak of them as some unseen entities indicates to me you've never met anyone important. I've got the number of the guy who had the final say so on the release and date of any album thru SMC records around 2005(probably still) on my old phone. Nothing "elite" about that dude. He can drink you under the table if you busted out St. Ides and Colt 45s.
Oh, unless you mean his boss who hired him to handle all that stuff because he's BETTER AT IT, so the "BOSS" stays out of his way and lets him do his job. FYI, the guy at the top of the totem pole doesn't care about what singles coming out or when it's getting released. They leave that in the hands of the "way less elite'.
