Roc-A-Scenes
Here’s an old internet favourite that I always find myself coming back to. Kinda like the Star Wars Kid or All Your Base.
Someone has written fan fiction based on Roc-A-Fella Records. The great thing about these stories is that they were started in the heyday and continued on til around the time Jay-Z signed Nas. It’s like a varitable time-line of what happened with Roc-A-Scenes. Obviously having an imagination and brief knowledge of people signed to the ROC helps.
I was reminded of it while reading someone complain about how Game’s next album will be full of name-dropping. Check out this episode where Jay invites Game to discuss the beef that was brewing.
Or, start from episode one, not exactly the best one but it sets up the running joke about Bleek pretty nicely.

Game: Express yourself.
Jay: …….okay, well first off I don’t appreciate some of the comments you been throwin at my lil homie, Bleek.
Game: You got this nigga answerin yo’ phone. He’s Mr. Telephone Man, like New Edition.
Jay: But my homie is like my brother, and that’s family. So it’s like you disrespectin my family. You dig what I’m sayin?
Game: YEAH! like Usher and Lil Jon, baby.
