Tha Realest Death Row Days

Tha Realest was first signed to Death Row Records under the alias Tenkamenin in 1996 after rapping in front of Tupac & Suge at a boxing match, but Tha Realest was signed after Tupac died and never fulfilled his dream of rapping with his hero. Tha Realest has left Tha Row and now has his own label but still appears under artists in development on the roster so who knows if he has fully left and maybe he has gone independent to prove to Tha Row he can make it on his own so they can re-sign him one day. He has appeared on a few Death Row compilations such as "Gang Related", "Chronic 2000" and "Too Gangsta For Radio". Tha Realest was meant to have released an album on Tha Row entitled "Prodigal Son" but this has never seen the light of day and most probably never will. He recorded alot of unreleased songs at Tha Row but they will never be released because they own all the rights to the songs. But maybes if Tha Realest's album on his label "Witness Tha Realest" is a success Tha Row may release it because we know what they are like with former artists material because they just want to make money for themselves so who knows?
