Steroid Marketing at Interscope: Busta & Game?

I was trying to figure out if anybody had an early call on the Interscope steroid scandal but the posts and news items and blog comments speculating on steroid use by various Interscope artists seems to go back to whenever they first appeared looking cut.

Now we know what 50 Cent meant when he said he was going to put M.O.P. in the gym.  He meant "on the needle".

That M.O.P. post led to me starting the 50 Cent category cause it was one more example of his marketing juice!

Interestingly enough, though Busta Rhymes hasn't been mentioned legally as far as I know, I've been finding more speculations about him than about anyone else.

Anybody know when The Game first got all cut?  Maybe after he signed with 50?  Roid rage may well have contributed to their harsh breakup.

I doubt this story will get much more interesting, except for whoever else gets exposed, but I just love it when a wall of the hip hop hall of marketing mirrors gets broken and we get to see the sordid poker game going on in the backroom.

It just makes the Mainstream Hip-Hop market look more like WWE every day.
