My Take
Irv Gotti was a builder, the sort of figure who shapes an era from behind the boards rather than in front of the mic. Rising from a New York DJ to co-founding Murder Inc. and launching the careers of Ja Rule and Ashanti, he had the rarest gift in music: an ear that turns talent into hits and the nerve to bet on it. His was a turbulent story with real highs and shadows, and his passing in 2025 closed a vivid chapter of hip-hop history. I respect the executives who move the culture, and Gotti undeniably moved it.
