After the album dropped, <strong>Suge<\/strong> was pursuing <strong>Big Mike<\/strong> to join <strong>Death Row Records<\/strong>, and even put the two up in an apartment in Long Beach. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Mike<\/strong> and <strong>3-2<\/strong> ended up recording a song with <strong>Snoop<\/strong> and <strong>Warren G<\/strong>, but when <strong>Willie D<\/strong> left the <strong>Geto Boys<\/strong> and <strong>Lil\u2019 J<\/strong> offered the spot to <strong>Big Mike<\/strong>, he accepted.
