Most Disappointing Careers In Hip Hop?

I think I would have to put Snoop on this list. After hearing him on "Deep Cover" and all over "The Chronic" I thought he would be up next. Granted he dropped "Doggystyle" but after that his solo career was disappointing. It seems like Snoop was at his best when he was on other people's albums.

I said in my opening post Trag has been on, in, around and the force behind a ton of good music. His solo career, however, has been a disappointment. Tons of wack production and awful hooks.

I would agree with those who said:
Fab
Jada
Juelz
Banks
Some of raps biggest underachievers. Guys had everything lined up to be part of raps elite, but could just never deliver. I'm sure some dudes are gonna jump in and cape for Fab, maybe even Jada, but if we are being as objective as possible, these dudes just never had that career defining album and just frankly never lived up to their potential.
I'll throw in Beanie, Budden, Blu, and Jay Elec.

This thread was made for Juelz Santana. I never thought he was all that good, but he was very catchy, fairly above average and had very good beats. From Me 2 You was 
his second album was extra mediocre but he had some fire singles. I thought he was really set to blow. Then.......I honestly don't know what happened. Didn't think Jay dropping the label would have such an impact.
AZ's peak is/was Aziatic.

Jeezy?
He did everything he could possibly do with his talent. You could argue the he never dropped another classic after TM 101, but that was lightning in a bottle. He was never going to have a career like Jay. Even if you compare him to a Dirty South legend like Scarface, his lyrics were never that profound. I feel like he exceeded expectations and has had several solid albums.
50 has suffered a severe drop-off. He had such a strong movement but really didn't put out anything memorable after GRODT. Decent material, but nothing I go back and listen to.
Snoop def fell off, but at least he's had a plethora of songs that were hits. Most of his albums were trash after Doggystyle, but I dig the R&G stuff he does, tho.

50 changed the whole game from the new era, he cant be in this list. As of today he about making major paper, I dont think he cares about music like he used to.

Below the Heavens is generally considered a modern day classic among rap critics, which I would agree with. I remember the buzz surrounding dude when it dropped. Dude came out of nowhere and was poised to be a mainstay in the hip hop scene. So what did he do to capitalize, absolutely nothing. He disappeared and released s bunch of mediocre tapes and albums with terrible quality.
Now I'm not saying he was gonna be some huge mainstream star, but he's not even recognized on the underground scene as he once was. How many times is he gonna release bth? I would say things didn't turn as they should have for him.

I don't agree with this at all. Doggystyle is a classic and Snoop was one of the guys at the forefront of the East vs West battle, which is one of the most significant and memorable moments in the history of hip hop.
Jeezy had a run of great albums and never really put anything terrible out. He also gets love from the mainstream and the streets.
50 changed the mixtape game, released one of the greatest albums of all time, and is one of the most commercially successful artist of his generation.

Man Dungeon Family had a squad, you can add Slimm Calhoun and Backbone to that list, both of their debut albums were dope.
