Chauncey stayed effing up. Big part of the reason Hip and I brought in Guru.

Super producer Just Blaze has stepped in to give his take on the alleged extortion plot involving former Jay Z producer Chauncey Mahan.
Blaze took to Twitter to clarify that Mahan was an incompetent engineer, not a producer, whose constant screw ups led to the hiring of Young Guru to take over engineering duties.
Young Guru
"Chauncey stayed effing up. Big part of the reason Hip and I brought in Guru," Blaze wrote. "Ill never forget the day Chaunce stepped to Duro wanting to fight lol. This guy ruined every tape transfer for the Dynasty Album. Duro calls him out on it. He runs over to Soundtrack studios, comes in the room like "yo Duro I ain't no b*tch" takes his jacket off. Me and Duro just looked at him. Blankest of stares.. And went back to work. If you listen to Bleek's version of "is that your b***h" you'll notice it's in mono. Why? Bc Chauncey. Lol. If u listen to "get your mind right" from Dynasty, You'll notice all the choruses after the first one fall in the wrong places. Bc Chauncey. We had to re record "streets is talking" vox. Why? Bc Chauncey. We eventually got tired of it. I randomly ended up doing a session with this new engineer who called himself @Young_Guru. He was young, understood the sound, and knew what he was doing. Brought him in on a Hov session as a test and it clicked. Rest is history."
Oh. And I have backups of just about all of those files Chauncey tried to extort for. Dummy.
