Timeline

Cory McKay, better known by his stage name Cormega, is an American rapper.

Cormega was born in Brooklyn and raised in Queens.

He was childhood friends with Nas, Havoc and Capone, who all went on to become successful rappers.

A frequent theme of his music is the countless number of his friends and family that have been killed by violence.

He was featured on Hot Day's "Going Straight Up" from his album It's My Turn.

1991

He was also featured on Blaq Poet and DJ Hot Day's track "Set It Off" from their album Without Warning in 1991.

1996

He was signed to Def Jam and recorded an album called The Testament.

Nas, his manager Steve Stoute and producers Dr. Dre and The Trackmasters joined to form The Firm.

However, Cormega was replaced with another Queensbridge artist, Nature, because Nas and/or Stoute favored Nature.

That ended Cormega's friendship with Nas.

During the recording for The Testament Cormega responded to Nas' "One Love" in the form of a letter also entitled "One Love".

2000

In 2000, he was released from his contract and he started his own record company, Legal Hustle Records.

2001

In 2001, he released his debut album, The Realness.

Many of the songs share a theme of betrayal.

Nas responded to Cormega on his song "Destroy and Rebuild" from his album Stillmatic.

Cormega retaliated with more mixtape tracks, "A Slick Response" and "Realmatic".

It served as a sequel to his 2001 debut album The Realness.

2003
