That's what I'm assuming, if so then here's a couple more....
Russell Simmons not signing Nas because "he sounded too much like G Rap, and G Rap doesn't sell records" (that was his quote). Nas then went on to sell over 14 million albums and is widely recognized as one of the greatest rappers of all time.
Das EFX losing a rap contest but winning the respect of EPMD, hence leading to a contract and spot on the Hit Squad.
Eve getting rejected by Dr Dre, but then Dre regretting his decision after he heard how dope she was on Ruff Ryders, leading to him signing her afterwards.
