Is MMG a real label or just an imprint?

[Buckeye Fever]

Did this nikka get 30 mil or somethin

Got distribution through Warner in 2011

And they gave Ross some VP/A&R title

Imprint. Ross gets the artists, Warner ponys the advances etc.

 

[Buckeye Fever]

Good looks, brehs

 

[Loud Still Coolin]

cross marketing eh, damn def jam fell the fukk off with rap

lyor cohen must of negotiated this win.

 

[OGJOHNNY5]

so basically officer ricky pockets their bread?

im sure he gets a percentage of everyone he signs, its what we call a finders fee. he's WMG's artist development agent and he's got a hell of a track record so far.

 

[Zach Lowe]

Imprint

I'll call it a real label when they have their own offices and staff (not just random goons being "A&R's" or whatever)

 

[Hersh]

so -- same as good music?

And CTE is an imprint as well, BTW. So Freddie Gibbs isn't actually on Def Jam. One of the reasons he isn't getting promoted as much as someone like Meek.

The fact that their leader is Rick Ross though...
