Singles TDE did it again! Zacari (TDE's New Artist) - Don't Trip

[Guvnor]

You say that like it's a bad thing lol. Adult Swim bumps are fukkin piff. That's his style.

It's annoying though, don't nobody want a whole record of that but a couple of them were very good imo.

All jokes aside its not even comparable, who's even signed to OVO? Drake and PartyNextDoor..and some guy named B.O. Bryan? Maybe I'm ignorant and they've got a bigger roster than I realize but I doubt it's competing (quality content wise) with TDE starting lineup.

They got a few other artist too to be fair like DVSN who is pretty good, Majid Jordan and Roy Woods however they do a poor job at promoting them and your right man. The quality is no where close to TDE, no where close!

It’s been 3 years. If I was a recording artist that hasn’t really popped yet. I would be upset.

Look at SZA, she got mad and frustrated then she popped right after lol. I believe TDE knows what they are doing but I feel as though it's wrong they shelve projects or exert too much control some times.

For instance, with SZA they damn near put her album together for her lol. With Ab-Soul they shelved the Unit 6 project he did with JMSN that I'm sure was gonna be epic.

I look at artists/record label/team major releases as every other year. TDE about to go pretty heavy this year. Rihanna releasing probably within the new 2-3 months, Bruno Mars, Taylor Swift, Adele may release, etc.

Pretty much any artist/label who's had a quiet 2018 is about to unload in 2019.

Regarding the song, this jams. I'm looking forward to hearing what he has this year.

 

[big bun]

Nah.

It doesn't make sense. I think at this point they need to switch things up because it seems like the label is wasting a lot of money with non-stop recording, but releasing no music. What's the point? Rashad doesn't have time to sit on the bench for 3 years. These guys should be releasing a project every other year at the latest.

Notice how Dreamville is getting their music out? Yea their projects aren't selling as well as TDE but even still, they're building to something. TDE seems stagnant because everything goes through one man, who gets to play god and sit nikkas on the bench.

Q album about to drop but jesus, it took too long. Why didn't they roll out Rashad when Q wasn't ready. Instead they...signed a new dude (Reason) and dropped his album out of nowhere. Now they're dropping the Zacari record without even an official youtube vevo page. Why?

Y'all still haven't learned about doubting TDE.

Artist development, they take it seriously over there and rightfully so because y'all stay on their head for them to push every artist the same.

It's like y'all don't remember how long Dot, Rock, Q and Soul grinded and recorded to get where they are now.

Outside of q where exactly are they right now? Soul alone can barely sell 10k nowadays. They are relatively unknown and how exactly can they develop when they can’t even test songs with the public

this song is soooo the fukking truth man, been playing the hell out of it. i feel like i want all my girls to hear this song, we as women stay finding shyt to trip over or become insecure about but when you're with a good/decent dude, they're usually giving you shyt at face value.

What the hell ever happened to Punch?

 

[Guvnor]

What the hell ever happened to Punch?

I'm sure he's still with TDE as their president.

You mean as a rapper?

 

[King Ming]

its aight... Sounds alot like a Miguel song

 

[LJLYDK!]

I just meant in general, He's one of the TDE guys you never seem to hear about, take it he doesn't wanna be in the limelight

Do you even know who Punch is?

 

[LJLYDK!]

Do you even know who Punch is?

Can't tell if your throwing shade or not, Yes i know who he is

 

[Steven_Realberg]

Just feel like you asking a crazy question. Punch a businessman, he in the cut. Just seems u expect him to be all in the videos, that’s all.

That's cause he is behind the scenes very busy more then likely. I'm sure it's not easy running a company like TDE breh so he probably is busy as fukk.

Here is an interview with him
