What exactly does Cash Money/YMCMB do for artist?

[Young/Nacho\Drawz]

I'm trying to make sense of so many artist signing over there. What is it that they do, someone please explain?

 

[osama bin fly]

They go to strip clubs together and spend money they don't really have

 

[HalfwayHandsome]

let them wear the ymcmb shirts

 

[Jhoon]

its advertising. its the positive guilt by association.

 

[The Coochie Assassin]

Yeah just promotion. The affiliation can help them book shows, club appearances and get people interested in their music.

 

[Young/Nacho\Drawz]

Business wise how does this work? Does YMCMB/Cash Money get paid directly or do they get points from music or what?

 

[TEKBEATZ]

I like that kid Euro but he wont do much with that label.. btw did you all know that new ymcmb compilation leaked 3 days ago.

 

[NSSVO]

Not all of them have a Drake or Nicki deal. Like a lot of those guys are on startup deals. They gotta get hot first, on their own, then the label will back a project. Tyga for example.

 

[Still FloW]

They give you a Wayne feature as a signing gift and if you pop they might put some money in your back if not, then ask the remaining rooster of fakkits on that label...

...rape 'em

Id say this. Most of the artists on YMCMB were probably better off after signing than before signing.

Lil Twist got to become Justin Beiber's best friend, Lil chuckee just had a video buying an Audi,

Jae Millz, Gudda Gudda got to be featured on platinum singles (every girl and bedrock)

YMCMB worked out in a major way for Nicki, Drake, and Tyga.

this. hanging with Bieber at his apex is gonna be the highlight of these dudes careers and much better than letting Birdman live out his fetish fantasies with them

Claim them on their taxes.
