Truthfully I would want full creative and management control.... I would probably hire some marketing and promotion consultants out of pocket to push my shyt. I can't sign with a label in good conscience knowing how many artists they fukked over. I CYEAAAANT[/Anthony Fantano Speeding Bullet Review]

Neither one of those options including touring which is what artist now a days make the most cake from besides endorsements.

Tour money is life for these dudes. That money has to be right.

Truthfully - whoever believes in me the most and is willing to give me the biggest push. I want that Kendrick Lamar, Weeknd 2nd album push.

But if everything is equal i'm taking the XL or own label deals. Although - a big part of me wants to sign was Cash Money NH because the marquee artist on that label tend to have brilliant runs artistically and commercially..... even though they all end up broke and/or strung out

6 easy. 5 is very intriguing but a risk if that one album is a flop.


You'd have a fool to sign with cash money. Bird man up there with Puffy with robbing artists.
