Ruthless Records - You're CD is going straight to bargain bin unless your on Eazy-E's album
Death Row Records - How many artist were "Never was" instead of "Has been" - I don't feel I'd flourish in that environment unless I have the opportunity to watch Tupac work. That would inspire me for a life time.
Bad Boy Records - My album would be released on this label, but would I get paid? I would insist upon a short tenure so I could move on after draining all of their marketing room plans for me
Aftermath Records - No, would rather be signed directly to Interscope. Dr. Dre would be inspired by working with me and I'd end up writing the whole Detox album, I can't have that. 9% isn't good enough
Rap A Lot Records - What does the general public remember?
No Limit Records - Maybe but I need a Snoop collab album
Cash Money Records - No
Def Jam Records - Would rather be with Aftermath
Roc-A-Fella Records - Think back. Wait? Nothing to think about outside of Jay-Z releases
Other: Justin Bieber's label/Interscope . . yup, that'll work right now

If i was a rapper i guess it would have to be Def Jam. That's the only label on the list that i know would probably release my shyt if it was hot and i could make a few dollars. I know Def Jam got their shyt with them to, but look at them other record labels on the poll. They all have a track record of not releasing or not paying their artists their worth. Except maybe Rocafella though they had plenty of other issues too.

Add on:

Duck Down-I wouldn't feel comfortable working with execs who can't think beyond the street corner

Rawkus-Rupert Murdoch's son funded that label. That is all.

A joint venture with either Sony or Interscope

Roc-A-Fella.

You'll get an album filled with Kanye and Just Blaze beats, a Jay-Z verse, and likely get a decent amount of promotion.
