What's the point of signing to MMG now?

[10:31]

Seriously? If your not Ross, Wale, or Meek Mill you're not dropping an album. Tracy T? Fat Trel? Rockie Fresh? Stalley? Omarion? Triple Cs? Magazeen?


If I'm an artist I can do unofficial freestyles and drop mixtapes with videos without the Ross consign. Somebody sell signing to the imprint in 2014?

I'm just not grasping it

 

[jdubnyce]

mmg aint relevant

 

[10:31]

I think they are relevant. Ross, Meek & Wale are easy sells as mainstream artists however, outside of those 3 what the hell would you sign there for?

Omarion should've released an album off the strength of MIA in 2012.

Stalley should've dropped an album off the strength of Swanging back in Feb

What's the point of signing to anyone these days? But let's be real more people have checked for all those people aside from Omarion because of the MMG cosign than they would have off of name alone. When MMG signed Tracy T everybody was like who or what the fukk is a Tracy T. Some posters knew him but they wasn't buzzin about him.

 

[Danny Up]

And Triple C's are signed to Def Jam ain't shyt Ross can do for them while they over there.

 

[10:31]

Ok so you sign to them to increase your fan base but you never drop an album?





That didn't really add up. I think Ross is hustling nighas for their publishing. Why would you sign to his imprint only to be featured on compilations and drop mixtapes when you can do that as an unsigned artist ?

 

[Rominati]

Just the other day, I was kicking back scratching my head on why Ross signed Tracy T , I was dead thinking of all the potential positives out of wasting ya resources on a artist like that

I came to the conclusion that Rozay jus wanted a lightskin pretty boy nikka on the team who can pump out fast food singles in the Atlanta market

Albums ain't selling anyway and all y'all insist the money is in shows and tours. The only way to make a successful show or tour is to have fans, duh.

 

[10:31]

Ok so of I'm Action Bronson, and I've been an independent artist whose built a solid fan base to tour and drop mixtapes why should I sign to Rick Ross' MMG to do the same thing?


I see why Curren$y and Wiz didn't sign when he offered them deals back in 2010. What exactly is signing to MMG doing for artists not named Ross,Wale, or Meek??

getting them more exposure..

dude already answered your question twice, and you still asking ridiculous questions..

 

[Crakface]

The flagship artists album is pushed back. MMG is on their way Out .

 

[duckbutta]

infinite crab meats?

double breasted tom ford suites?

fornicate in your fortress?

models with mouths motivating you ?

hustlin ?

grand father deal for the gawd father ?

 

[Wild self]

When you sign to a rap crew AFTER the first 3-4 artists drop their album, the chances of you blowing up on that label are very slim.

 

[Hammer]

or u can drop mixtapes and that bullshyt with a ross co-sign and feature, u fukking dumbass

 

[thaKEAF]

You notice the people he's signing don't have a huge following or buzz. They have a name but not enough to the point where they can hit him with the like Action Bronson or Wiz/Spitta in 2010. I've not heard one song combined from like his past four signings so it's an exposure thing for them I'd think they'll never drop though.
