which label would you sign to ? part II

[Raheem95]

Tommy Boy Records -a song placement/label signing deal where you negotiate your deal and how you will be payed.

Elektra Records- you will receive a $45,000 advance for your debut album.

LaFace Records -you get offered a production, management, and publishing deal. You will receive 56 cents for every album but you need to recoupe all the money spent promoting and recording your album.

Columbia Records- you get a $135,000 advance for your album. The label will drop you if your album flops

GOOD Music - you get that Kanye stimulus package, you will most likely get a good amount of fame. You will make good money tho.

Bad Boy Records- you will get signed to a $250,000 deal. The downside is that you will be signed for 16 years and cannot go anywhere else.

G-Unit Records-you get that 50 Cent stimulus package, might get some fame, might be XXL freshman and if you don't drop a album and make no money it's alright cause 50 Cent feeds his team.


RCA Records - a $3 million deal where you have money to record your album and start your own record label


Roc Nation -$2 million deal to sign with Hov. You will receive a Hov stimulus package. Your album might be shelved if you are not dropping no heat.

I know too many people over at GOOD that are financially struggling...

I'd go with Roc Nation... lots of freedom...

 

[Prince Cairo]

RCA sounds appealing.

Roc Nation - but that would be a risk. Hov is a shark.

Not listed, but Gucci's label.

 

[Craig Mack]

where's Death Row at?
I wanna put my life in danger in exchange for a classic album.

 

[Cloud McFly]

Roc Nation for me.

Freedom to record what I want, and possibly throw Hov or Rihanna on a song for a hit if all else fails... Sounds like a win win to me.

If I couldn't be successful there, it'd be all my fault.

 

[BK The Great]

where's Babygrande & Koch Records on that list? rather be an independent artist and make music you want to make.

 

[HDKG_]

RCA or Roc Nation

 

[Pier7]

prolly roll with GOOD

you know they have the young artsy uppity negro and white demographic on lock.

look how they were able to take a mumbling idiot from brooklyn and make him go no#1

 

[KENNY DA COOKER]

 

[Big Meat 5000]

LaFace.

I'd be able to recoup everything from my multiple #1's written by LAFace.

relocate to ATL & have classic freaknik memories.

go on tour, swindle my way into TLC dressing room & eat t-boz ass before their set.

:jbcool:​

 

[ISO]

RCA. That's the A$AP Rocky deal...

Roc Nation would be my second choice.

 

[1-8-7-Skillz]

where's Death Row at?
I wanna put my life in danger in exchange for a classic album.

Musically the best Choice but everything Else
being your boss
Constant gang-war Setting there with bloods & crips and their members going at each other
Getting Cheated out your money

I'd go to Epic and get LA Reid on the team over all of these, but if I had to pick from your list prob RCA or Roc Nation.

Im not taking any advance just because, f that.

Never go to Bad Boy because of the Curse. On top of that, don't expect to keep your publishing with puff lol.

I like Columbia but if your shyt flops your stuck paying back your advance so forget this off top.

if your undeniable, GOOD is always an option. You have to be able to fend for yourself tho.. if you need the label behind you more then they need you then forget it.

Management deals are always the best. Even record deals that are structured like management deals because the label needs to put in their side of the work to recoup their ends. You have to establish yourself before you sign this type of deal tho. Laface is good if your more of a songwriter or producer, but for an artist, 56 cents per album is pretty abysmal.

its 2016 so who really cares about an xxl freshman. your gonna get placed next to a lil yachty on the cover so thats nothing to be proud of. Cameo in power so 50 has you in the bag. I wouldn't do this either
