Why does the Coli believe OVO is a bad label?

[OnlyInCalifornia]

The weeknd was already big, way bigger than PND is way before that tho. shyt he was on every rapper songs during his first album cycle

I could be wrong but I swear House Of Balloons came out, he got a lil buzz going, THEN Drake started to work with him?

 

[NotaPAWG]

OVO doesn't have the same resources as the main label... Come on now, you know This

Man stfu and stop caping. PND and Majid Jordan have to get fukking music grants to afford to get a music video done and you see no problem with this? You're stanning is disgusting

Drake kicking them down pennies they can't even afford to pay for music videos

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Cause OVO is really just Drake and a bunch of guys who either write for him, or get their original songs hi-jacked for his own singles

You're right... The zone is when The Weeknd started gain real traction...

Wicked Games became a hit when the labels started putting money Behind the

This isn't different than most rapper labels

getting the government to pay for your videos instead of it coming from your artist budget sounds like a win to me

How is it a label when the main dude is signed to 1 nikka, who's signed to another nikka, whos signed to........

The ovo label deal is separate from drakes solo artist recording deal, dummy

 

[WickedGames]

washed up nikkaz perform to sold out shyt in the UK all the time. Y'all are where go when they washed

Your passport has no stamps bruh. Anybody who was at that London show knows it was, the amount of gorgeous women Black London girls love PND

And his tour was international tour.

 

[Vinny Lupton]

That was never suppose to be MAJID hit record and it wouldn't have been a hit if it was thier record

That song was created during the NWTS sessions

And Party makes more from Legend by giving it to Drake vs releasing on soundcloud

These guys don't understand business. Majid make more from Hold On being a Drake song than if it was their song. Same with PND writing Work for Rihanna. Think anybody can walk into every major pop station in the country and pop in their tape and they'll "play it if they like it", brehs

Awful Records is a great label.

I can't wait til negs come back

 

[WickedGames]

One good thing about OVO is they keep the actual fans of the music fed.

Between dvsn, Majid Jordan, party, and Roy Woodw plenty of fire music and projects.

dvsn have RnB album of the year so far (until tomorrow) no debate

 

[tremonthustler1]

Nobody knows what those records would've done it's too late now. Nobody knows what can take off and what can't

Ask Quentin Miller

 

[NotaPAWG]

I can't wait til negs come back

Awful records does a lot for their artist regardless of being an indie label so you gonna neg me over that? Clown ass fakkit.

 

[SunZoo]

This all labels if y'all ever wanted to be honest

How so?

Everybody on OVO is there to prop up Drake and give him their best material it seems like.

You look at somebody like 50, he was giving his artists material and his presence to his detriment. Game, Banks Buck went plat, Yay went gold...Mobb Deep and MOP got signed and given a platform on the strength...he was holding THEM up.
Jay got Bleek some shine, Beans some shyt and put him in a position to put his crew on, they all ate from HIS plat. All this "bu but the whisper flow!". They weren't propping Jay Z up at
Same thing with Shady.
Same thing with TDE.

Only OVO artist I know of his Party, and he keep stealing all of Party album...to go and put it on his Party album

Real shyt...it's a successful formula but it's run like a factory, he's Willy Wonka, all these other nikkas are oompa loompas.

 

[WickedGames]

As if all the gifted writers haven't written for others. Frank Ocean, Dream... All gifted Rnb writers pretty much let their pen off.

PND gonna be rich forever off Work and he still feeds his actual fans with fire music
