The BEST & WORST Rap Labels To Sign To

[@ThoughtOuter]

Dreamville is literally the best label. Looks like artists release when they want to release and there is much needed support and even independence when needed. Cole doesn't leave any of his people hanging at all and the entire Dreamville roster is always performing at Dreamville fest every year. Even Reason from TDE did collabs and flowed and enjoyed Dreamville so much on Revenge of the Dreamers

Drake sees talent and suppresses it purposely so they don’t grow bigger than him he does this on purpose if you wanted to know why he signs artist and doesn’t want anything to do with them it’s because he’s purposely seeking out talent and putting you in a hole and he’s so powerful in the industry he can tell all connections to you need not to help you

I don’t think he’s doing it so they don’t become bigger than him, i think hes selfish and only focuses on his own career.

[@jayisnotakalyo]

JID doing a collab album with metro is crazy 2:45

[@Kiki-xx3fj]

But what you’re completely missing is Griselda Records wouldn’t even be a thing to praise if it wasn’t for Shady Records. Shady signed 2 different deals with Griselda - one contract for WSG and Conway to each release an album and then one group album - so a total of 3 projects on Shady. But the 2nd deal with Shady was a distribution deal. This deal allowed each Griselda member to completely do whatever they wanted and release as often as they wanted. This along with the nonstop play on Shade 45 really helped them blow up.

[@beatbyknobodye1581]

Wrong. Griselda was already big before the Em sign. They had a steam rolling. Signing to Shady is what killed their hype a bit

[@ST-wp9iz]

@@beatbyknobodye1581 Conway: "And I could never feel any Ill feelings towards Em and them niggas. They gave some 35 year old street niggas from Buffalo that’s been shot in the head and did jail sentences a chance and a opportunity to make it out the hood and take care of my family. So I’m forever thankful for that. So with that bein said, if you’re havin feelings or whatever towards bruh, leave me out of it please, cause I’m always gonna ride wit big bro"

[@Kiki-xx3fj]

Sorry but you’re the one who’s wrong. They were not big before signing to Shady. Do some research on their sales, streams etc.. They were barely known outside Buffalo in 2016. They definitely had some underground buzz but that’s it. They’ve all talked about living in the p’s before signing and now they’re all millionaires. Signing to Shady was life changing for all of them and I’m tired of ppl not doing their research before making vids like this and before making ignorant comments

[@redhunnid5142]

He did sign “The Weeknd” and kept him up under him for years didn’t let him drop any music or help him with features he literally signed him just to suppress him from being the biggest artist out of Canada same with Partynxtdoor kept them suppressed he doesn’t want anyone coming out of Canada bigger than him or on his level so The Weeknd signed a deal by selling his soul and got out of Canada and expanded he said it was the only way he could reach the top like a mainstream Drake he wanted to stay independent but Drake kept him from growing his music been the exact same since the start just a lot of suppression from Drake

Yelawolf has made some crazy music after leaving Shady!

i Rather Be Independant Than signing to a Record Label

[@antwanalston4572]

I definitely agree 1000% independent is the best even tho is a lot of work but you can do what you want to do and make a lot of huge money major label sucks at the end of the day

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN@@CreamPi-God

[@SeamanTheGreat]

It sadly is not that simple. Record labels provide funds and marketing for your record. So unless you are a Kanye where you can go independent and get a number 1 album most artists need a label

You should look into G59 records, they got a lot of good talent I can see the whole label blowing up here soon especially with germs recent album and with the boys dropping an album In a couple months with features from all of their artist, it's gonna be a good year for G59

It would’ve been nice to hear about Curren$y and JLR

[@Yungbasedonion]

Opium no question asked destroylonely and ken Carson are literally stars and are making waves by themselves

[@C1K450]

It doesn’t matter what label you are signed to. Your style of music gotta fit theirs in the first place. Why would a conscious rapper want to be signed to Opium when they mainly make underground mumble rap? Why would a pop star want to be signed to 1017 when they make trap music? Why be a rapper rapping about strip clubs and dancing and get signed to OTF that’s all about organized crime (allegedly)?
