The Best Rap Labels To Sign To
Vložit

- Most of our favorite rappers are signed to a record label. Very few artists are actually 100% independent. Have you ever wondered what the best labels to sign to are? If you had the choice, which rap label would you sign to?

The best label to sign to…..” YOURSELF “
Say that again
Yeah
Songtradr thats fo sho
I dont have the financial backing or experience to be my own label... although I do agree with you cuz u could always get a job for money and books for a wiser view
Sadly, since labels run the game now, the highest an independent artist charted on billboard hot 100 was a 44 spot, then he signed quickly after that
Is not even about the label. Is about the type of contract artist sign if it's a good or bad contract
Thats true, some big artists might have some good deals in pretty cut throat labels
it be some labels like Alamo Records that do they artists dirty (smokepurpp, comethazine) they don't even promote their shit.
@@bowskee well actually , u have to pay to promote and , u get promotion and labels take some from profits
@@bowskee ik why they don't promote smokepurpp
Tupac Shakur fucked himself over when he joined Death Row Records.
Tde and dreamville not being on here is a crime not only that they’ll let you own your masters but there roster is currently the most stack in the game rn
Hy
True
They don't deserve to be on there especially dreamville it seems like they are a really good label but they are just like OVO they use their bigger names wayyyyt more and out more energy into them stopping most releases for the smaller names
I think tde is owned by interscope records
all true, no arguments here
Gotta read that contract. Gotta have leverage. Gotta bring something major to the table in order for the record label to give you what you want 💯
Quality Control is really moving foward with the sport thing.
When it comes to entertainment, you must remember the formula is very important. Here is what you should discuss: mainstream (white people), independent (african), alternative (spanish), and circuit (asian). This will help you in your career.
Please can you explain further
You forgot migos signed to 1017 at first before qc
Hey forgot A lot on this
True
No they didn't. They were only affiliated with 1017.
EL Dusty read Gucci autobiography he gave them 10k each to sign and he let them out the deal when he got locked up because he couldn’t really do a lot for them
Ain't gonna lie , every artist signed to *CMG* is *RICH AF* 💰 💰 💰 💰 💰 💰 💰....
On god
On gang I wouldn’t mind signing with him they need a girl
@@unknownl7515 wtf

YSL 🐍
CACTUS JACK 💚

HEY!!! PUT SUM RESPEK OWN MA NAYME
@@a_money_krazy 🤣🤣🤣
Has anyone actually looked at the empire roster? It's lowkey scary a lot of the artist that have died are signed to them.

You literally said Def jam of all labels??,
Gotta be out of your mind
Def jam is quite right now 😂😂
Def jam bs
Been waiting for this!!🙏
Havent watched it yet and already know Interscope and Quality Control finna b in there
Been waiting fo dis
Well, it's not perse that the contract is bad. Labels put a lot of money into an artist after they signed a contract. They just want their money back. When you sign a contract, you are basically borrowing money for your project and if it flops, you still gonna have to pay them back.
Great now that I know this, I have decided to sign with Quality Control. Edit: Oh wait… I don’t even make music.
LMAOOOO
Artists working with 10k projects looks exactly the same 😳😳
10k is known for their industry plants. trippie and 69 aren't but iann and poorstacy are (i think poorstacy is w 10k, him and iann are close)
Cap 🧢
I will definitely love to sign under the CMG or QC
I swear me to
Your time coming
no one :
my contract :
umm il make you famous?
XO records? Weekend, Nav and black atlass own their own masters which is a big win
you forgot belly
And they promote their artists well
Exactly
Will have my own label one day
Don't forget to sign me
U can do anything that you put your mind to💯
Go for it you can do it
I thought youngthugs YSL will be on the list or Travis scotts Cactus jack

it’s really travis and don making hits now
sheck did have a song of the summer
sofaygo been buzzin
luxury tax, idek
smokepurpl got dropped
they just need more artists
@@sterlingparson4278 smokepurpp???? I didn't know he signed to cactus jack
They both r too small rn
@@dukeysr8989 he never signed it was for publicity and to promo his song with Travis loads of labels do this
Exactly his Dum Ass said Def Jam this is not 2007 lol 😂
Love it 🔥
This channel is so underrated...he doesnt get the credit he deserves!!
Nah , it gets the proper recognition it deserves 💯
First here...QC all the way
WE HERE LET'S GO💯👈
Dude you had def jam recordings as the worse on the last one, what are you doing???
Right I thought he had it on there, it’s starting to make me question if he’s actually spitting facts 🤔
It's a sucky label
Def jam is to wrong smh
Grand Hustle was founded in 2003 and the label became independent in 2013.
Fuck a Label stay independent would never sign my life away for a lil fame and fortune💯
Idk about the others, but I'm pretty sure Empire gives u all the rights to ur masters
Marketing yourself make it a unique lable full on creative idea and inivation is the name of the game
quality control music!!! You forgot about Maybach Music group.
Yes Rick Ross good to
There's no best label at the end of the day they'll "Finesse" you, low-key ‼️
Na u will finesse urself😂😂y’all really actin like these grown mfs workin at the label is makin y’all not read y’all contracts dummy’s😂😂
Grand hustle and poping like that
most interestin topic
Artist here
9:52
+ lil migo , est gee 🔥💀
Dreamville
Birdman is the one dislike😂
why did iggy move away to empire? Why isn't Travis still signed to it? Why did QC give Migos the lawyer they use? Who is the lawyer going to defend when shot hits the fan? This is entertaining but let's talk contracts
10k projects here I come
Grand Hustle been around way longer than just since 2013 lol
7:05 “without the whole selling your soul part”, yeah... okay buddy😐
100k comin up too
I'm making my own record label and have goals to be prolific. Good at designing gangsta logos and album covers.
hmmmm can i join in the record label
What’s up Broski 🦋
ayyye CMG !
Only do joint ventures deals.
My dream label CMG!
“ number 6 * youtube ad * Trade in your new damaged phones “
Grand Hustle?? - I don't know if people want to sign there after they gonna find out about the T.I. allegations...🤨🤔
😭😭 everything ant true honestly I don’t go off words
Quality Control issa label that only let 1 artists go big
Not fax. Most if not all of them shine ✨️ Strong azz roster
10k projects is my dream 💯
Independent is the wave
Preach
Rather stay independent
For me would be definitely Grand Hustle💯💞
Really? After all the T.I. allegations? 😳
How do you get in contact with some of these labels?... like sending demos and stuff
that’s not how it works YOU have to put in the work n they will find YOU
@@dilanarellanes7847 how do you put in work or advertise when you don’t even have the financial strength to do that
@@hbkmaurice9624 EXACTLY that’s why it’s so hard to make it ... y do u think all these rappers are trappers before or come from a dr*g dealing background?? that’s how they got their money for studio time ,promotion booking etc.. plus it’s a something to talk/rap about
@@dilanarellanes7847 damn. You got a suggestion for me
@@hbkmaurice9624 i’m not saying be a clout chaser but before u even drop music u should get ur followers up on instagram bro organically tho don’t buy them..because who knows bro u might be the most talented guy in ur city but if people barely even kno of u those songs are gonna go to waste because no ears/eyes are paying attention or looking at u n make sure ur music is quality as in make sure they’re mixed n mastered i remember back in the day 2006-2010 i used to b a big gucci mane song n i recently went back to those songs n dude they don’t hit the same they sound like shit bc they weren’t mixed/masted they sound like they were recorded n a motorola razor lol n u don’t need a state of the art studio for u just need a laptop n someone that knows what they’re doing (engineer) if u kno how to do that that’s even better n that’s what’s next ur gonna need a team that are all focused on making u the next big thing that’ way u guys have more of a chance to get noticed since ur not the only one putting in work and to save u a lil bit of money so u don’t have to pay for these things as much just pay them for they’re time cause u gotta remember u gotta be ok w starving for a while if u really wanna do this this isn’t a get rich quick scheme find an in house producer,engineer,camera man,promoter,manager that’s gonna find shows for u to perform at get ur name out there u feel me? good luck man .. n i’d be more than happy to see ur grind n help u out on stuff n get ur name talked about out here in l.a follow me on instagram dude @slimarell2gd good luck bro bro 😎
Grand hustle yea right
I wanna get number 2
GRAND HUSTLE....... I would respect it..... T. I.,.... tha realeast, 💯
I’m signing with empire soon
Good luck bruh
I see who are the good labels are now
CMG been the hardest🔥🔥
QC just shot through the roof after the Migos.you just know a nigga is under QC by the amount of diamonds and chains with the cash influx.with their excellent marketing overall the QC GANG is the dream sign up for a new age TRAPSTAR 💎🥂👌🏾
What about 4PF

#FreeHoodrichPabloJuan 🏁
Def Jam iffy
10k is fire
This channel has a video about “the worst rap labels” and that video has def jam at #1 too. What??
👁️V🌞 never made a bad song👑
🚮🚮🚮🚮🚮🚮🚮🚮🚮
Too many bad song, and Def jam ain't relavent like b4
Bro they said DEF JAM WAS A BAD LABEL TO SIGN TO
Knew Def jam would make it
its the new 1017!! old 1017 had sum good artist fasho but its sum different bout the New 1017
for me is either 1017 or QC
Someone need to sign KO Styles, look up 27 XO! 🤦🏾♂️🔥😂😂
signed to my momma !
in blood
i want to sign to one
I don’t hear nobody from QC complaining
Interscope didn't make the list?
i spotted a sneak 💀
aye dawg you didn’t have to do SoundCloud rappers like that either when you were talking about CMG, most popular rappers in the game right now built a foundation for themselves off SoundCloud so don’t make it sound like SoundCloud rappers gotta sign with a major label.
In reality the is no such thing as a good record label
Exactly
only good contracts
Tan Cressida and Stones Trow
Empire and def jam is goated
Atlantic has entered the chat
What about TDE?
lets gooooo
there is also united master cuz its independente
They a scam

Says UMG is the best and somehow excludes it
Let me start with the clear miss; you've failed to include 300 Ent - from Snot to Meg to Young Thug to street rappers like Tee Grizz to small artists in development like Whiterosemoxie to YNW Melly; omitted because Migos, who've problems w every label, didn't understand their own deal? Because Rich The Kid followed the same?; if 10K Projects are listed purely because of Grainge, you're listing 300 for Lyor without mentioning their dominance (and good people in the building - small set-up, family-like). CMG aren't a record label. It's a collective which 'signs' Gotti's runners, right hands, etc. Why is Grand Hustle next. This is so misinformed. Why would Grand Hustle be considered hot today. They don't have a single artist out.....and the ones you listed, Travis, Iggy, saw no success with the label....why Gucci Mane's label...they have 1 priority-artist...I work with people at 10K Projects, why are they listed next....most of the roster didn't make it, and a lot of them just got cut...and they only push 2 artists of the roster...why is Def Jam there...they've been failing for so long that they just relaunched and rebranded themselves to work with UK artists. 300 Ent, Interscope & Columbia run rap..
Thoughts on Warner Music Group?
Aftermath for Dre
What about Atlantic and otf
5:30 forgot the Migos, they were Wop's artists, but before he was getting locked up, he gave them to P at QC
But didn’t you have Def Jam #1 on your worst labels to sign to video too
He just makin videos at this point 🤣
Tydj
YSL
I would go with XO
Ikr XO is perfect Cash will make sure you successful and weekend,NAV,belly
YOU GOT THIS LINE UP TOTALLY WRONG WHY WOULD YOU PUT DEF JAM #1 WHEN THEY DONT EVEN HAVE A FREAKING CEO RIGHT NOW THE LABEL IS HURTING RIGHT NOW YOU Should’ve NAME INTERSCOPE RECORDS AND EPIC RECORDS AND DONT FORGET
RCA RECORDS WHO OWNS 75% of Radio play with HIP-HOP & R&B 👍👍👍👍
U missed reo cragun he was signed to 10k too
