Glitch - artist to artist. Get your own team of people around you. Find some friends who are interested in film, merch, promotion, road crew, DJ, and management. all that. you have a good team around you that you can trust. and you keep control because they are all working for you. If you haven't met too many of them, take any class in the Music Technology program at a local community college even. right location and everyone in there is hungry. best of luck
Kinda disagree with this whole label thing...one thing for sure is that internet has leveled the playing field. An independent artist can go real far without signing. Power of social media can do wonders
Rappers have been told this for years. Labels are useless now thanks to the internet. Start with a manager and a small crew and it will be the same, maybe better. Labels don't do shit no more. They only count on artists' popularity to sustain themselves
Nah, you can only get so big without a label, then you hit a ceiling. The label gives you a fuckload of money up front, then puts a fuckload more money behind promoting any big song or album you have. Without the label you have to put up all that money yourself and unless you're a multi-millionaire, there's no way you could sustain that type of support on your own.
But having a label is like living in your rich friend's mansion. You live a life of luxury but you don't own anything. And one day, your friend decides to settle down with his girl and kicks you out. At the end of the day, it all depends on how much value you give to your own work and your freedom.
Yeah, he had the same mindset as lil pump they just wanted the money, now when the nigga got everything he can possibly want now he regrets it because it's dull as hell now and he wants to make music.
Pump is like uzi right now dont care about anything but money and saw the 0's in the contract now uzi regrets it, wait for 2019 when pump is forgotten and chained to a contract
You are a damn fool if you are signed to a label in 2017. It's been shown countless times for several years now that you can do this all on your own. You maintain all your material, artistic direction, etc, etc. Don't be tied down to these Jews. Do what Jay said and learn from em. Own your own shit.
Raf_Attack100 Take a look around the entertainment business. Over 90% of the music and movie business is run by Jewish people. Since when was saying Jews own everything a bad thing? You the type to listen to Jay's record and not take anything away from it. You read everything I wrote and only seen "Jews" and got triggered. We, excluding you can learn a lot from the Jewish folks. The musicians got all the talent but only get 1% of the profits from said talents.
Pharaoh Sounds dude was on the biggest two songs of the year after he got sign, had numerous features on his album including Pharrell. Shit like that don't happen for most unless they're on a label
smitty werbenjagermanjensen That's anything in life! You can't make money off SoundCloud and self publishing unless you get a lucrative distribution deal like Chance.
The fans of this music are just as much to blame as the artist who promote it. The one thing i say has really changed when it come to L.U.V is the way he approaches his music. That’s was the only change that really surprised me. He allowed Atlantic to shop him around, all over the place in order to find him different sounds. Not thinking it was meant to change him as a artist
Psychedelic Rabbit Hole “Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,” Hebrews 6:1 PRAISE BE TO ALLAH AND YAHWEH!
Dis shit don’t make no sense, it’s like wats da right situation to be in these days ?! U stay indy & come album time u gotta shell out all da money for promo etc but if u sign wit a label they take of care all of dat but slow up ur output process. The music game rele has changed
What these younger rappers like lil uzi don't understand is when they sign to a major record label the major label is in charge of their career especially on those 360 deals. They decide what get released and when from the label's Executive Directors board (Don't they watch Empire which shows this to those who don't know..?) Regardless, with the mentality of the newer generation lack the attention span of more then usually a week or so... he should of stayed independent if he wanted to stay relevant and make more money because most of these newer rappers are disposable like yesterdays garbage.!
Ismael Alvarez Well y'all shit out of luck he can't release shit unless the label feels like being nice and allowing him to release his OWN shit. It's crazy but he sold his soul and lost EVERYTHING he ever worked hard for if y'all are true fans of his yall would listen to the words he's saying. If your dreams are to make music NEVER sign a deal stay independent and be satisfied with whatever money you make everything that looks good ain't good. At the end of the day everything you have is still yours and you're still have morals money is NOT the same but hey greed is a terrible thing.
Crp Villain If it’s a fairy tail: 1) What was Dave Chapelle talking about before he tried to escape to Africa on the Oprah show? 2) What was Micheal Jackson talking about immediately before “they” killed him? 3) How did Matt Groening already know about 911 more than half a decade before it happened? 4) Why is Dave Chappelles cousin saying they cloned Dave and killed the original? 5) Why was/is Alex Jones being blackmailed for speaking the truth? 6) How did Matt Groening know about Ebola more than half a decade ago? 7) Why was Jay Z spotted in a picture full of free mason and high ranking illuminati members? 8) Why are satanic symbols becoming more and more prevalent in TV shows, movies, music videos and all other areas of the media? If I don’t hear an answer by 3 days, il forced to realise that you............. are a fuckin idiot
COSMIC TURNERRRR!!! Lol I was gonna touch on that issue next along with Martin Lawrence running in the streets screaming about " they trying to kill me" and some other stuff. People don't know but the Illuminati is true.
Ralu Nwosu kind of a label? A promo team and endorsement deal is not the same thing as signing to atlantic. hes still on his own clock. unless people think you have to literally be a one man army to be considered independent.

Dj Ak should ask for a Feature from one of these new age rappers, due to how much some of them owe their success to him
Mozues Olympian true words nigga
Uzi tryna buy back his soul
Ak would’ve signed a deal to OVO even if he was getting 2% percent of the money if that means he’s working for Drake
Stafock Hyde 2% of ovo income prolly still a lot
shit i would too. if im working with drake no doubt imma get bigger and bigger fuck that 2percent its worth it
Savage Da Clown I kind understand u 😂😂
Record label: we don't really care if you cry should have never signed on the dotted line
meetcarter W
That’s why I’m surprised these new rappers are singing
Lil pump signed a 360 deal really
Tru but lil pump don't really got brain cells like that so it's not surprising
@legendofJefta - it's not that it's just all he wants is money he doesn't care about his music.
D R A C O Same goes for Lil Uzi Vert or we wouldn't be here don't you think?
Yeah, he had the same mindset as lil pump they just wanted the money, now when the nigga got everything he can possibly want now he regrets it because it's dull as hell now and he wants to make music.
Pump is like uzi right now dont care about anything but money and saw the 0's in the contract now uzi regrets it, wait for 2019 when pump is forgotten and chained to a contract

I’m only here to see uzi do the flexible fruit roll up dance. Nothing more, nothing less.
Idk who that makes gayer, you or him. I think probably you since he actually gets paid to be flexible.
The fans of this music are just as much to blame as the artist who promote it. The one thing i say has really changed when it come to L.U.V is the way he approaches his music.

Man he should of known that would happen shame on him its like putting your hand in fire and not expecting to get burned

he truly not independent his promo team that is kind of a label and apple music might be his 1st label in coming time,
Wali Saifi no he isnt dumbfuck
Ralu Nwosu kind of a label? A promo team and endorsement deal is not the same thing as signing to atlantic. hes still on his own clock. unless people think you have to literally be a one man army to be considered independent.
It be your own record label
