RAMROD 104,511 Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Vanity labels are next to worthless. Vanity how? It is real label. Only under Cash Money. And CM is under UMG. Maybe Lil' Wayne had a beef with Birdman or something. Need to be smarter managing his own label. The way Jay Z does to his.

Kayla 7,595 Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Labels suck, but I also get it. You're signed to them, you're representing them and in turn they help you give your art to the masses. However, if your art isn't on par with what they want to see from you they won't release it. Like...I'm an educator. When I give a program to the public, I'm free to teach them the necessary information in my own creative way. However, if I don't hit on the points that my employer needs/wants me to talk about, they won't allow me to go do programs anymore- because I'm representing them, and they have a message they're trying to convey. Thankfully, I believe very much in what they do and have no problem creatively teaching the information they ask me to include in my programs, and they are flexible in that if I wanted to deviate a bit to talk about another relevant/related topic it'd be permitted. Unfortunately, the music industry is viewed more as a business than a place for art and creativity. When signing to a record label you risk losing your creative freedom, at least some of it, yet benefit from the resources the label has- IF you follow their rules. Artists aren't like independent contractors- they're employees in this kind of scenario. The artist should be in charge of what their name and face is on.

Maybe Lil' Wayne had a beef with Birdman or something. Need to be smarter managing his own label. The way Jay Z does to his. No. From Wiki: A vanity label is an informal name given sometimes to a record label founded as a wholly or partially owned subsidiary of another, larger and better established (at least at the time of the vanity label's founding) record label, where the subsidiary label is (at least nominally) controlled by a successful recording artist, designed to allow this artist to release music by other artists he or she admires. The parent label handles the production and distribution and funding of the vanity label, but the album is usually released with the vanity label brand name prominent. Usually, the artist/head of the vanity label is signed to the parent label, and this artist's own recordings will be released under the vanity label's brand name. Creating a vanity label can be an attractive idea for the parent label primarily as a "perk" to keep a successful artist on the label's roster happy and a venue to bring fellow artists to the public's attention. And on the page, (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanity_label) Young Money is listed... He is though xD You are ****ing rude. What are you, 12?

ALX 170 Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 What..... I thought he owned the label God, labels suck yeah I was like doesn't he run Cash Money I'm confused anyway, I'm sure it's because of their release schedule. With how many songs he creates and how he forces himself and other artists to write I'm sure they feel it's not quality Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
