The music community of the internet world was
surprised last week with some unusual tweets from
lil Wayne, he claimed his record label doesn't want to
release his album; THE CARTER V. I mean, young
money cash money billionaires is like Lil Wayne's
family, run by his surrogate dad birdman aka baby.
So no one will have ever predicted anything will ever
go amiss between the record label and the self-
proclaimed best rapper alive. But everything seems
to have fallen apart between them.
Few weeks ago, Wayne's recordlabel mate, Tyga
also took to twitter, taking shots at his YMCMB label
for not releasing his album on time and as planned.
He even threatened to make bootleg copies of the
album available online for free. We all thought he was
just being a crybaby and all, but we never knew the
label had issues.
Here in Nigeria, Ysg and Choc city had issues with
their former artists months ago. Vector, Brymo and
Jesse Jags. Court orders were sent all over the
place, jailing and court proceedings took place and
we couldn't but help wonder when the love these
people had for one another went sour. The three had
to leave their record labels, and their careers haven't
really being that rosy as compared to what they once
had with the labels. Will Lil Wayne and Tyga have
issues with their careers If they ever leave ymcmb?
Are record labels exploiting artistes? Are artistes
demanding too much from record labels? Don't
artistes understand record deals? These questions
should be examined by upcoming artistes and labels,
so as not to fall victims to one another. But in the
meantime, we will keep enjoying music!!!
