Some of the artiste cannot learn to be patient and learn before they decide to break out , wat is it about the contract , they av made u who u are now be grateful wit that , wait till ur current ends then u can negotiate if they don't meet ur terms u walk away .. If u feel ur contract need modification cos of ur success u approach them for it ... We should learn to be grateful to people that has been of help !!

Nigerians floating label anyhow. Nonsense.
In the American music industry there are only three labels: Sony, Universal, and Warner Bros. Any other 'label' you hear about is actually a sublavel to one of these three, or an imprint. But in Nigeria you'll have one upcoming artist forming his own 'record label'. Lmao.
I don't agree 100% with you.Sony,Universal&Warner Bros are not "Labels" per say but mainly distribution companies for Labels.They are the ones that regulate and do distributions for Labels.But the ovo,cash monies are the 'labels' that sign artists and do mainly the works of a label.

All those are called sublabels or imprints.

The likes of Sony do not sign artists directly so you can't call them a label rather they are distribution companies. The Labels under them are the ones that signs and manages artists.Under this same Labels,they have the ''Sub Labels".Like in Kanye West GOOD MUSIC,there is VERY GOOD BEATS which is a Sub label of Good BEATS just like Young Money was under Cash money and so on.
So I would call the likes of Sony,*a distribution company*

Nah lol. Sony is a record label. When it comes to releasing the music at the end of the day, they have the final say. Good music, ROC nation, etc are in charge of finding, signing artists, etc but even on the documents, the artists sign to be parts of 'Sony music' or Warner Bros, etc.

Vanity labels are labels that bear an imprint that gives the impression of an artist's ownership or control, but in fact represent a standard artist/label relationship. In such an arrangement, the artist will control nothing more than the usage of the name on the label, but may enjoy a greater say in the packaging of his or her work.

When a label is strictly a trademark or brand, not a company, then it is usually called an "imprint"

A "sublabel" is a label that is part of a larger record company but trades under a different name.

That's the difference. So, a sublabel might appear to be doing most of everything but it really isn't, and example is when the (now late) Prince, one of my fav artists BTW, had to change his name to an unpronounceable symbol just because the parent label didn't agree with him and the music he wanted to release. He had to do that since the label had rights to any music released by 'Prince'. Also, Michael Jackson had issues with Sony and fought a very long legal battle with them, despite owning 'MJJ records' where he did all his music, which was really just a Sony sublabel.
