First time I heard Thug was WW3 but again that’s different than actually being a 1017 artist being rolled out thru there and any curse that may apply there
Don’t know what the hell you’re talking about with Keef not even gonna entertain that i saw that happen in real time lol
I work in the industry and was also there in real time my dog !

Honestly don’t remember this but this is still 2013 after Interscope already has him lol
Articles that covered this acknowledge he was already on Interscope

So again outside of Flocka lol
I don’t doubt that they were in business at some point tho but Keef was already Keef lol the 1017 machine ain’t make him

Keef only released his debut with Interscope and then signed to 1017 with Guwop. Then Gucci had his "incident" and 1017 went under for a minute. Keef proceeded to release rest of his tapes independently. But dont get it twisted, Gucci put on Keef. Same with Thug. You said that 1017 never signed Thug and Keef, and thats false. Put some respect on Gucci name.

I see you editing post. And yes, the 1017 machine did make these artists: Thug Keef Waka Juiceman Hoodrich Pablo Juan Migos Metro 808 Mafia Zaytoven Mike Will Made It
If you ask any of those guys how they got their break in the industry, they'll all say the same person

Only ones you can really apply here is Zay Mike and I’ve already said OJ and Flocka
I’m not gonna keep going back and forth about artist who caught their first big record on non 1017 labels just bc Gucci worked wit them early lol
Point here isn’t to discredit Gucci himself but question if there is a curse on artists who actually sign to 1017
Only one who didn’t have some f***ed s*** happen to him and actually was signed there was Flocka and depending how u look at it OJ
Hell even if you wanna count Pablo Juan (which we shouldn’t lol I heard of him before that New 1017 s*** but whatever) he arguably is cursed too lmao
Okay but 1017 isn't one of the big 4 major labels. When A-listers become A-listers that's where they go to release their albums. Doesn't change the fact that Guwop put them all on. What is your argument here, that these artists didn't fulfill a record contract with Gucci or that Gucci wasn't responsible for putting them on?

I’m saying that there is seemingly a curse on your career if you actually sign and drop thru 1017

Aite i see you, that's true I guess. I'm just defending Gucci because his impact on the game is profound and he helped foster a lot of these guys' glowups. He mentored Thug and took Keef under his wing when Kanye passed on the opportunity to sign him. And tbh any indie label is cursed honestly, the way the industry is set up makes it impossible for indie labels to scale the same way a major label does. So what Gucci has done is so selfless because all he has done is help these artists careers. My point stands that every one of those artists has eternal gratitude for Guwop.
