Is belly xo or roc nation
Hes actually signed to both,think that Roc Nation is distribution but not sure
Labels should only be looked at as stepping stones for artists not some group that had to succeed together. Thats why I hope TDE is done soon just like Roc a fella etc. Artists gotta move on
also not every signee needs to be a star
This is like asking “how could a label with kendrick lamar be a failure”
are you suggesting that TDE was a failure?

Interesting, all of his previous albums/projects were under roc, the new one says xo | roc
are you suggesting that TDE was a failure?
Schoolboy Q - CrasH Talk (Trash Talk) was horrid and was the definition of “came and went“
SZA - Is a climate change denier now?? Might be MAGA?
Kendrick - nowhere to be seen, may have straight up retired?
Ab-Soul - LMFAO
Skiiwalker - don’t even know dudes full stage name which should tell you all you need to know
Isiah Rashad - nowhere to be seen as well, did he just f*** around and decide he’s done with music?
Jay Rock - label paid for promo and positive press when his wack album dropped and, shocker, it’s nowhere to be seen again
Seriously, how can anyone support this? Who is leading the charge here? Their output is objectively suspect and i reckon their reign of most balanced label might be out the door
Last Great Vanity Record Label was MMG
Post streaming it really don’t make sense to sign to a rapper
are you suggesting that TDE was a failure?
Not a complete failure but their trajectory seemed much crazier than where it looks like it’s gonna end up with Kendrick leaving and no new adequate signees in sight
Niggas looked like Death Row with none of the weaknesses
Interesting, all of his previous albums/projects were under roc, the new one says xo | roc
Yeah hes under both,one is distribution one is managment,tho no clue which is which

yes.
Belly a great writer
Nav a strong producer
88 glam was cool while they lasted
I wouldn't call XO a failure from a label point of view.
I've heard like 1 song from the token white guy not really sure why he's there tho
Nav and Belly doing alright.
Just like Drake and OVO, their labels are managed and operated by Drake and Weeknd team so the focus not really on the artists on the label. Not to add Sal and Cash manage other artists not on thr label
how could a label with NAV be a failure?
Belly pretty much the only thing holding that label together, honestly.
Belly is roc nation tho
XO manages Young Thug and Doja Cat
Not XO lol. But yea i got you
How is OVO a failure? PND has had a super successful career, dvsn, Majid Jordan and Roy Woods are all doing fine, Popcaan is working hard & they just signed Smiley who is one of the hottest out there rn. OVO gives proper support and visibility to its artists but in the end it's their job to shine. There's a reason why their artists won't leave the label, they are happy at OVO
Lol you could say the exact same for XO
Literally could copy paste this with XO and it wont make a difference.
Drake stans bored so they try to run agendas
Most labels wish they could have a artist as big as NAV so saying XO is a failure is hilarious
Which labels
