TI basically the unofficial fourth member of the 2000s Big 3, same way Future is that for the 2010s Big 3

how many rappers came out of OVO? Thats an R&B label

i already included Ye, he’s in a big 4 of Jay/Wayne/Ye/TI so stop bringing up good music

Come on bro

Baka Not Nice, obviously

Real talk OVO as a label shoulda been outta here a long time ago

how many rappers came out of OVO? Thats an R&B label

If you’re conceding that it’s an R&B label, why are you holding it to the standard of how many rappers came out of it?

You putting OVO on the same level as GOOD

aye man, Dot himself said his goal is to fade to the back and do what he failed to do for Black Hippy

Drake just platformed this nigga @Bushmanate avi at his last peak in 2023 before Blur tour and we saying rap labels don’t matter to these niggas

I’m just saying, compared to their legends and their closest peer, they ain’t done it yet. Even TI did it lmao

Extremely talented roster of artists, absolutely nonexistent marketing team

Nah I’m saying that none of them were ever as commercially successful as something like Young Money

What is the most successful rapper-ran label of the 2020s?

Is it Young Stoner Life?

I don't blame em, if Drake fw you, you'd want to sign too

Just insane how they all get put on the backburner. But same s*** happened with GOOD, happened with Brick Squad, Grand Hustle, TDE, Dipset, Hypnotize Minds, list goes on

I’d argue that he was cemented in the big three jay shouldn’t lowkey be in that cause he was fake old by that time it really was Wayne ti and ye and hov was like a older brother still wit them

The Weeknd signing with OVO is one of the biggest “what if’s” in the history of the music industry

Career would’ve been completely different

Depends what you count as 'successful'

Artists having freedom to release: 10k Global imo

Commercially? Probably Cactus Jack

Bro woulda been in the sweatshop after Kiss Land

If I was an artist and was getting some major traction I don’t think I’d ever sign with an artist-ran label because subconsciously I would know that no matter how successful I got I would always be seen as second fiddle to that artist

KTT really hates Kanye so much now that y'all are actually debating this?

Y'all know Drake is 38 now, right?

Any version of pre 2022 Kanye is hotter culturally than current Drake. Be fr

He literally is lol

Drakes fall off lyrically and artistically began at 28 (other than Honestly, Nevermind)

Kaynyes fall off lyrically began at 36 (Yeezus was amazing sonically, but lyrically was a huge drop off) and artistically was at 38 (TLOP and on had moments of greatness but also moments of obvious dog s*** and this grew more and more prominent as the years went on)

Im glad that didn’t happen.

The Weeknd would’ve felt obligated to give Drake tracks whenever he asked. I felt bad when I learned that Drake pressured The Weeknd to give him four songs for Take Care

Shut up b****

I think Ovo is like if drake made 10k lmfaooooo they have full creative control but it’s ran like a indie label

Imo I think the only crazy miss from Ovo was majid not being bigger. They are in an amazing spot in terms of success. They can shut down a festival and go on huge tours but man I think that second album had like 3 top 10 billboard hits on it

Dude is a known cornball I have no clue how he isn't banned

@ me next time p****
