LMFAO! HIM AGO JINE UP WID ADI, PON HIM LABEL!
, LOL.
Good move vp have too much of a monopoly over reggae music where the artist pays them too much of a distribution fee and basically gives vp the rights to their catalog. So dollar wise doing business with vp is not a good look
Couldn’t care less.
VP “buss” nuff Jamaican artiste. When no other label nah sign dem VP sign dem. Ah jus’ dat him get too large fi VP right ya now. Him ah seek bigga an betta tings inna life mi nuh blame him, but mi still haffi big up VP for signing 70% of Reggae acts signed to an International label. Mi mus big up Greensleeves to fi sign Reggae acts.
who gonna sign him now? Major label can’t make a dolla offa them artist so wha dem a go do now? Maybe independent? Anyway a good artist still but I don’t know rasta
