Kid Ink Expresses His Excitement About Signing A Deal With RCA
Deals are being signed left and right. Kid Ink had announced on January 3rd that he is a member of RCA records. The same label as A$AP Mob members Rocky and Ferg. The first single with RCA will be “Bad A**,” with Meek Mill and Wale (LOVE). He’s def. one of the men of the hour. Kid Ink checks out XXL Mag and gets into things like how he felt about signing that deal, a video for the “Bad A**” single, why he signed with RCA, and what other record labels he was looking into before he signed. “They understood what we were doing independently as a whole and I felt like they had a good background of people in there, like J. Grand, who come from an independent background and understand us and understand the creativity and the music and the control we wanted to have,” the Kid says about RCA. Kid Ink explains that it takes a while for a deal to be completely set in stone, but before he sat down and made the long-term decision labels like Atlantic (on his heels heavy), Bad Boy, and even MMG’s own Rick Ross reached out to him personally. That would have been dope, because he’s different from Meek, Ross, and Wale. Kid was doing major things as an indie artist, but making this choice will show to be a GREAT one. I’m happy for the Kid. Cheers to 20,000+ in the first week of sales off this deal. Drop down…
