CEO, Bryan Leach Of Polo Grounds Records Talks A$AP Rocky And Their Relationship
Bryan Leach had a sit down with XXL Mag and goes over everything A$AP Rocky. I was feeling Bryan saying that “Rocky is an old school artist.” That’s exactly where I would classify him. I think it’s why I’m off him right now. Throwback feeling. On another note, Bryan tells XXL that A$AP was basically skeptical of signing. He mentions that Rocky made him promise to do something for him if he signed. Because “Rocky’s an old school artist he doesn’t sign to labels he signs to people,” Bryan says, “If you can promise me that you’ll be as hands-on as you are now always, then we might be able to do something. It was important for me to be really hands-on and making sure that nothing got thrown to some big department or some big group of so-called experts, or shit like that.” Respect. As long as A$AP keeps making the music that I want to hear I’m good. Drop down bottom for more. JaaiR (JR)
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…
