Congrats homie. Man, what more can I say...I'm just happy that you found a label that can represent you in the best possible way with your image.
I know that's part of why you refuse deals and I can't blame that. That's just not selling out for money. Why the hell should you? I've never heard of End of Earth but I'll look them up. I know what it's like to refuse a deal too because it's not right for you, so I know you're smart about yours (always knew that anyway).
So while we on the subject, is the next album written or in the works to be written and what direction will it take? Basically will it show difference between previous work?
Fiev.
so they will be clearing your samples....cause you know sample based production adds up for indie labels.....
it nice to see you get the deal you wanted......big respect....now is your time to make so noise
Thanks everyone, I appreciate the love. It's not a major label or anything, so don't worry... I won't be famous anytime soon..lol..
Word, Fiev. The label is brand new, less than 6 months old... their website isn't functional yet, still under construction. www.endofearthrecords.com
But yeah.. Budget, creative control, 100% retention of publishing, split ownership of masters, and the majority of album profits return to me... It's one of the best contracts I've ever seen. I had to do it.
The next album is almost completed. I've got a couple more joints to record, but it will be turned in to the label soon. Video shoot for the first single will be end of July. Single release will be early to mid August, and album release should be late September. Album is titled "Same As It Never Was" and it's on a mid 90's, grimy Hip-Hop vibe. All sample-based production with gritty vocals and rhymes. My favorite era of hip-hop.
So this means you're still doing your day job but pushing for a label too now right? Nothing wrong with that just asking homie.
Yup, just like the majority of indie signed artists.
Hopefully I can make it work.
Ram, thanks for checking out the squad. I look forward to working with some of these cats in the future.
