Since they signed the Shady deal I think WSG has released 3 projects and Conway at least 5, all of them pressed on vinyl (and sold out) and available on all streaming services. Whatever deal they signed doesn’t seem to be hindering their creativity, drive or direction one bit, IMO.
 
Just a gentle reminder that I think Chance The Rapper’s The Big Day is the most disappointing rap release this decade in terms of anticipating an artist’s album. In other words, this is the biggest drop in quality I’ve ever seen this decade in terms of a follow-up album. I’m still shocked by how awful The Big Day is.

I hope Chance The Rapper is doing well mentally and is not letting any of the negative opinions of The Big Day affect him much!

No they don’t. Most artists don’t have a sexual assault allegation, trust me. Otherwise VMP wouldn’t be pressing any vinyl as they are very against sexual assault.

VMP are strict when it comes to selecting who they press. If the artists has many/obvious sexual assault allegations against them, they will not bother to press any album by them.

Allegation.

I can say you tried to rape me and you got an allegation lol and I bet even tho u aint heard, almost every hiphop artist has some crazy "allegations"

Storf also told me he would press 2pac up if he had the chance regardless of his history.. so if he they wont push out NAS its entirely cause they aint liking NAS cause they doing everything else xD

I checked rym for the first time in a while and I was surprised to see that To Pimp A Butterfly had broken the all-time top 10.
Pretty sure that's the highest any album by a black artist has ever gotten on that site

I've never really gone on RYM but there is no way in hell Radiohead deserves to take up three spots in any top 10 of all time list, and In Rainbows is my favorite album.
