Da Kid has made history, being the first artist signed to Procter & Gamble’s TAG Records [click to read], a label that’s being guided by the expertise of Jermaine Dupri. Beyond just making history, the Brooklyn emcee has a history of his own, not often discussed in the chatter about corporate labels. Monday afternoon, Q told HipHopDX, “I was signed to Violator a couple of years ago, [within a] a group called The Franchise. It included me, Red Cafe and Gravy. Red Cafe is from Konvict Muzik, and Gravy’s playing Biggie Smalls in [Notorious].” |
