Plies Getting Ready To Drop Album
Read 15758 Times Since Posted on 0000-00-00 Determined to never make himself a victim of label drama, Fort Meyers, FL rapper Plies is taking charge with a forthcoming album and his record label, Big Gates Records. The company, which Plies co-owns with his brother, represents another chapter for the lyricist. He plans on releasing a string of artists on the label, but not before learning a bit more about the music business. "I'm that motherf**er who considers myself a realist," Plies said. "I like to make sure all my seeds are planted right and once I get my situation right I'll start looking for talent." "I don't wanna have n**as signed to me and n**as waiting to come out in two or three years because I would never be cool with that," Plies said. "I would never do the misfortunes of locking up motherf***ers and signing them and stringing them along. I ain't into that as a business man." As for his current recording home Slip-N-Slide/Atlantic Records, Plies is adamant about handling his own business, rather than leave it in the hands of label personnel. "From the standpoint of me, I believe in me," Plies said. "I've created a situation that has been unheard of in the streets. For me to be getting $15,000 a show to be doing packed shows and having 2,500 people is an abnormal situation. This s**t don't come around every year, so I believe in me." Plies new untitled album is scheduled to hit stores on Slip-N-Slide/Atlantic
in 2007.
