THE BEST DOWN SOUTH INDEPENDENT RECORD LABEL IS...
HYPNOTIZE MINDS
CASHMONEY RECORDS
NO LIMIT RECORDS
SWISHAHOUSE
RAP-A-LOT
BALLIN RECORDS
PROPHET ENTERTAINMENT
TVT/BME RECORDS
SO SO DEF
DISTURBING THE PEACE
Ha ha you serious? None of those other labels hold a candle to Rap-A-Lot, they been around since the late 80's and stll a factor in the game. The rest have yet to prove their not just some flash in the pan.
RAL hands down
Both No Limit and Rap-A-Lot: As far as artists, C-Murder, Mystikal, Mac, Soulja Slim (RIP), Geto Boyz, Trae, Z-Ro, Devin The Dude. They're the main reason the South still can't be fucked with in my opinion.
Rap-A-Lot has droppd classic albums and successful ones but THESE days their promo has fallen off....Trae's and Z-Ro's albums havent sold well, for instance.....
As for success, yes NO LIMIT takes that cake because they did it big b4 Cash Money and HCP came up on the rise, real talk
