… they’re just now letting this out? I thought this was common knowledge by now. *shrugs* It’s kinda interesting, however, that they show the progression from basement rapper with a dream to major label act with promise in the above clip. Congrats regardless.

hes been signed for like 2 years to interscope
Good job MGK. With his following, he won’t fall under the Bad Boy trap unlike others. It’s better than signing with Roc Nation though.
Good move, kiss your career goodbye MGK
they’ve purposely not told people about this and kept it hidden to make his career seem more grassroots. he’s been signed to diddy since last year, when you started to see mgk material pop up on blogs. it’s why I don’t fuck with him. fake ass
congrats MGK! hopefully Diddy doesnt fuck u over. this is real talent hopefully he wont go down the road Los went
This dude is just another gimmick rapper (Wiz Khalifa) that Diddy is going to try profit from. The guy has no actual emcee skills, he is all about his image, mostly the tattoo’s that he thinks are soooooo cool. Both MGK and Wiz are all about creating a diehard fanbase to eat off of because they know when it comes to actual talent they have none. They get by on people liking the image and persona, not the actual music. #FACT
WIZ KHALIFA >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> MGK.

is this the same guy? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNQC2urolDw
“They get by on people liking the image and persona, not the actual music” You could say that about any musician in the public eye dipshit.
look at the tattoes
@benny lava if you like hip hop artist more for their image than their music you’re basically gay. Why would it matter what another dude looks like or how he dresses? Music is music regardless of what the hell the artist looks like. Before you call someone a dipshit maybe you should think about the fact that you might be homosexual.
@ed that was in 2001, which would make MGK like 10 or 11 years old
MGK = Kreayshawn with an adam’s apple.
at least her album will see the light of day, though.
HAHA I said the same thing when I saw this post. I haven’t even really heard anything from this guy in a while on the blogs, so now it looks like he was signed out of no where with like zero hype. At least when Atlantic did this with Wiz Kush & OJ had already blown up. If a deal from Diddy came around I would gladly stay unsigned. He’s an alright dude to have around and party with, but as far as business, no fucking way. Diddy does not care about building any artist but himself in the last decade.
@ 1dopePuertoRicanfromJersey i agree my nigga just look at snoop dogg he hasnt been good in almost a decade but his persona is the reason he is still relavent!
he’s prolly gonna be rappin fast
Puffy’s gonna rape that boy’s publishing…
Dayum just like that another Cleveland artist hear now and gone in 8 seconds! Bad Boy records? The artist history is terrible, if B.I.G. was alive he would have eventually left 2, “Dayum why Puffy tryna stick me for my paper!!” Official_Ruxpin@twitter
so I have no reason to even look into this guy now? NEVER SIGN TO BAD BOY, WHEN THEY SAID THEY’D BE ON TOP 15yrs AGO TILL NOW IT WAS A LIE!
just gave diddy all of his money… wise up artists, it’s 2011. whats diddy gonna do for you?
worst move ever.
never hearda him…. cool story but hows his music?
….i guess this is my queue to peep it
Listen stupid, Persona is swagger/charisma/theatrics . Nothing to do with being gay. Why even bring that up you weirdo.? I want to be entertained by emcees not bored to death by nerds with shitty punchlines. Loosen up your jansport and get from under your moms’ skirt little boy.
