On Signing Big Sean to His Record Label:
In 2007, the rapper signed with Kanye’s G.O.O.D. Music label, which is owned by Universal Music Group. Last week, Big Sean announced on Twitter that after 14 years, he has stepped away from the company, writing, “That’s a forever brotherhood, but business wise, I had to start getting a bigger cut! I worked my way out that deal.”
“Lemme tell you that when I die, on my tombstone, I’m gonna say I deserve to be here because I signed Big Sean,” Kanye said on Drink Champs. “The worst thing I’ve ever done was sign Big Sean. I know this man’s mama, bro. I’ve changed this man’s family and both John Legend and Big Sean, when I ran for office [in 2020], got used quick by the Democrats to come at a boy that actually changed their life and that’s some sellout s–t and I don’t rock with neither of them and I need my apologies.”
Big Sean responded on Twitter, posting photos of him and Kanye talking with another friend and writing, “Was just wit this man, he ain’t say none of that!!! And this was after the interview! I’m dying laughing at you @kanyewest”
“The dems?” Big Sean tweeted. “No I didn’t. I didn’t get used by anybody or endorse anyone publicly at all. Cause I’m not political. That’s what’s hilarious, none of it’s true n he doesn’t even know what he talking about. I’m rollin”
