TAG Records: Where Smelly Artists Get Stinking Rich

April 10, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Tag Warning Jermaine Dupri, legendary producer, announced today the formation of a new record label, TAG records. The hip hop label is being formed by Island Def Jam and Proctor & Gamble’s TAG brand and will be head by JD. Not only will TAG records release music via traditional sources but has a massive built in brand marketing department. Apparently, artists signed to the label will be featured in various TAG commercials. Considering how kick ass these commercials have been of late, this idea might actually work.

Artistic credibility is at stake when having not one- but two GIANT corporations take over your career and make you a viral video star via deoderant commercials… We’ll just have to see. Their webpage www.tagrecords.com brings you to their well laid out but friend-less Myspace.

New artists will be named officially in May.

Let the Internet/Music Rumor Mill commence!

And Now a Word from our sponsor -Jermaine Dupri.

“We’re confident the partnership will make a positive impact and bring opportunities to undiscovered urban creativity and vision.”

Creativity in Urban music?!

WTF- What do you think this is- the 90s?!?

“This is a non-traditional approach that blends our most valuable assets:

the artist and their music, with the power of brand marketing.”

They forgot to mention their other valuable asset…

Deoderant commercials where hot girls go crazy over smelly dudes.
