Good Music. I think it would be damn near impossible to NOT make at least a decent album over there. Even if you signed and had absolutely NO talent with a team like that you could pull something good together. Some Kanye/Hit Boy beats. Have Common/Mos Def/Pusha T do some ghostwriting for you, then dont forget all the features you could get from labelmates.

My IDEAL Label AT The Moment Is MMG , I Like How Ross Handles his artists and he seems as passionate about MMG being successful as his own personal career
#2 would be Sony/RCA/Polo Grounds - Cuz of How well Asap Rocky Is Doin...
NOW WHAT ABOUT Y'ALL?????
Do you even know anything about that label besides ASAP Rocky?
Personally I'd want to be on GOOD Music, MMG, or Roc Nation (in that order)

In all honesty? I think JETS isn't a bad imprint to sign to if your really trying to do your own thing. If I WERE to be a rapper, i'd be in the J. Cole type of style (id try not to be as boring tho) so i'd stand out (JETS is sorely missing someone with a lot of substance IMO). Plus they got connects to Ski Beatz, Mr. Rogers (dude who produced JOB for spitta), the alchemist, Monsta Beats, and Cookin Soul who are all really good producers that I imagine wouldn't charge that much. Currensy is on pretty good terms with a lot of the big acts out there as well (and then consider the Wiz Khalifa connection) so collaborating wouldn't be too much of a stretch.
Yea as far developing your craft and trying to get a solid starter fan base, JETS isn't a bad look for a first signing.
however, I dont smoke weed tho, so that'd be an issue.

It all depends on what you're looking for!
YMCMR - for instant shine, but more than likely you won't have longevity and artistic freedom
Good Music - It might be a slow process, but you get the understanding of Kanye being a artist.
Roc Nation - really slow process, artist development, but they might take your career the furthest due to the industry connects they have.
Def Jam - Good luck getting a album release if you ain't name Beiber, Rihanna or Neyo.
MMG- If you're a street base rapper, this is the route to go and Ross has the connect to all 4 labels above.

Wale and Stalley are not street rappers bruh
that's the thing i hate about Roc Nation the life time wait for artist development... and that My boss have a 360 deal, then does the artist also some how gets swept in to that equation as well??

Personally, I don't feel the idea of being signed under another rapper. MMG would be my second choice, but either way an artist is going to have to do a certain amount of grinding on their own if they want to be taken seriously by any label. They have to generate a certain amount of interest and demand on their own. Big Sean, a new artist, managed to get an album on the shelves because he had a certain amount of buzz and a hit single. It's the same w/ MMG and how Wale and Meek Mill are a priority over the other artists signed to the label.
