ILoveMakonnen Has Cut Ties With The OVO Sound Imprint!
ILoveMakonnen has chosen to pack his bags and leave Drake’s OVO Sound label. This means Makonnen is now only signed to Warner. Bros Records.
Makonnen would detail the split in a statement for Pitchfork:
“I cannot thank OVO, 40, Oliver, Future & Mr. Morgan, enough for all that they have done for my career. No words can express how much I appreciate Drake for being a part of the success of Tuesday. I’m sure the haters will have something negative to say, but all in all my choice to be solely on Warner Bros. Records was the right thing for me and for my best interest. Sorry there’s no beef to report, DRINK MORE WATER.”
It seems that the split is due to lack of readiness to release his debut album under the label, which was originally scheduled to be released last summer.
With all of that said it is good to see that both parties were able to part without hard feelings or issues. It seems that Makonnen will be just fine!
