Young Chop Questions Interscope Records Dropping Chief Keef

    In a recently released interview with ForbezDVD, producer and Chicago native Young Chop spoke on the recent news that Chief Keef has been dropped from Interscope Records. 

    During the conversation, Young Chop questioned the decision of the label to drop Chief Keef after he had sold 200,000 units of his debut album, Finally Rich

    “What’s so funny about it [is that] his album sold what the fuck its requirements were supposed to be,” Young Chop says. “So how did they drop him? He sold 200,000. He recouped. I don’t know what the fuck [is] going on over there. His singles did good. Every single he put out did good and topped charts.”

    1. This fat Whoopi Goldberg nigga delusional. The album didn’t sell 200K and the singles didn’t do that well. Interscope dropped Chief Keef becuase he wasn’t making them any money and he keeps getting into some bullshit.

      1. It didn’t sell 200,000 in the first week but do your research on total sales to date it did sell good for todays market.

    2. barely pushed 200k in a year with all that buzz and kanye remixing his shit. probably should have showed up to that video shoot with wiz and fif…

    3. If the labels dropped 97% of these new non lyrical no skills on the mic wack rappers,then hip hop would be dope again.And the labels should balance it out a bit,and drop whoevers signing these wack rappers in the first place.Do what nas said on stillmatic “destroy & rebuild”..straight up lol

    4. “There’s a difference between rap and hip hop. Anybody can rap. But when it comes to “real” hip hop shit,true lyricism shit[only real mcs can come correct!]” Kay slay “The original man” mixtape (Fucking dope mixtape.Real hip hop)That shit bangs from start to finish.Salute to Kay slay for that dope shit

    5. i always thought that it was strange that on keef’s album, all the features were from guys who could be his father. jeezy, ross, french, 50…wiz the only one that made sense on there. interscope never understood what they had and keef way too young to grasp the situation that he was in. the label was waiting for another “don’t like” and when it didn’t come…

    6. They DROPPED his AZZ because : 1) His album was a HUGE FAILURE, 2) He & his crew were a NIGHTMARE to deal with (arrogant, unintelligent, unprofessional) & 3) He was constantly IN court, jail, or legal trouble; WHICH PART of these EPIC FAILS doesn’t your fat, ignorant azz UNDERSTAND?! Plus he’s untalented, misses shows & court dates & is one of the BIGGEST F*CKUPS in history! CHIEF F*CKUP to all of us……

    7. Last numbers got Finally Rich at 222k but he wasnt at 200k by December 2013 and it was supposed to be 250 or they could kill his contract.

    8. This guy is a moron. Keef got dropped because he can’t stay out of jail long enough to make another album and do promo for it.

    9. because they didnt want to lose future money on retard?

      just because he recouped doesnt mean he wouldve the next time around…

    10. he sold 50k first week with all that buzz that he dont have no more.

      he skipped out on a big budget video shoot with 50 cent and wiz khalifa for a song that could have been a pretty big single for the label

      next album would be 25k and the next 10k, they cutting their losses, that 5 album contract would put them in the red

    11. I don’t think he got dropped for what his numbers were, I think he got dropped for what Interscope predicted his numbers would be in the future.

      1. until I looked at the check of $8170 , I did not believe that my father in law had been actualey taking home money parttime from their laptop. . there moms best

        frend has done this 4 less than 9 months and just paid the mortgage on there house and purchased McLaren F1 . original site……///////..

    12. Chief Keef, Lil Reese and Fredo destroyed their opportunity by abusing drugs that made them stupid and lazy. Make no mistake, when they were coming up they were nice and had potential. Too bad they weren’t smarter like Chop and Durk
