Despite claiming his next album will be his last, Logic has announced his own record label — Elysium — which he celebrated in a recent Instagram post. “Im excited to Announce I have founded my very own record label created for the Love and creative freedom of its artists!” he captioned the photo. “This label is everything I have ever stood for.”
In a YouTube video, the Everybody rapper further explained his intention with the imprint and at the same time, introduced the initial roster, which includes his wife Jessica Andrea, Big Lenbo, Damian Lemar Hudson and John Lihndal. Elysium appears to mark the beginning of a new chapter for the 27-year-old MC.

“Elysium was created mainly because I don’t trust anybody else with the precious cargo that is my family,” Logic said. “I wanted to create a place where they can feel free and literally do whatever they want because this is so much more than just music. It really is a family. So many people that support me are gonna support these artists. What we’re all here to represent is following your dreams because each and every artist that was here didn’t have anything hand to them.
“This is just another avenue that I wanted to create a label, a staple,” he continued. “I just knew in my heart that I wanted so much more than just to rap. And when I first got my six-figure advance, I’ve turned that into millions and millions and millions of dollars as a businessman that I invested into myself, into my company, into my brand. And I’m now taking that same business mindstate and mentality into this record label as well.”

Love and passion dont pay the bills hope he has an endgame

“How come these motherfuckers can’t seem to let it go /
Judging rap by race instead of the better flow /
Who gives a fuck who made it, I penetrated and innovated /
While they emulated, give a fuck if I’m hated” – Talentless White Rapper Logic. “yea yyya yyyyyeah yahhhh yeah” – Black Talented Wordplay Lord Lil Uzi Vert
“In the glow of the moon, over the melancholy metro /
My poetry is set like a U.F.O. /
The maestro, the lyricist concerto
My physical play the role of a vessel /
The level of my lyrics law manifesto /
My thoughts wrestle and attack with the killer instincts
of a gorilla stronger than Samson /
Without vanilla my soliloquoy profess my ability to just
stimulate you like the best sensimilla /
The halflife the Illadel-L-P-O-phila proceed
hither is my death flower blow your tower to smithereens
to fiends catch another rhyme gripper /
Deeper than the meditations of a Hindu worshiper /
Unorthodox, hip-hop, minister /
Than a Serengeti cheetah my thoughts swifter
you lose your balance when the sound hits ya /
So check for the, Fifth Militia /
A poet’s under pressure stressin’ that you get the picture /
Even if it means you gotta hang over the banister /
I pull a microphone on any pistol brandisher /
And take advantage of ya because you amateur /
Styles gunning down your sound man and manager /
What? This how we do it in the year for nine-six /
With this delivering attack on pointless rap shit /
Breakin MC’s down to fractions, tell your squadron
it’s time to go to war, reaction” – Even More Talented Black Wordplay Lord Black Thought
Black is from the old generation every1 respects. But NOW that we live in mumble era i see no1 betta than kendrick,cole,logic. Logic is a beast compared to many. Fuck this race shit
** black=black thought
Aight, just wanted to be sure you weren’t generalizing every black rapper based off Uzi. But you right, race doesn’t determine talent.
Why does he look like he smokes a pack at a time?
What happened to Visionary with Jon Bellion?
Smart move, but are the artists in his roaster strong enough to carry Elysium forward?
Dude look like Napoleon Dynamite. You can quote his wack ass half raps all day dont change the fact he looks like a fuckin bus boy at Applebees
