Why i think yg does produce the richest artists/idols

YG da best

Quote from Wizard-of-ozz

I feel like if i wanted to get rich and popular and active for a long time without hustling too much - then yg is my choice

yeah but it's a high risk high return.
remember that only a few trainees that get to debut in YG.

but compared to other big company, then yea maybe yg?

yg music artist are paid better than other companies, even if the music does not belong to the artist...

yet they have less comebacks by far not that good

YG is good with the rich image. It’s their specialty

YG idols are models and then musician's.

At least Blackpink and Somi.

YG operates more on brand image than music

rich and mysterious are usually their go-tos and those traits are popular way beyond just music

they get brand deals a lot and public likes them before they've even heard their music

you dont need to be the most skilled to be a YG idol

but you need to look and feel like an expensive product

Quote from Wizard-of-ozz

Whatever that is it works for them

But i really wanna trade one day with an yg idol

You just wanna meet Jennie

Why I don't think YG idols are the richest:

- Because they don't comeback

big bang helped establish YG as the IT company

I think that's why the company profits isn't the best too, seems like their motto is as long as people getting paid and company still standing, who cares about profits. Which is possible deduction because they keep dungeoning their biggest act

They do concerts, which is most profitable, and if yg artists get higher income ratio, they'll be richer. Especially when u hv less members too

Quote from Wizard-of-ozz

1. 90% of yg artists produce their own songs/albums or do contribute in producing songs for another yg artist. Hence, 50% of all the earned money will be given to them. Like Gdragon is the michael jackson of kpop and he owns the only bugatti (?) in korea. Bang yedam bagging the cash througz darari and winners i love you.

Akmus chanhuyk, winners mino, ikons bobby etc are a few other examples. Also blackpink members and somi (example for female artists) do participate in the producibg process

2) all the brand deals and cfs and endorsments

No one can deny that yg has the biggest connections in the fashion industry. Most of their artists have HUGE deals e.g Blackpink members endorsments, Gdragon in chanel and his own brand, Winners mino and somi in louis vuitton, and idk how many deals their ngg and their rookies treasure will get

3) YG is very generous when it comes to share the income with their artists. Like there was once a study that showed that yg literally shares 70% of touring income with their artists and 50% of album sales

I feel like if i wanted to get rich and popular and active for a long time without hustling too much - then yg is my choice

Best hourly pay.

YG may produce the richest idols on average, but *the* richest comes from JYPE:

I believe he's worth in the region of USD $270 million.
