CEO Teddy is trying to turn blacklabel into an entertainment company

Tbh I don’t really like him

Teddy is too stuck up to let BlackPink make their own music and release music

can we just get music & no long hiatuses from him

Impossible unfortunately

Impossible unfortunately

in another universe maybe but here *sigh* never

Teddy isnt the CEO anymore

This was always the plan. YG created THEBLACKLABEL so it'll be as successful as YGPlus, which has its own actors and models and is also publicly-traded. Except YGPlus is the biggest digital and physical album distributor in Kpop and they have a big investment arm.

THEBLACKLABEL will look a lot like YGKPlus--->

YGKplus

YGPlus

Some might remember HIGHGRND when YG created it for Tablo to run. But Tablo didn't know what he was doing.

Here's some good info here. I think Teddy, YGE, Yang Hynsuk and Naver will be the biggest stakeholders when TBL goes public. Besides YG and Naver having a lot of joint ventures and a deep and long relationship, of course Loren is in TBL so Naver is a given.

Here you can read about my post last month when THEBLACKLABEL brought on the new CEO.

And some good info about what's to come.

So sick of his songs

so you're saying that TBL will swallow up YG and be part of the new big3?

With a little cosmic genie help..more like impossible is nothing.

Quote from Panpriyah-lice

Why? 'Cause he's blinded by money and fame

or his musical taste becomes tasteless?

Both lol. I think that bp is restricted to his sound over time and wasn’t given chance to innovate. He did helped with their initial hits but like other groups they switch up and innovate their producers. I don’t get to see rose writing or getting involved with most of the bp album when she has the most potential. I think the dungeon is also created by teddy imo.

Quote from Daisy_Queen

Wasn't that obvious when he started his own sublabel

Teddy might have simply wanted a boutique label to have more creative freedom.

With his recent moves signing Taeyang and especially Park Bogum, it has become clear that Teddy wants TheBlackLabel to grow into a major entertainment agency.

Not going to happen.

Maybe years from now if Baby Monster becomes an NMixx and TBLGG is another Blackpink, Teddy might get enough influence to overtake YG or become head of both companies at the request of shareholders. I don't see that happening, though.

Baby Monster will probably do well enough to keep YG as the boss. YG is staking his name on the group, so he is clearly confident in them.

It's still a Talent Agency, which manages Talents so are interested in whom they sign as they just need a management team to get them work.

An Entertainment Company writes and produces content for their Talents which the Big 3 have done, they have produced Drama and Variety Shows.

It's funny that Bogum originally auditioned for YG as a singer, now years later he signs with an YG affiliate. The rumors about him wanting to invest in singing seems true.

That reminds about Ella Gross which signed with TBL years ago, I wonder if she is gonna be in the TBLGG.

Wasn't there news about Zion.T leaving TBL some time ago, what happened to that? He still seems to be with them.

They haven't even set up a proper website, I was looking for an artist page in theblacklabel.com but the site is just a black background with their logo.
