Atlantic is NOT a crappy label. LOL@the alternative choices people were throwing out instead. RCA, Universal, Sony, please. No established act wants to sign with an overpopulated label where they're just a number waiting to be called, and chances are won't get the attention of their dominate acts of the moment. At Atlantic, she can be a priority and will probably be allowed more freedom to do things her own way. Plus Blackground was a Universal imprint. I'm sure she wasn't interested in staying under that whole corporate umbrella. She made a wise choice.
