Dave East is a New York rapper who recently had to make a similar decision. He decided to sign with Def Jam. Chance the Rapper is an independent artist who must make a decision similar to Young M.A’s. His recent mixtape, Coloring Book may win a Grammy despite the fact that he’s not signed with a major label.
