Wow, these days it just feel likes behind the scenes Hov' ain't missing a beat. Even while finishing up his tour with the Wifey he is still managing to make power moves. The latest news for the Roc Nation CEO is that he has officially signed G.O.O.D music artist Big Sean to the Roc for management. For Sean, this may have been one of the hardest and greatest decisions of his career. It's totally obvious that Sean models himself after Kanye West. You know, "keeping it true", "having fashion sense", and even capitalizing on shoe deals with Adidas. But leaving G.O.O.D for management had to be a monumental decision in his career.
But let's weight this decision out. In regards to his personal career, this was a great decision. It was clear that although Sean had a lane, he could not separate himself from the shadow in which he stood behind (being that of Kanye) in the way Drake has done in regards to his situation of coming up behind Lil Wayne. This departure breathes new life into Sean's career and places the playing field on level grounds in retrospect, because he is no longer competing from behind Kanye anymore. He can now come out and show how much he is really coming for the throne.
Also leaving G.O.O.D Music's management will allow him to escape the pressure there is to be a G.O.O.D Music artist with your CEO making it difficult to do business with "Corporate America". Not saying that this is Sean's flavor, but when you stand behind someone that claims to be getting crucified, a few nails are "bound 2" come your way as well, eventually. However, now Sean can just focus on the music and prove why Kanye said he signed Sean because he would be the greatest rapper of all time.
