[khiphop-discussions]

Did Jay officially part ways with aomg or is he still an artist?

Also if code kunst left, for sure something bad is happening given that he got a lot of artists to sign (Leehi, wonjae, coogie, kian). And if im not mistaken, Kian signed a little less than a year ago? Makes me think that whatever is happening, has started very very recently (especially because Simon d terminated his contract, and not wait for it to expire). Also makes me feel like it has to do with meenoie being allowed back into the label.

Also wondering why/how hoody, Elo, and ugly duck are still in aomg. They are the OGs but imo, aomg has not done much for them.

While we’re at it, jvcki wait released like 2 songs so far. Still don’t know why she signed with Aomg. She’ll most likely leave too at this point.

He stayed as an advisor. Or at least that's the last thing I heard about his involvement with the company.

My thought was that maybe Jay Park is poaching everybody to More Vision. Maybe he regretted selling a portion of AOMG to CJ E&M and this is his way of correcting that mistake? Getting everyone to terminate or not renegotiate the contract just to hire them again for the new company. That's just me making a weird assumption. I literally have no proof of this. I guess this is what I would want to be true lol.

I originally thought it was an understandable idea for Jvcki to sign there. While she doesn't fit in, I thought she'd be well taken care of if Jay, Gray, Woo, and Coogie were there cause I think she was on pretty good terms with them before even leaving Indigo. I'm sure she and some others from AOMG were on good terms too.

IDK if it has to do with Meenoi being allowed back. I think Meenoi's situation was just an early sign that there was some discord or miscommunications starting to arise within the company.

IDK how old you are but if you've worked before then you probably already know that when you see this many people leaving a company at once, it's usually an issue with the higher ups (management and even as far up as CEO and other execs) running of the company. So that's why I'm assuming it's the new people in charge who are a big part of the problem.

While we're here, I wonder if someone who recently left AOMG will be the new artist joining H1ghr?

🔥 AOMG - REACTION 🔥

Reaction to you joking about getting married. 

-------------------------------------

GRAY 

You would automatically stop talking as the joke left your mouth as you saw the smirk crawl onto Gray’s face. He had been trying to convince you that now was the perfect time to get married and your little joke proved that his convincing was working, causing you to roll your eyes. 

JAY PARK 

He would laugh awkwardly as he was not ready to get married and the thought that you might want to get married sooner than planned would freak him out, you would have to constantly tell him it was just a joke to wipe the look of terror off his face.

WOO WONJAE 

He would simply brush the joke off, but would keep the idea in the back of his mind. He would love the idea of being married to you and you joking about it would inspire him to actually start making plans to propose, he would smile loving at you as you looked back at him confused. 

CODE KUNST 

He would be laughing with you. This man found everything hilarious, but it would kinda upset you that he found the idea of marrying you so funny, but he would notice your sad face and promise you that he was joking and he had every intention of making you a married women.

SIMON DOMINIC 

He would stare at you blankly leaving you confused, you hadn’t spoken about marriage before and the joke was sending a million ideas rushing through his head, you would constantly ask him what the matter was, but he would simply answer ‘nothing’ and pepper you with a million kisses. 

LOCO 

He wouldn’t take it as a joke, he would almost propose automatically. He wanted nothing more than to marry you, you would be telling him to stop playing around, but he would run off to your shared room to get the ring box he had been hiding to propose to you properly. 

YUGYEOM 

He would find it the funniest as you had both said time and time again that you were both too young for marriage, however, you would both spend the rest of the evening wondering what forever with each other would look like.
