MVB Entertainment
Music Group (MVBEMG) is an independent record label, and also an artist development / management company, that was formed in 2011, by its parent company, MVB Entertainment LLC.
The label is the music division of MVB Entertainment. MVB Entertainment is a privately held entertainment company, formed in 2005.
MVBEMG is the home to one of New York City's most popular up-and-coming female Hip Hop artist, La ' Vega. The label also gained notoriety in 2014, by signing New York City's first openly Gay Hip Hop / Pop artist, Deno Corneliani.
The owner of MVBEMG and CEO of MVB Entertainment, Abdel 'Sosa' Russell, says his company will still conduct photo shoots, studio sessions, and shoot music videos in the five boroughs of New York City, but their home base of operations will be in Rockland County.
When asked why they didn't stay in Manhattan, Sosa said, "Been there, done that. Rockland County is minutes away from the city, plus we would be the first real functional multi-fascited entertainment company, in the area."
The label made a name for itself in New York City's indie scene, by focusing heavily on artist development; something long gone and all but forgotten, even at the major record label level.
Artist development has become a thing of the past with record labels, because of the financial demand it places on the label. Within MVBEMG's artist development program, is a budget for music videos, photo shoots, studio time, makeup, hair, transportation, acting & singing lessons, gym, media training, choreography, and much more.
It's easy to see why MVBEMG quickly gained popularity with artists and the industry. The hefty investment it places in its talent is very rare in the music industry, and a first in the indie music scene.
MVBEMG was also the first music company in New York state, to offer health insurance through its parent company MVB Entertainment, to musicians. The label will be looking to hire bloggers, social media professionals, graphic artists, receptionists, booking agents, and more.
MVB Entertainment is getting ready to celebrate its ten-year anniversary in May of 2015.
