In the space of the music industry, artists’ affiliations with record labels can often play a significant role in shaping their careers. Various artists change their labels to expand their growth and Bad Bunny is under speculation for the same reason.
As fans and music enthusiasts continue to follow his meteoric rise and find themselves wondering, “Who is Bad Bunny signed to? Is Bad Bunny signed to any label?” Hence, we decided to reveal the story behind his record label affiliations.
On October 9, 2023, during the Clubhouse session with Wack 100, producer Birdman revealed that Bad Bunny is also associated with OVO Sound, Drake’s label. However, Bad Bunny is still working with Rimas Entertainment and never revealed anything about his association with Drake’s OVO Sound.
Who Is Bad Bunny Signed To? Bad Bunny’s Journey of Record Labels
In the ever-evolving music industry, labels and artists go side by side. If an artist can elevate their record label, then the label can shape any artist’s career. Very recently, Blackpink has fought their way with their previous company YG.
This symbiotic connection between labels and artists is a fascinating interplay of art, business, and mutual growth.
Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, began his music career in 2013. Throughout his music journey, he has been associated with a few different music labels and companies during his career. However, on record, he worked with only 2 two labels to this date, “Hear This Music,” and “Rimas Entertainment.”
In 2013, Bad Bunny started publishing his songs on SoundCloud. In 2016, his song, “Diles” caught DJ Luian’s attention. Soon enough, he signed Benito under his music label, “Hear This Music” in 2016. It was the first record label under which Bad Bunny released hit songs, including ‘Soy Peor,’ which charted at the 19th position on the Hot Latin Songs chart.
In April 2016, he further joined Assad’s “Rimas Entertainment” and signed a 360 deal. At the same time, Bunny collaborated with DJ Luian’s label while working under Rimas. In 2017, he collaborated with Karol G on her song, Ahora Me Llama, which reached 10 on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs.
Ever since, Bad Bunny has been working under these two labels. However, people are wondering if there is any other label he is working with behind the curtains. These questions began to arise after Birdman declared that Bunny was also signed to OVO Sound.
On October 9, 2023, during a Clubhouse session with Wack 100, Birdman confidently declared association between Bunny and Drake. He revealed that Bad Bunny has been working under Drake’s OVO label since his debut in the music industry. He said,
“Bad Bunny already signed to Drake, y’all just don’t know it.”
Bad Bunny and Drake came together on various projects together, including, “Mia,” which was released in 2018. However, Neither Drake nor Bad Bunny hinted at anything related to Bunny’s association with OVO Sounds. Bad Bunny is still working under Rimas Entertainment and is working on releasing his new album with the same label.
Birdman’s claims have caught a lot of attention from fans around the world, just like Bad Bunny’s relationship with Kendall Jenner. Some believe that he may be secretly working with Drake’s company, while few accused Birdman of being high on drugs to make such claims.
