Reason has by no means been afraid to share his not-so-positive opinions about TDE or his label’s president, however he most likely by no means thought he’d be flying solo at his album launch social gathering.
On Friday (August 18), the rapper sat down for a chat on the Rory & Mal podcast, throughout which he revealed that allegedly nobody from TDE confirmed as much as the discharge social gathering for his newest album, Porches.
“That’s what I thought was going to be the weirdest part,” he stated, when Rory requested what he thought can be occurring at his album launch social gathering. “But it ended up not being as bad. I had a release party, and nobody showed up from the label, so…”
When the hosts requested, once more, if Reason was being critical, he re-emphasized the purpose. “Ray Vaughn showed up — shout out to Ray Vaughn,” he stated. “I took it as, you know, maybe n-ggas giving me some space.”

With TDE DJ MackWop subsequent to him, Reason accused the powerhouse West Coast label of failing to execute numerous plans that might drum up pleasure for its launch and fumbling big-name options from Latto and EST Gee.
“We had certain features lined up that could’ve gone through,” he vented. “We had the budget, we had the feature lined up, takes too long to get pushed through, the feature price ended up going up or something goes away. Content ideas lined up, not executed. Rollout ideas lined up, not executed.
“It was a few different things. I had Latto lined up for something, not executed. I had EST Gee lined up, not executed. Like, us not pushing through. Features lined up, we got a price set, video, and verse for the love, takes too long.”
He added: “I’ll speak on the EST Gee shit specifically — took too long to get through to EST Gee and his people and be like, ‘Yo, this is what we wanna do.’ By the time we ended up connecting with him and reaching out, he dropped a record with Future and the record went crazy. Now, the feature is $25,000 more than what it already was.”
