The entity later became a full entertainment company encompassing record label, management services, production & film companies. Chevy Woods, Berner, and Tuki Carter all signed to the record label in 2011. In December 2012, Juicy J joined the entertainment company.In 2013, Ty Dolla $ign joined the company as well. In 2014, J.R. Donato signed to the label.King Ken & Kmatic KelZ signed to the label in early 2016.
The record label also doubles as a super group and announced plans to release an album as a group in 2016.
Taylor Gang Ent. partnered with brands to create licensing deals, most notably, Grenco Science in 2014 for a series of vaporizer products and Neff to produce a special 26-piece apparel collection composed of T-shirts, jerseys and hats, which were a creative collaboration among the label's artists and Neff.

  1. Feedback on your whole blog from Miss North
    www:Lots of research into artist

    Interesting mood board

    Detailed analysis of existing media video’s
    Theory research
    Generally appealing presentation (reading some of the director points is a little challenging.)

    EBI: A key aspect is that you MUST make sure that you VERY clearly spell out what you have learnt from any task you have completed – whether that be analysis or research – and HOW this is going to inform your own creations.
    Discuss your mood board
    How are you going to cover the difficult issue of the way drug use is glamorised?
    bell hooks – deliberately NEVER uses capital letters in her name.
    How does your audience, artist and producer research directly inform your product? – the links needs to be explicit.

    Make sure you have a production schedule.
    You also need to very carefully explain every choice you make – from the actors and their costumes to the location and shot type. Be very detailed and look at all the connotations.
    Audience research
    Use a wide range of ICT
