- [+378, -24] Honestly, other than the long hiatus of YG artists, they get top quality MV's, high-end outfits and make good money too...they're a perfect duo at YG
- [+275, -1] YG's image is a mess but they pay their artists well and treat them good too. Other than the long hiatus for comebacks, everything else is perfect. Even Kang Do won renewed with them too.
- [+169, -22] AKMU's name and music is perfect for YG and plus they've moved into a new building too. They're going to become YG's main group later on.
- [+134, -7] Them renewing their contracts without much thought like this is honestly a good thing. I don't think there's a company out there that would take care of them this well. When it comes to the welfare of its artists and profit-sharing, YG is top
- [+93, -3] Even though Yang Hyun Suk and other idols there are trash...I gotta say I'm not surprised they renewed because the company takes care of them well
- [+92, -7] People that don't care about AKMU or buy their albums are the loudest ones commenting telling them "to go to Antenna"ã…‹ã…‹. Anyone that listens to their music and knows AKMU knows this is the right choice for them to stay in YG ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹
- [+57, -3] YG invests over 100 million a year on their trainees and don't even ask them to pay it back. Yea...the company's image is s*** but you gotta admit the company itself is good. Just look at Treasure. Plus their new building is no joke..
