There’s a new music mogul in town—and Bossie B Entertainment isn’t deterred by larger labels.
Founded by Talibah B., the Atlanta-based entertainment company started as an artist development firm before evolving into a full-fledged record label. But make no mistake: this is not your typical label.
“Really, it’s about the artists being able to keep their creative control,” Talibah B. said in a statement.
“Not only that, but educating them on what major labels don’t—how to do their split sheets, how to collect their money. You’d be surprised how many artists, even major ones, don’t know how to get their royalties.”
Talibah B. is deadset on making sure independent artists don’t get swindle.
She does this by ensuring that every artist under Bossie B Entertainment understands the paperwork and business intricacies that often go ignored—keeping her clients up-to-speed.
“We want them to understand that being developed doesn’t just mean stage presence—it’s everything,” she said. “It’s understanding the industry, structuring yourself properly, and knowing the value of your work before just putting yourself out there.”
Bossie B Entertainment is no little fish, with Virgin Music Group and Empire, she’s ensuring her artists have the same global reach as major-label acts—without sacrificing their creative freedom.
Bossie B Entertainment has also danced in the global arena, adding Africa to the mix.
“People don’t realize how powerful the overseas market is. Many artists blow up internationally before they even get noticed in the U.S.,” she said. “We’re giving artists that opportunity to become global names—not just local sensations.”
This international reach has already sprouted opportunities for budding artists.
The essence of Bossie B Entertainment’s mission is freedom—both creatively and when it comes to getting paid.
“There’s an education piece missing in the music industry,” she says. “We tell artists: keep your creative control, understand the business, and don’t be a slave to your own talent. The industry has a long history of controlling and manipulating artists. We’re here to ruffle some feathers and rewrite the rules.”
