What types of things makes a crew different from others? Why do some label formulate their artists into crews? (Cash Money, Young Money, Maybach Music, Baby Boy Records)\xa0 What would make a label want to sign an entire crew instead of one artist? How can crews continue to stick together and work without splitting up? Who has the best crew of artist out right now? Does the label have any control over a hip hop crew?
