In a series of tweets, Big Sean writes,

“By the way this the first project where I’m on my own label as well, no more lil dawg s***!!!! I bossed up! #DONLIFE“

After a fan reacted to the news, Big Sean replied,

“That’s a forever brotherhood, but business-wise, I had to start getting a bigger cut! I worked my way out that deal.”

“I also really miss the brotherhood I use to have with GOOD music, I don’t know what happened. Guess those the GOOD ol days. It’s all love, but we use to really be clique’d up.”

Big Sean joined Kanye West’s label in 2007 after rapping for him at a Detroit radio station. During his 14 year stint with G.O.O.D Music, Big Sean released several mixtapes and five solo albums including ‘TWENTY88′ with Jhené Aiko, ‘I Decided,’ and ‘Dark Sky Paradise,’ which produced hits like ‘I Don’t F*** With You‘ and ‘Play No Games.’
