I didn't expect this, but I'm in!
Legendary UFC fighter Conor McGregor has reportedly signed iconic hip hop group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony to his new label, Greenback Records. (RELATED: Athletics unable to secure investor for Las Vegas stadium, Oakland-area group rumored to be under gag order: Report)
“I didn't know Conor McGregor had a record label.”
Yeah, I didn't know either, but in my defense, he hadn't even announced the label until just a few days ago.
Greenback Records is here! We are putting together a team of artists who will enjoy the best conditions in the music industry. And that's it! I don't hold my hands in any business and this business is no exception!

Literally the next day, he announced that he had signed with Bone Thugs-N-Harmony.
The era of notorious violent criminals had begun.

What a powerful way to launch a record label, signing a legendary hip hop group the day after announcing it. Kudos to Connor for turning up the heat.
Funny thing is, when I saw this news, the first thing that came to mind was Bone Thugs. song “Thuggish Ruggish Bone” is now in the video game “True Crime: Streets of LA” and while I know this is a bit sudden, I can't help but remember how amazing this play was.

Connor, play up the nostalgia factor. Easy money.
