Host of BBC Radio 1Xtra's 'Rap Show' Tiffany Calver has announced she is launching a new label in partnership with Universal Music's Polydor Records. And there are artists already on the roster in the form of Bandokay and M’Way.
The label is called No Requests, and Calver says of the venture: “It’s about supporting what I believe in, the people I’m a fan of. I’m more of a specialist, I’m not a party DJ. I’m picky, I’m selective, I’m credible".
On the Polydor partnership, she adds: “It’s a real privilege to take a leap into this new chapter by partnering with a force like Polydor - a label that has a proven track record for developing successful artists and careers, and that understands the power of combining their years of expertise with fresh ears".
Meanwhile, Polydor’s co-President Ben Mortimer says: “In recent years, Tiffany has established herself as one of the UK’s most important tastemakers. She already has a great track record in identifying exciting talent, and a unique approach in how to support them. We feel very lucky that she has decided to partner with Polydor for No Requests".
