An official press release claimed 43B will be “a multi-tiered label offering distribution and marketing services for artists and producers who are shifting music and culture, providing the resources, guidance, and infrastructure they need to thrive in today's music industry.” 

The label will be helmed by Chief Keef's long time manager, Idris Dykes who will be acting as co-CEO, as well as Sophie Kautz who has been appointed as the head of A&R and marketing.
