Teddy's new label was actually recommended by Papa YG himself, who thought it would be good idea for the producer to mold some of the new talent. He said, "These days, there are many people who come to YG to do music. But there is a limit to how many artists the label can house, and even if I had ten additional bodies, I wouldn't be able to take care of all of [the artists]. That's why I requested for Teddy to establish a new label with the expectation that the results will be stellar. In YG, Teddy is a producer with the best taste and a producer who makes excellent music."
Yang Hyun Suk made it no secret that he has great faith in Teddy, explaining that Teddy is a friend he would like to keep by his side for even 20 more years. The YG founder told Osen, "Teddy is younger than I am but he is my colleague and friend whom I talk with the most within the company. If I were to retire later, Teddy will be the successor who will lead YG's musical sector. As we searched for a way to make work more fun and enjoyable, we decided to set up a new label. The synergy will be even greater if Teddy concurrently works under YG as a producer and runs his own label."
Yang Hyun Suk continued, "Teddy is a long-time buddy whom I have watched since his trainee days. I will do whatever I can for him," revealing his resolve to assist Teddy and Kush set up the new label in any way possible.
When the reporter commented, "Teddy is a very lucky man," Papa YG said, "I'm lucky to have a friend like him."
