The Script are fine. They're RCA UK. Epic is just the US distributor. Ciara will be dropped, Tamar will be saved, but Avril is in a grey area. She should probably go back to BMG. Their masters model should appeal to her. As for Cher, her UK career is gone. She hasn't produced a hit there since 2011. She's gonna have an Alexandra Burke-style fall.

she hasn't had a hit there since 2011 because she hasn't released anything there since 2011, she will do better without epic tbh
It will end up being good for: Bonnie (will be signed to RCA), Future (will be signed to Young Money), Avril Lavigne (will be signed to RCA), Ciara (will be signed to Young Money as a featured artist), Sara Barellis (will be signed to interscope), Tamar Braxton (will be signed to interscope).
No idea: The Frey, The Script, Yo Gotti
Everyone else:

Yo Gotti was a a pretty solid indie rapper, he'll just go back to being independent.
Sounds like rumor. Heard this earlier in the year. Some of the artist on the label are doing well. Don't need block busters to make money and stay in business. A lot of the artist listed are solid and have been around a long time. Andre300 and Outkast just announced a come back recording.

Major label artists generally need to sell about 500,000 breakeven in most cases. None of these artists except Sade (and Michael back in 2010 but then again they also have catalog sales from him as well as Sade and other artists) so.....
