Every song on this roster was written by Charles Mckoy and is owned outright by the house — no split masters, no outside publishers, no clearance headaches.
R&B and neo-soul with a preacher's patience and a poet's pen. Mara carries the label's heart: the album Reciprocity, the breakout singles "Nothing On Me" and "Yeah Yeah," the Big OG duet "All I Need," and "Give Yourself Grace" — a six-minute letter to her younger self. Three more singles land this fall, and a five-song EP follows in 2027.
Hip-hop straight out of Raleigh — heavy talk, muddy money, no shortcuts. "Talk Heavy" and "Muddy Money" are working their way through college, community and independent radio right now.

North Carolina’s own. Eleven releases deep on APH — "When He Lick It," "You Loss Sis," "Getting Paid," "Sassy Baby Daddy" — Rema says exactly what she means, and she doesn’t blink.
