− | The first album bearing the imprint '''NPG Records''', [[The NPG]]’s [[Album: Gold_Nigga|Gold Nigga]] was released after [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warner_Bros._Records Warner Bros.] alleged refusal to release that album through [[Paisley Park Records]] (a joint venture between [[Prince]] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warner_Bros._Records Warner Bros.]).
