King Chip Booking

Hip-Hop Artist

King Chip, formerly known as Chip Tha Ripper is an artist best known for his collaborations with Kid Cudi. He is from Cleveland, Ohio and is starting to get more attention after receiving high visibility on the “Indicud” album by Kid Cudi which was his take on The Chronic by Dr. Dre. Promoters are keeping their lookout, and seeing if booking King Chip for shows is the best route to take if they are unable to afford Kid Cudi.

King Chip was getting attention back when promoters were just booking Chip Tha Ripper, and blogs were covering him off of his frequent collaborations with other artists. He is heavy influenced by both Houston and Dallas style rap, and names rappers from DSR like Big Tuck and Fat Bastard as being influences on his sound. His Slab Freestyle went viral with people making memes of the song, and making comedic videos of the song. He was gaining all this attention without ever being signed to a label. He has collaborated with everybody from The Game to Akon to Big Sean to Currensy and Travis Scott. He is definitely known in the game, which is why when he changed his name to King Chip, his booking price went up.

He has been featured throughout all of Kid Cudi’s albums, and his appearance has been well noted. He was featured on the hit song “Just What I Am”, and this playful fun song shot him further into the spotlight. Promoters are now getting their King Chip reservations set, so when he releases his album they’ll be ready to bring him out to their city.

When you are ready to book King Chip for your event, let us know and we will work to see how we can help put something together.

What do I need to have in place before I make contact with an agent for the acquisition of an artist?
With the exception of private events (corporate), you will need to have the budget already set-up for your event, venue reserved, and a date.
Where can I find artist booking prices?
Artist prices are not published. When you want to secure an artist, you have to make an offer. Even though, you do not want to be too high or too low, you need to base your offer on your budget. We have exact prices for many artists, and for other artists we use historical data along with data from their current activity (music sales, radio play, recent ticket prices, show attendance, etc). Some offers may include a flat fee which is the guarantee, in addition to a percentage of the NET profit.
How much do I have to pay the artist up front?
In order to lock in a date, you will need to make a full 50% deposit. The deposit typically goes straight to the artist management or representative, and not to us.
When do I have to pay the balance of the artist fee?
Unless you have a “Door Deal” where the artist tour manager has control over the box office, the remaining balance will be due on the day of the event when they arrive.
What other costs are involved in addition to the artists booking fee?
Other costs include travel and accommodation, which we can take care of if you purchase a travel buyout. Also, you must be able to honor their rider which varies per artist. You will be charged a 10% booking fee for each artist that you book as well.
