About BIMMG
“The very ink with which all history is written is merely fluid prejudice,” Mark Twain
This is a quote from Mark Twain in which he takes exception with the way history has been recorded. It’s a great quote that not only highlights the effects that history has on the present and future, but also expresses the importance of one of the mediums in which history is recorded –  that medium being ink.

No matter what color, ink solidifies man’s word. It records, and changes history. It has been used to create pictures, blueprints, bibles, billboards and books. Ink is a tiny word, only three letters, but it has played such a huge role on the stage of world history. The original use for ink was to draw and paint on the walls of caves, a lasting legacy of prehistoric man. However, its greatest impact was to spread knowledge in the form of the printed word. Long before Johann Gutenberg invented the printing press in Germany in the mid-fifteenth century, ink was the medium used to preserve the archives and historic records that tell us much about our past. Ink has revolutionized our lives, and in some cases, it has even recorded lives.

Black Ink Management and Music Group exemplifies ink, as a medium, in its most formal form, not only in our name but in our mission. Our mission as a record company is to stand the test of time, spread knowledge through our presence and impact history.

Black Ink Management and Music Group LLC (BIMMG) is a brand-new independent record label based out of Newport News, Virginia, and distributed by Bungalo Records/Universal UMGD. The company was founded by Ron (Ronnie Wayne) Hatchett in 2009 with the goal of exposing great talent in all music genres. Although small, BIMMG shares the same amenities as its larger counterparts, but operates in a more modern nontraditional manner. Black Ink’s staff understands what it’s like to be an artist, and we reinforce that not only in the way we do business, but also in the way we take care of our artists. “The hunger will always be there, along with the same ‘ground up’ approach. We’re not interested in following the same methodologies that are used, not only by the Big Four, but by other so-called ‘indies’ claiming -806804487  to be different. We will keep our relationships with the consumer strong at all times, and we will remain relevant without losing integrity,” States Ronnie Wayne CEO

Over the next year, BIMMG will fully utilize its digital distribution partnership with Bungalo/Universal by releasing as many “Top” projects as possible, covering multiple genres of music. Over the next several years, the company plans to position itself as a major imprint on the east coast, with a reach that will span worldwide.
