Founded in 2005 by Julien ‘Kicket’ Tribet, 187 Prod quickly established itself as the flagship record label for French G-funk and gangsta rap, gathering a message board community of hundreds of active members, releasing dozens of albums, and selling thousands of CDs worldwide—with its strongest following in Japan, where Kicket built a tight-knit network of local distributors.
