Similar to a great pot of gumbo, Shake Em Records offers a diverse roster of artists as well as musical styles.

Current artists on the roster include: 9ine, V.I.T., Lonni Flow Crazy, Sosa Blonco, Trish Nars, Clas A Poet, Teezy Man, and producer Moo Real. Each act brings his unique flavor to the table aiding in pushing Shake Em Up Records to the forefront of the music industry.
