Cocaine City
In 2002 at the age of 18, French Montana created the “Cocaine City” DVD imprint as a means to showcase his talent as an underground artist and a new voice from the New York streets. To gain a broader fan base, French incorporated interviews with major artists, as well as some up and comers. What started out as simply a medium for developing an audience quickly grew into one of the top selling “street DVD’s”, having sold nearly a million copies to date with national and international distribution.

Konvict Muzik
In 2009 French signed a 50/50 deal to Akon's Konvict Muzik.
