Why do people call YG "Papa YG"?

Well, a LONG LONG LONG time ago, back when YG only have BB, 2NE1, Se7en, PSY, Epik High,... YG - the company is famous for treating their artists well (especially during the time DBSK sued SM). And he was pushing the whole YG family thing. That's the reason. Nowadays, a lot of people don't call him Papa anymore

Hardcore YG stans used to call him that a lot a few years back including those that deny it now and say that only trolls say that imstupid.png and they did it as a sign of affection and admiration of YG.

 

 

But that was in the time of Big Bang and 2NE1 at their peak years and as a result the peak of YG's rep, when Lee Hi, Winner and IKON were still new or upcoming and when YG's habit of broken promises and mediaplay and bad planning/time management wasn't as obvious yet (at least not to the large mass of naive fans who swallowed everything YG said and did back then).

 

 

Nowadays you won't hear it being said as much anymore by YG stans - maybe also because the ones that said it grew up and now feel embarassed they ever said things like 'papa YG' hurrplz.png

Yep, it was said the most back then, a couple of years back. YG was kinda pushing that sorta mediaplay and embracing things like 'papa YG' and (a number of) YG stans swallowed it and supported spreading stuff like that.
