Sony
Urban Music along with Big Ego entertainment signs the newest
star from the west coast G. Malone. Former Aftermath Music A&R
Exec Mike Lynn has found another west coast star in G. Malone.
Mike Lynn who has his own label imprint through Sony Music just
inked Watts native G. Malone to a 1.7 million dollar label deal.
Sony
and Mike Lynn were so impressed with the grimy Watts rapper that
they not only signed him as an artist but gave him his own label
imprint Blu Division. G. Malone’s debut album “The
Beach Cruiser” will be a Blu Division/ Big Ego Entertainment/Sony
Music distribution.
Mike
Lynn who was the one who brought multi platinum rapper “The
Game” to Dr. Dre’s Aftermath Imprint saw the vision
and the movement G. Malone has going on, was so eager to sign
the Watts native that he was willing to pony 1.7 million dollars
for the deal and give G. Malone his own label imprint. G. Malone
who has been bubbling on the underground nationally had label
offers from Def Jam and the Game’s own Blackwallstreet,
but decided Mike Lynn and Sony saw his vision clearly for his
Blu Division Movement and how he plans to shakeup the rap game.
G. Malone who is a Blackwallstreet affiliate is still managed
by G- Ride and Big Fase 100 of the Blackwallstreet in conjuction
w/ Firing Squad Ent. which is run by his brother Pooh. G. Malone’s
debut album “The Beach Cruiser” will be dropping in
the 2nd quarter of 2006.
He
willing is dropping the follow up to his smash mixtape “White
Lightning Strikes” before the year is out. The Blu Division
Movement is in full swing stay tuned.
