Swizz Beatz signs to Warner/Atlantic
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 20 August 2010
Hip hop producer of the moment Swizz Beatz has signed a new deal with a company called Everest Entertainment and Warner’s Atlantic US division to release his second album, ending his relationship with Universal’s Motown.
Mr Beatz said in a statement: “I couldn’t ask to be in a better place right now. Both Everest and the Warner/Atlantic team have been great and I’m looking forward to sharing this project with true fans of good music”.
Due out this autumn with guest appearances from Jay-Z, Mary J. Blige, Coldplay, John Legend, Drake and TI, the as-yet-untitled album will be Everest’s first musical release, the company typically known for producing films.
