KANYE WEST SIGNS D’BANJ AND DON JAZZY TO G.O.O.D MUSIC, RECORDS SCAPEGOAT REMIX WIT KANYE WEST

American multiple awards winning artist and producer, Kanye West has today finalized his interest to sign one of Nigeria’s biggest hip-hop artistes, Dapo Oyebanjo popularly known as D’Banj & Don Jazzy to his Good Music Entertainment, a production, management and record label outfit. “GOOD” is an acronym for “Getting Out Our Dreams”.
D’banj seems to be a big time player when it comes to pulling stunts in the music industry. First of all, it was a remix of his hit song ‘Mr Endowed’ with US rapper Snoop Dogg with an incredible video to back up it’s authenticity, which was followed by a tweet from one of the most popular rappers in recent times Kanye West saying D’Banj and Don Jazzy should come over to New York. The celebrated entertainer then appeared on the BET ‘Welcome to America’ show where he revealed his intentions to work with US acts especially Kanye.

In the early hours of Thursday, June 9, 2011 Dbanj who was nominated in the Best International Act category of the forthcoming BET Awards took to his twitter account to an

nounce that he had be signed to Kanye’s G.O.O.D Musiclabel.

Just like yesterday myself and my brother did Tongolo. 7yrs later Mo’Hits signs with Good Music. Best birthday gift ever. God thank u‘, D’banj’s tweet reads.

It has now been confirmed that the move is indeed true. But the news gets even bigger as our reporters have confirmed that G.O.O.D music has signed the entire Mo’Hits camp unto the label. The signing took place in the US on Wednesday, June 8, 2011 which happens to be Kanye’s birthda

y. Hit producer Don Jazzy and D’banj attended Mr West’s gig and even got the Chicago born rapper an expensive wristwatch.

Just a few hours ago, Don Jazzy put a picture of Jay Z, Kanye and himself on twitter and gave a vote of thanks to his wellwishers.

A remix of D’banj’s ‘Scapegoat‘ has already been recorded with Kanye west taking a verse on it.

Kanye West emerged in the music scene first as a record producer for popular acts like Jay Z before going on to release his ‘College Dropout’ LP back in 2004. The success of the album led to him to start off his own management and production company called G.O.O.D Music. Teh Grammy Award winning rapper has gone on to sign acts like John legend, rapper Common, Kid Cudi and Mos Def.

A source close to Kanye’s camp assures us the G.O.O.D MUSIC deal will see Mohits producer Don Jazzy working with G.O.O.D music talents, including Dbanj who is believed to have a one-album deal with the label.
