Jay-Z is taking his Roc Nation label to Universal.

 

Universal Music Group announced today that they have entered into a multi-year agreement with Jay's company. Jay has reportedly been shopping for a deal the past several months. UMG beat out Sony Music Entertainment and Warner Music Group to secure the deal.

 

As part of the agreement, forthcoming albums from Jay, Rihanna, J. Cole and other artists under the imprint will be released through UMG worldwide, according to a press release

Lucian Grainge, Chairman and CEO of UMG, stated, "In just five years, Roc Nation has established itself as one of the most successful brands in music with a reputation for developing some of today¹s most influential and popular talent. Not only does this agreement provide a dynamic platform for Roc Nation's exciting emerging artists, it extends our relationship with the extraordinary Rihanna and represents a homecoming for JAY Z-a brilliant artist and entrepreneur, who has been a creative cornerstone of our company. All of us at UMG are thrilled that JAY and Roc Nation chose UMG as their partners, knowing we will support their artists with a level of resources, expertise and passion that is simply unmatched in the industry."

In 1999, Jay left Def Jam/Universal. This new agreement brings the platinum selling rapper full circle.

 

"We are looking forward to working with Lucian and the incredible team he's assembled at Universal. We would like to applaud Lucian for collaborating with us to strike a new age deal. This agreement presents a unique opportunity for Roc Nation's artists-being able to continue to operate as an independent label with the strength, power and reach of the best major. I look forward to a long and prosperous collaboration with UMG. It feels good to be home," Jay said in a statement.

Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Ray called the station to defend himself.

 

"It's a song. It's not about that, it's a concept. People going way too deep," Ray said. "They just gotta keep it on the surface. I'm not trying to create no war. It's all love."

Video After The Jump

 

STAR goes in on Jada Pinkett Smith, calls Pilar Sanders a 42 year old groupie, tells Victor Ortiz to stop crying for a Mayweather re-match, says he has no respect for the NY Knicks and says most males prefer sloppy p*ssy.

Radio legend Troi Torain (STAR) always delivers hard-hitting objective truth. As a culture critic he is vicious, as a businessman he is relentless, as a luminary he is un-matched.

Considered radio pioneers by many, Star & Buc Wild have set precedents on the urban landscape and were recently inducted into News One's "Top 20 Black Radio Jockeys Of All Time."

Star & Buc Wild made the national stage on MTV (1999) but it was their radio show on New York's Hot 97 (2000 - 2003) that secured their place in Hip-Hop history.

Star & Buc Wild's resume includes The Source magazine, MTV Networks, Hot 97, Power 104.1, Power 105.1, Pulse 87, Hip-Hop Weekly magazine, Vladtv, Thisis50, 100.3 The Beat and shot97.com and VH1 (Reality Television).

This clip is from their LIVE show (12noon -- 2pm) on http://shot97.com.

Not satisfied with continuing to cash in on his infamous 2007 sex tape with Kim Kardashian, her ex-boyfriend Ray J is set to release a new single about his former flame titled "I Hit It First."

 

12350011474?profile=original

 

The singer released the single cover Friday, which is a pixelated image of a 2008 photo of Kim in a bathing suit.

 

TMZ obtained lyrics from the song. In it he clearly takes shots at Kim and her new boyfriend Kanye West.

 

She might move on to rappers and ballplayers
But we all know I hit it first.

 

I had her head going North and her ass going South
But now baby chose to go West

 

No matter where she goes or who she knows
She still belongs in my bed.

The Nic Nac-produced single is scheduled to be released on Tuesday. Ray is also reportedly shooting a music video for the song featuring a Kim K look-a-like.
