By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 5 September 2011
Hip hop duo Mobb Deep have set up their own label and signed a deal with Sony Music’s RED Distribution division. Infamous Records and RED will now coordinate the release of any future Mobb Deep projects, and any other artistic ventures Infamous gets involved in.
One half of the duo, Prodigy, told reporters: “After almost twenty years in this industry, it was inevitable for us to take matters into our own hands. We feel that RED is the perfect home for our brand. We know who our fans are and what they want from Mobb Deep. We’re excited to take a new step in our career”.
Meanwhile RED chief Bob Morelli said: “Mobb Deep is an iconic act, having been on the cutting edge of music and social commentary for years. We are happy and excited to distribute the next chapter in their musical career”.
