Title: Jay Z to form new label?

StreetHop.com has been told by a reliable source that Jay Z will leave the Roc-A-Fella family and start a new label under the Warner Brothers music division.

Apparently Jay Z and Roc-A-Fella Co-CEO Dame Dash have had a falling out, and only communicate through their lawyers.

What is even more interesting for fans is that the new deal would see Jay Z, who said he would retire after The Black Album, release at least one more album under his real name, Sean Carter.

Yea I thought I heard something about this awhile back too.  That would be crazy, and maybe a smart move for Jay.

Not quite sure if the Black Album was the best note for him to go out on anyway...

But yeah, I've read at least 3 articles where he brought up the whole "Michael Jordan" thing...

That would be some bullshit... First leave the label he helped to build from the ground up and then bust a Jordan too? Man, somebody's talkin' shit.

i dunnol, i doubt he'll do that, like pr1mo said he got rocawear and everything too and he is Roc-A-Fella much more than muhfuckin Damon Dash. But if he founds another label i'ma support that, the ROC ain't really a great label without jay puttin out shit on it anyways. But I don't want him to bust a jordan, it'd be kinda hypocritical and i think the black album was a great way to end his MC'in career

there have been rumors about beef between jay and dash for about a year, there is also a rumor that the beef is fake and just another marketing ploy

comin out as sean carter would sound gay, but if he does not come out with another album again, leavin on black album is still respectable, nothing amiazing at all, no where near classic but its a decent way of goin out
