After Mack 10 signed with Cash Money Records a decade ago, Hoo Banginﾒ releases slowed, and the initial roster vacated the imprint. But the West Coast veteran is in the process of totally revamping his 14 year-old label with a new distribution deal, and a roster that includes Mitchy Slick, The LBC Crew, Glasses Malone, Richie Rich, and Xzibit.
Mack has signed a new distribution with Fontana, and revealed that he has a new lineup of respected emcees, most notably Xzibit. He will be joined by his former Strong Arm Steady band-mate Mitchy Slick, Oaklandﾒs Richie Rich, Glasses Malone and former Snoop Dogg group, The LBC Crew ﾖ with includes original Hoo Banginﾒ emcee Techniec.
The first release for the revamped Hoo Banginﾒ is Mack 10 and Glasses Maloneﾒs collaborative release, “Mack & Malone”, due April 12. The long-delayed release will be Glassesﾒ first retail album, while his Universal/Cash Money solo debut, “The Beach Cruiser” remains without a planned release date.
In a statement, Mack 10 said the following: ﾓThe Mack/Malone project is the perfect way to let folks know that Hoo Bangin’ is coming back strong. We have been working really hard to make this release a memorable project for our fans. I want Hoo Bangin’ to become the home of the best on the West.ﾔ
