DMX signs to Bodog (who)

[KURUPTION-81]

Multi-platinum Hip-Hop star DMX has signed a worldwide recording deal with Bodog Music and is planning to release a new album titled Walk With Me Now and You’ll Fly With Me Later.

 

The new album from the Yonkers bred rapper will feature production by longtime producer Swizz Beatz as well as guest appearances from members on the Ruff Ryders roster.

 

"I'm thankful for the fact that Bodog believes in me, that we share the same vision and the fact that they see in me the same thing I see,” DMX said in a statement. “I'll show you [Bodog Music] how it's supposed to be done, and we'll get to where we're supposed to be. You got a dog for life."

 

Bodog Music is a division of Bodog Entertainment, which producers the mixed-martial arts TV show Bodog Fight, as well as the worldwide Bodog Battle of the Bands competition, which awards the winning unsigned band with a $1 million dollar recording deal.

 

Other artists on the Bodog label include the Wu-Tang Clan, Warren G., My American Heart, Bif Naked, Neurosonic and others. "Bodog Music is rapidly becoming a big dog in the music biz,” said Bodog founder Calvin Ayre.

 

“Between the successes of Bodog Battle, great artist developments and now some major signings, look for Bodog Music to be an even larger presence on the music scene in 2008."

DMX had cash-flow problems and probably got a nice amount of money outta this deal! I don't see any other reason for DMX to sign with Bodog cause it's a pretty bad move!

Bodog trying to bolster up their Hip-Hop catalog. First the Wu, now DMX.

But I don't he committed career suicide with this - to be honest, dude fucked up royally back when he picked up the glass pipe. Don't matter what label you're signed to, that crack fucks you up. Cocaine's a helluva drug.

True on both fronts... and if the records are halfway decent, Bodog might be a name among hip hop record labels
