Pharoah Monch to sign with Shady / Aftermath!!

[Don Rizzle]

HAS PHAROAHE MONCH SIGNED TO SHADY/ AFTERMATH?
Last month Rawkus Records was finally put out to pasture, leaving a number of artists high and dry. Included on this list was Pharoahe Monch, who was expected to return with a new album after he'd released his single 'Agent Orange' back in… Speculation was rife that Pharoahe would find his contract being taken by Geffen Records, but now it seems there were a number of parties interested in gaining the MC's signature. Sources close to the long respected lyricist exclusively told The State that he's been in talks with a number of labels. Most notably Roc-A-Fella and Shady/ Aftermath. It was alleged that Eminem and Dr Dre were so keen to sign the MC, they flew to New York to do the meeting face to face. On seeing their commitment Pharoahe is alleged to have signed to the hit-making duo's imprint. According to the source Em will be making an announcement at sometime in the near future about the signing, but there's been no word from the rapper or Interscope at press time. As ever The State will keep you posted!

this sounds good if it pans out as long as there isn't too much dre production

Would definitely be of the hook, but I doubt that he'd release soon if this is true, because he's not that famous, and albums of Eminem, Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, Ice Cube, Busta Rhymes, etc. would definitely come first.

It would be better to sign with Roc-A-Fella in my opinion, I think that would be real tight - Pharoahe on Kanye productions And on Roc-A-Fella he'd release sooner than on the 'Math.

No way do I want to see him on Aftermath, they're just as bad as Rawkus for not releasing albums. Roc-A-Fella could be good, at least they release albums.

pharoahe monch with khalil and hi-tek would be even better. but youre right, roc-a-fella, for the most part, gets their albums on schedule (except when fags like memphis bleek are complaining to push back other peoples albums)

[Code Blue]

Seems like Aftermath is trying to create a monopoly. Let's just hope we see these albums actually on shelves.

[T-Dogg]

Am I the only one who feels that Aftermath's roster is getting a bit big?

nope, especially the way they take so long on each album..it would be years between each album
