MC EIHT’S WEST MUSIC SIGNS PACT WITH NATIVE RECORDS FOR DISTRIBUTION THROUGH RYKO’S PENALTY DIVISION

(Los Angeles, CA)--West Coast hiphop icon, MC Eiht has just signed a deal for his newly formed label, West, Inc., with Native Records, which is distributed through Neil Levine’s Penalty Associated Labels at Ryko Distribution. The label’s first release will be an MC Eiht solo album, which is slated for early fall. It will be produced by Tha Chill,who has also crafted tracks for Snoop Dogg, 213, the Outlaws and MC Ren.

Eiht’s upcoming disc, which he is presently recording, will be titled Veterans Day. The name stems from the fact that Eiht is one of the true O.G.’s of West Coast hiphop, having first emerged in 1989 with the debut release of Compton’s Most Wanted’s It’s A Compton Thang. During his long career, he has enjoyed great success, particularly with his singles that have appeared in movie soundtracks, including “Growin’ Up In The Hood” from John Singleton’s film classic Boyz In Tha Hood, and the critically acclaimed “Streiht Up Menace” from the Hughes Brothers’ feature film, Menace II Society.  Its soundtrack album held the Number One spot on the Billboard Top 100 R&B chart for 8 weeks straight. Eiht continues to signify an iconic status as a West Coast artist.

Native Records, which is headed by Ken Smith, has had previous releases that include The Militia All Stars’ disc, Comin’ At Cha, and The Exodus by the Gospel Gangstaz, who were nominated for a Grammy Award in 2000.

hah......I know some eiht fans are thinkin eiht shud retire rite now...

But I think he can  still make a good album IF the beats are dope all the way through (eg. Tha8z gangsta-produced by binky mack and tha chil) now with Tha Chill producing it I can only hope for a good album
