Terrace Martin Signs With Warner Brothers Records - March 27, 2007 By : Rud

Warner Bros. Records have just announced the signing of a new label and production deal with Terrace Martin, the Los Angeles rapper and producer who has worked with Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent and Talib Kweli amongst others.

Under the terms of the deal, Warner Bros. Records will market, promote, and distribute artists that Terrace Martin signs to his company Jakai Music Group. Martin will also produce current Warner Bros. Records artists, including the upcoming Blacksmith/WBR release from Talib Kweli, as well as put out his own music, including his debut album, which he is currently working on.

Terrace Martin is a throwback to a pure form of musician - he believes in crafting real music and conceptual songs from scratch. Tick, A&R Director for WBR explained; "When Craig Aaronson, Naim Ali and I banded together to sign Terrace Martin, we all knew we had the total package of artist, producer and entrepreneur."

Currently Martin is best known for his production work on albums by Snoop Dogg, such as Snoop's recent gold-certified, soon to be platinum album "Tha Blue Carpet Treatment," and other artists in Tha Dogg Pound.

Terrace Martin, who is also a jazz saxophonist who has played with Stevie Wonder and Herbie Hancock, describes his style as; "Sounds that would happen if [hip-hop artist/producer] Hi-Tek was to have lunch with the Beatles, then go play with Michael Jackson's monkeys, then go kick it with Miles Davis. It's fun, feel-good music!"

We will keep you updated on this new deal and the music that comes out of the Jakai Music Group over the current months. For those of you who want to know more about Terrace Martin head over to his official MySpace page.

No signed to WBR, where he has a production and now an artist deal. Snoop i believe is exec producing his planned album and he's still working with everyone he has been.
