Former Cash Money Records producer Mannie Fresh has inked a deal with Def Jam that will allow him to sign and produce new artists for the label. Mannie Fresh appeared on New Orleans' Q 93 during The Wild Wayne Show and revealed that in addition to finding talent, he will produce for Southern acts on the Def Jam label. The platinum-plus producer also has the freedom to continue to produce for artists outside of the Def Jam label as well. "Dude [Jay-Z] reached out, flew me up, we talked about it," Mannie Fresh said. "It was a nice little proposal and that's where I'm at now. He gets this era of Hip-Hop." During the interview, incarcerated former Hot Boy member Turk called in and revealed he has written seven albums worth of material since being sentenced to 10 years in prison, after being convicted of weapons charges stemming from a Jan. 2004 shoot-out with Memphis, TN SWAT Team members. "I'm working on my appeal. I should be home this year," Turk said.
