On Saturday, January 24, Suns forward Amar’e Stoudemire held a star-studded dinner and reception in Atlanta to celebrate the merging of his record label, Hypocalypto Entertainment, with Grand Hustle Records. Hypocalypto and will be under the umbrella of Grand Hustle, a record label created and run by acclaimed rapper, T.I.

The dinner included appearances from celebrities such as basketball star Lisa Leslie, the Falcons’ Ovie Mughelli and the first artist signed to Stoudemire’s record label, Juice. The event was held at the renowned restaurant, Justin’s.

T.I has released three singles that have gone to No. 1 on the charts, including “My Love” with Justin Timberlake, “Whatever You Like,” and “Live Your Life” featuring Rihanna. The Atlanta-based rapper has already won a Grammy Award and is nominated for several more this year.

Very Interesting. I don't fully get it though. Grand Hustle is under Atlantic. I don't think Grand Hustle is a big enough label to distribute albums from under-labels (such as this Amare one). The only way I can really see this being a good move for any artist on the Amare label is if It'll be a deal like:

Hypocalypto/Grand Hustle/Atlantic

Regardless, a power move by T.I. and furthers the growth of Grand Hustle  8)
