ASHANTI INKS DEAL WITH CASH MONEY

The Young Money - Cash Money family continues to grow. After adding Limp Bizkit and Christina Milian to their program, it appears that the label is ironing out a deal to sign R&B songbird Ashanti - before the release of her new album.

Last year, the Grammy-winning singer signed a distribution deal with eOne and has since released a new single "The Woman You Love", which coincidentally features another newly-signed Cash Money artist Busta Rhymes. Details below:

Lil Wayne Via New York’s 98.7 KissFM:

"As far as Cash Money, they’re always listening and looking at acts, so honestly, it’s like every other day I hear about somebody new just signed to Cash Money. The other day I just found out Limp Bizkit signed to Cash Money.

So they’re signing everybody and everybody’s getting a chance. I don’t wanna step across any boundaries, but I think we’re working with Ashanti right now."


If true this would certainly be a good move for Miss Douglas.

The independent route definitely has its advantages mainly in the ownership aspect, but nothing can override the fact, that few independent-based artists have been able to find success that rivals that of artists with major-label deals.
