J.Cole Launches New Label (Dreamville) in Partnership with Interscope Records

This is good news for J.Cole fans out there; your boy is going places. He celebrated his 29th birthday yesterday, dropped his new mixtape (Revenge of the Dreamers), and also signed a deal with Interscope Records for his new label- Dreamville Records. What a great way to start the year...making the path of being a boss too. He is still under Roc Nation, but this deal will give him some leverage in making future moves.  Sort of like how Rick Ross is still signed under Def Jam, but he has his own label, MMG, with Wale, Meek Mill, and Stailey on it. 

Dreamville, one of hip-hop's most innovative and creative collectives and the force behind the phenomenal success of rapper J. Cole, whose first two albums hit #1 across the charts, has formed an exclusive label with Interscope Records. Dreamville also announced today that its first artist signing will be Bas, who has been supporting Cole on tour. "Dreamville celebrates the sort of grass roots, out-of-the-box approach to connecting artists to their fans that can help move the music industry into the future. We are very pleased to welcome Dreamville into the Interscope family," says Joie Manda, President, Urban Music, Interscope Records. (Press Release)
