| RMD Entertainment Group Secures Deal With Roc Monee RMD Entertainment Group announced today that their entertainment division has taken a huge step forward by signing one of the most sought-after artists in the hip-hop community. East Coast phenom Roc Monee was officially inked to a three-album deal that will allow both he and RMD Entertainment to rise to the top of the hip-hop community. RMD Entertainment is quickly establishing an infrastructure destined for success in the hip-hop realm by developing a solid stable of up-and-coming artists like Roc Monee, while also bringing established hip-hop veteran projects to the marketplace like the highly anticipated Heavy D album (expected early 2006 release). Standing 6'3'' and weighing in at 285 pounds, Roc Monee is as imposing as he is focused. Working diligently on his current album (expected early 2006 release) with production pioneer Mike Hype (Will Smith, Peedi Crack of Roc-A-Fella Records, G-Unit, Gloria Valez), this project has the hip-hop community taking notice. Insiders are saying that Roc Monee has such a strong and streetwise following that his army of loyal fans will be a natural fit for RMD's "where hip-hop meets Wall Street" vision. In fact, part of Roc Monee's deal includes a stock position for the artist, thereby giving him an opportunity to be part of the company fabric. RMD's President and CEO Giorgio Costonis had this to say, "My goal is to increase the wealth of my artists through their record sales and the resulting success of our company. This philosophy applies to the fans of our artists as well -- we would like to empower them by offering an easy opportunity to become stockholders and actually own a piece of the artists they support. The idea is that instead of parting with your money when you make a purchase, we would like to offer you an opportunity to become part of the company and actually see a return on your investment over time." write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Jazz News :: home page |
