Maybach Music Group Bidding War?

Apparently, all the powermove business talk Rozay teased me with in Miami rings true. Besides the impending signings of Wale (I heard the deal went through yesterday, but now I can’t get anyone to confirm) and Meek Mill to his imprint, he’s being courted by the music industry’s bosses for MMG. Inside sources have told me the players include: Jay-Z’s Roc Nation/Sony; Birdman’s CMB; Lyor Cohen and the good folks at Warner; and Diddy and Iovine at Interscope. Wait, no Def Jam? The tone arm’s gonna let their heavyweight plant is flag somewhere else without a fight? Hmm. I’d advise against that Antonio. Ha!

Question: Where’d y’all think Rozay and his crew should take their talents to?

    either interscope or roc nation…still cant beleave wale signed with mmg though

  2. Yessir says:

    Warner. If he signs with Roc, DIDDY or cash money he won’t be a big dog. Warner let’s him still be the bawse, at least in the publics eye.

  3. Lorin says:

    I do NOT like that fat muthafucka. But Wale with the J’s over at Roc Nation would be epic.

  4. WURD says:

    Wale with Ross not a good fit…I dunno 😐

  5. N0t fuCk!ng @rounD says:

    Take there talents to a coffin they all suck fucking ballz ‘cept for wale and he dont even fit with these rappers he a nerd rapper and he still sounds annoying as fuck, bidding war my ass!

  6. Nobody Famous says:

    he will prbly go to diddy cuz he and diddy are mad close so might be to interscope

  7. MinajBangher! says:

  8. WiscoFinest says:

    Hope them snitchin geeked out emo fake thugs take their weak ass lines over there with Diddy and keep BIG rolling in his fucking grave watching this fat bastard cop try to steal his shine with the guy who jacked all his success

  9. seriously says:

    if diddy is involved its a horrible idea. jay electronica was smart enough to see that. hopefully ross will as well.

    Bro you must not have been listening the music they have been making together. Who would have ever saw Ross making these kinda power moves when port of Miami dropped and I’m one of Rozays biggest fans since day one. He will be a great executive on the music side because of his ear for music the business side is tbd but he’s off to a great start!!!

  11. YOUAJOKE says:

    FUCK THAT FAGGOT GROUP…THEY LIKE THE BLACK NSYNC

  12. mac DIESEL says:

    I THINK THEY GONNA GO TO ROC NATION!!!! ROSS WAS SIGNED BY JAY AND ALREADY HAVE A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP!!!! AND I THINK THAT WACK NIGGA WALE IS MANAGED BY ROC NATION!!!! HIS DADDY YN CORNBREAD SHOULD KNOW!!!!

    DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!

  13. Yung Silv says:

    INTERSCOPE no question about it the only thing is Wale wasnt happy there but there the best label for good artists

  14. chilleymost says:

    FUCK IF HE A BOSS,,,WHY SIGN TO ANYONE,,,,,GET DISTRIBUTION,,,,,AND GO DOLO,,,,,,I HOPE HE PUTS A MILLION BEHIND HIS ARTIST,,,THOUGH,,,,,,LIKE HE DID IN THE CLUB,,,,,BOSS UP,,,,,

  15. dutchmaster says:

    who cares, none of these dudes will be a boss or make major moves in 2k11……trick ross is the only one with “weight”

  16. gerold says:

    Good for him he deserves it dude overcame tons of obstacles to get where he is word to the C.O.’s that he use to work with

  17. flawda says:

    lol at every major player. Nigguh please, Ross can barely go gold himself, what makes him think he can break artist. Wale is the only nigga i fuck with.

  18. jus10gotti says:

  23. Delan Stone says:

    It’s extremely hard to say who they should sign with, without knowing what the contracts look like.

  24. assasin9 says:

    bidding war ? it’s the same 4-6 labels everytime lol — looks like he is off of Def Jam though ? interesting move – Boss doing big things, and got Wale spitting like an animal now

  27. Hip Hop Head says:

    I love their legacy but I cant be the only one that thinks DEF JAM is a ugly ass name!?!?!?!?!?!?!

    Anyway I believe Officer Ross will probably go to Atlantic cus he considers himslef a Boss & I know he wants to be where he can be considered a boss. Since TIP is locked up Atlantic needs that look & will probably give Ross the best deal based on that.

    MMG/Atlantic

  28. Jin says:

    smh……. R.I.P. CTE

  29. odC says:

    Is this joke? Ok, not hate. Move is move but where are these artist gonna sell record, nor what has Ross proved to be in a bid war? a gold album? lol.
    Anyway, i don’t see much of it other than what he been doing.

  30. Black Shady says:

    they will flop anyway!! Their boss (Ross) never went plat. how the fuck they gon sell?
    remember Triple C’s??? yeah they sold like 13K

  31. catcher freeman says:

    I think if i were rozay, i would fuck with my nigga lyor or jimmy io. I would not fuck with diddy on any circumstance or i wouldnt fuck with CMB just cuz i dont trust that nigga baby for shit. I would think about jay, after all he is the nigga that brought him to def jam. If def jam let him take mmg somewhere else, they are stupid, everything he touches turns platinum. I no ya stuck on the PO thing. Think this nigga buzz been so high sibce tgis time last year, and doesnt look like its gonna let up

  32. Catcher freeman says:

    my bad on the errors i was on the shitter LMAO with the phone

  33. R&G says:

  35. so ummm huh ?!? says:

    Wale & Ross hmmm *puzzled confused look, scratches head* this is theoretical physics all over again… Can someone please get me a tutor I just can’t figure out how this works…

  36. B. Digital says:

    I have a feeling that it will be Roc Nation or Interscope.

  37. iHate says:

    what the fuck is wale doin with ross?

  38. LikeJordan45 says:

    WHO THE FUCK CARES B???

    Stop giving these niggas so much head

  39. D says:

    Who would wanna sign Wale? lmao

    ”we don’t fuck with you musically”

  40. YMCMB says:

    He will sign with YMCMB come on every body who realease album go plat so welcome to the crew that keeps on winning!

  41. Cno says:

    Wale will be on WSHH few years later crying about Ross fucking him in the ass

  42. Boston George Cape Verd says:

    no wonder diddy is up Ross’s a$$, dont really care where they sign, but hopefully Masspike gets an album out of it

  43. your pusha says:

    wherever they go im supporting, i hope they get bigger coz to me rawse is the only rapper right now putting out hits consistently

  44. fuckfiddycents says:

    This is a no-brainer. MMG is going to Interscope with the aid of Puff’s connections. I mean Diddy manages him, he also endorses for Sean John and they are in a group together. Besides, I think he’s kinda loyal to Diddy b/c love him or hate him, he made Rosay BIGGG!!!

  45. HATE ALL U WANT THEY MAKING MOVES OVER AT MMG! STRONG CREW GETS TO SHINE FOR 3-5YRS CHECK THE LIST BADBOY,DEATHROW,THA ROC,DOUBLE R,CASHMONEY,G-UNIT,ETC LET THEM BOYS LIVE! MEEK MILL GONNA DO SOMETHING GOOD FOR ROSS WATCH!

  46. mr.300 says:

    Who is MMG besides Officer Ross is gonna sale records? Yung Berg has a bigger buzz than any clown on his label. Honestly is GunPlay gonna go Gold if he dropd and album this year? How about Torch? These clowns are garbage!

  47. Vm$ says:

    Rocnation! Ro$$ knows jay well n so dus Wale!

  48. Real Deal says:

    Where’s the eminem dickriders that say that he should sign to shady? since they think is the god of everything involving rap

    they probably will sign with diddy. but if they want to sell records/their musical creativity, they’ll sign with CMB. Idk if they should sign with Roc Nation. Although they have an amazing roster, they’ve dropped one album so far and that was the boss.

  49. Word says:

    Hahaha when MMG become a major label? What have they done? Ross barely went gold and he been out forever. Dont trust Jay neither though. Roc Nation is loaded with talent but Cole aint even got a release date for his album yet wtf? And dont trust Diddy the Vampire Mogul. He’ll suck you dry (#Pause) then throw you away and its on to the next one.

  50. Everybody Hates Chris (Bosh) says:

    Ross is obviously gonna ride with Diddy. Aren’t they the Bugati Boyz?

  51. Itsfarfromover1 says:

    He’s going YMCM Weezy and Ross have been working alot together since he’s been out and khaled just went over there. Birdman is planning something big

    Question: Where’d y’all think Rozay and his crew should take their talents to?
    Answer: out of this planet

  54. j says:

    NO ONE IS FUCKING WITH SHADY. NONE OF THIS FAGGOTS.

  55. Jojooui 212 QUEBEC CITY says:

    YMCMB also because of the loyalty thing yo by the time Rosay was suspected of being a Jailwarden they kept him by theyre side and Haitian never let him down Miami yep Cash money he got the H album to refresh also

  56. The Prophecy Child says:

    I’d rather have seen Wale somewhere else but oh well….how bout G-UNIT Records lls

  57. i said YERR says:

    s/o to all the real pple commenting on here saying “WHO GIVES A FUCK b/c RICK ROSS SUCKS”

    real talk … if u listen to / like / respect rick ross as rapper, KILL YA SELF

  58. DunkDonDaDa says:

    if he goes the interscope route that would put him on the same team as his enemy 50 cent, and if he goes with the birdman that is too many priorities on the same team, not saying their ill or anything, so i think hov and rocnation would be a perfect fit. not to go too much off subject but i thought LA was to lose his job at the begining of the year

  59. Gusto says:

    This is a joke right? Why would you even bother… these guys can’t sell. Wale & MIlls dope but they both got double wood potential in this climate. SMH. They’d be better of on their independent grind.

    I think this nigga should take his whole wack ass crew to hell with’em. Does that count?

  73. samyeezy says:

    Only way wale will succeed in this rap game is to stop being too lyrical for his own good. The guy makes metaphors that only him and his crew understands. Wale got that nice flow still. gots much respex for him tho. keep it up

  74. Mikk says:

    Get off officer rick’s dick you kiss ass. WARNING: if you invite YN to your party HE WILL SUCK YOUR DICK.

  79. boston-morgan says:

    hmmmm tough decision,. id say roc nation but i dont think its a good fit. id say stay with puff only cause he really likes rozay like he did biggie so hes lookin out for him. those beats for the buggati boyz is dope. puff got his hands on some nice production. id say through interscope baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad booooooooooooooy

  80. weasel says:

  92. The_Bizness says:

    With Him Being In Interscope With Em And 50 It Will Not Happen. To Join Cash Money Is Not Good To Much Stars Or Wanna Be’s Thats Why Def Jam Is A Flop Just A Matter Of Time Before Young Money Is A Memory . Roc Nation Is A Good Look Because They Will Have That Creative Freedom And Still It Will Be Something Different To Roc Nation. J.Cole And Jay Electronica Cant Bring In So Much Revenue To The Label. My Opinion

  93. MATIC says:

    50 SAYS WE DON’T WANT NO FAT CHICKS AT INTERSCOPE SSSSSSOWIE.

  94. Real talk says:

    Warner. They got talent, noteriety, and they wont be overshadowed by the boys over at Roc nation or Badboy. Prolly gonna end up at Badboy when its all said and done tho, him and diddy are too close.

  95. ME DATS WHO says:

    Congrats to whole MMG crew. Wale had some of the best production & guests on his album and it still sucked. He couldn’t hold his own, ON HIS OWN RECORD ! He was overshadowed by EVERYTHING !The only folks who might disagree with that one are groupies (male & female) trying to get on. Can’t hate’m tho. He attained what he set out to do. Wale is where he wants to be & where Rick needs him…………..a tax write off ! Them other cats ain’t even worth mention, Wale ain’t that BAD.

  96. Errol says:

    I really don’t care Cudi > Wale. Ross got the Bugatti Boyz. So… I still don’t care. Shouts out to Bossman

  97. J225 says:

    Honestly,if he goes to roc nation it’s a smart move if the touring power that company yields plus Ross tours like crazy already,plus he has a solid relationship with Hov. If he goes with Diddy, and interscope, it’s a good move and its a blatant jab to fifty, kinda like saying out with the old, and in with the new, and it puts him in proximity to shady and dr dre, both of whom he has constantly said that he wants to work with, and lastly it’s good look for him to go cmb, because right now with his rising star post and thier star power, and the stable of artists and producers that they have growing, its a win win situation over there as well.

  98. Huh says:

    it depends on where your going to b a priority. The last place u want to b is in a crowded house.

  99. iknowGOODmusic says:

    yall forgettng how good of relatinship ross hass with dj khaled. and where did he just sign to? YMCMB, along with COOL & DRE!!!!! and sum of yall half way right, this group is garbage with th exception of WALE n ross. wale like the diamond in the rough of the group. he can spit and got a hella nice flow. more about nothing was dope as fuck, and it would be tight to see him with wayne n ross on some cool n dre beats. but ross def need to build his squad up, like eminem doing….ross tried to sign wiz, he goin in the right direction if he tryin to get guys like him and wale!

If u support this x cop U R A DICK RIDER.How the fuk u come out with a song call EVERYDAY IM HUSTLING AND U WERE A C O. Then on top of that u deny it and slander a real nigga like Trick Daddy calling him a liar, ask ur self, is that the actions of a real nigga? Fuk no!! Birds of a feather kick it together,thats the way it is. So look in the mirror if u support Rozey O’Donnell , fuking clown.I give it to him his music sounds(SOUNDS) hot. But shit that comes out his mouth is false. The man is what me and my niggaz called flawed. Him and Diddy are Money Gangster. With no money low level street niggaz would feast on their carcass. They would be nothing.To the real niggaz who know this to true ,Salute. All u Rozey O’Donell fans look in the mirror…LOL ,Rozey !!! Cute Name for a female rapper.

  113. 6 Million Ways To Live says:

    Rick Ross needs to go with Diddy and Iovine or Warner.

    Jay Z only knows how to sell Jay Z cds when it comes to rap (Ask Bleek, Beans, Amil, Cool J, Tru Life, Uncle Murda, Da Ranjahz, or Dame.) and Roc Nation does not NEED a rapper.

    Birdman CMB: Remember what happened when Snoop joined No Limit? CMB does not NEED a rapper

    Puff and Iovine are fuckin plugged and Puff NEEDS a go to rapper.

    Warner NEEDS a rapper.

  114. onblastmedia says:

    I think Rozays fake ass should go with either Interscope(copy the blueprint of Shady/aftermath/G-unit) or E-1(Formally Koch) and take it independent and cake off the sales because Ross really never pushes past gold and with Koch he will see more of that money then being with a major. Real talk I know for a fact Ross still owes def jam for those last two albums he dropped with the big budget and didnt go platinum.
