Jay-Z soon to be unstoppable:
May 29, 2009 Jay-Z, Record Label

The rapper is apparently negotiating a deal with WMG/Atlantic about making his own record label. Supposedly this deal will make him virtually unstoppable. A source said the following about Jay-Z’s expansion plans: “Jay’s deal with Live Nation is massive. But if he were to cut a deal with WMG/Atlantic, he’d make even more headlines. Jay-Z, Lyor Cohen and Kevin Liles are all brand names. They’re the industry’s heavy hitters, and the combination would bring them a lot of attention. They would be unstoppable. Jay himself is the most successful rapper-turned-businessman out there.” Maybe this is why so many have not been able to perform lately… Jay-Z probably hired some voodoo people to put a halt to their activities while he makes his big break. Still, I am puzzled: what kind of a rapper is Jay-Z anyway if he doesn’t have his own record label yet?
