It is a good thing. Will is an established artist and household name. They'll pretty much let him get on with whatever he wants and I'm assuming Jeff gonna have creative control which they won't mind either.

What does Aftermath have to do with this ? People keep mentioning it...

i still dont believe that news story yet.. overbrook prob already has distrubition through interscope..they had it through dreamworks which has now merged with geffen/interscope.. distibution and being signed by interscope are 2 different things.. hopefully we'll get the latest when will promotes shark tale

heh-heh-heh-heh-heh... I know Jimmy Iovine is pleased..

we need some more details on the deal though.. Does Will own his master tapes?

since he's more or less got "access" to interscope collaborations, then is a cut with Dr. Dre far behind.. he may do something with the Peas, too.. but eminem? ehh.. I guess em apologized for the swipe on "real slim shady", but unless em is gonna clean it up, i don't see the two of them collaborating..

producers needed- Jazzy Jeff, Rick Rubin, DJ Premier...

Oh, and a song with MJB, but what about JILL SCOTT? Edited by Hypestyle

I hate to burst everyone's bubble but there is no statement whatsoever about Will signing to Interscope on Interscope's website. I know this isn't "the sign" but if a person of Will's stature generates absolutely no buzz on the label's official website then....

I'm not saying anything, I'm just saying...

If this is true, i wouldn't call it good newz or bad newz. However, Interscope hasn't had any big players since the mid-90's. They've turned in2 a label that only distributes smaller labels. Nothing special about Interscope at all. If they just distribute Overbrook, and FP stays as an Overbrook artist, that would be cool.

I still don't think there is anything special about Interscope. Look at the artists above, pretty much every single one of them is on a smaller label that is only distributed thru' them. Interscope is hardly the brains behind the music or promotion.
