Stalley is officially an MMG artist once again – but it’s not Maybach Music Group. Rick Ross’ former signee has found a new label home with Mello Music Group, Billboard confirmed on Thursday (March 4).
“I’m very excited about the situation and the opportunity with Mello Music Group,” the Ohio native said in a statement. “Partnering with Mello Music at this stage of my career is a blessing. As a label, they let you be yourself and let you be an artist; while also helping you expand independently.”
The move comes following Stalley’s release of three EPs throughout the quarantine in 2020 – April’s Pariah, September’s Speak No Blue and October’s Cake. He also released a compilation album with his Blue Collar Gang dubbed BCG Algorithm Vol. 1, which featured BCG artists Vada Azeem, Gerald Walker, Life Dutchee and Rockie Fresh.

His last release through Rozay’s MMG imprint was 2016’s Saving Yusef mixtape. He’d been with the label since 2011 when he was part of a then-growing roster that included Meek Mill, Wale and Atlanta rapper Pill, and eventually quietly parted ways in 2017.
He’s continued to tour and release projects since and will hopefully amplify that even further with his new MMG home.

Gar bage i turn like door knobs
Man! RIP. I loved that Ohio album. After Bone Thugs, he was the biggest rapper out of Ohio. His name should stand alone in the title of this article, not that he was Rick Ross rapper as if he was a nobody.
HUmmms kid cudi
He was not the next big thing outta Ohio since Bone. Lil Bow Wow was the next and still is the biggest outta Ohio since Bone.
Stalley’s going to struggle big time to get anything out under mellow. At mmg, he was running that placd
Better fit for him. Mello music group has an impressive line up.
