Lloyd Signs With Interscope Records

    Yesterday, MTV reported that singer Lloyd has inked a deal with Interscope Records. Formerly an artist signed to Irv Gotti‘s Murder Inc., Lloyd spent most of his career at Universal Motown, where of recent, he began a strong association with Lil Wayne’s Young Money label.

    Most notably, Lloyd had a heavy hand in 2009 hit “Bedrock” with the members of Young Money. “I love the way Interscope gets down. I love the way Jimmy [Iovine, label head] gets down. I’ve always had a good working relationship with Polow [da Don, producer]. Having that creative partner is something I wanted to have, since the very beginning, to have that one creative partner,” Lloyd told MTV.

    The singer said he expects to release his first Interscope album this year, and said that his decision not to sign with Young Money had a lot to do with the fact that he would remain at Universal Motown.

    1. Please, interscope hired and then drop an artist after a period of time. They might just keep your record push back till your contract is up.

    2. cool article but why does everything on this site lead to wayne or drake seriously im fuckin sick of hear about those no talens

    3. What did Lloyd Banks have to do with this story other than the fact that they both share the name Lloyd? lol

      1. Lloyd Banks leaves Interscope Records and R&B Singer Lloyd enters Interscope Records…That’s what they both have in common and that’s Jimmy Iovine and Interscope.

      2. Didnt Lloyd Banks leave like..last year though? Which just makes me believe they only put him in the description to get people to click the link as Lloyd Banks on an article would probably get more traffic than Lloyd on an article (on a hip hop site anyway)

    7. i think the black military thing is racist wat if their was a whitemilitary friends web site. your site is racist if its not for everyone its racist……

      1. Fool the south lowered the standards, thus fucking up the industry, before you had to have some type of talent, some skills, now you just have to be a dancing, funny dressing nigga that cant talk, ask waca focka fame

      2. How are people going to talk down on the south? THe greatest rapper alive, Jay-Z, even said if he had sense he’d rap like Common, but Common don’t make no cents. Even thought Jay is a great rapper, he knows what to do and say to make money. Who from the north, west or midwest is talking about something. Only a few cats like Jay, Talib, Mos Def, Kanye and Common. There are other cats, but not highly known. Other cats from places other than the south talk about gangsta ish most of the time and that’s not hip hop either.

    8. Wowwwwwwwwwww!!!Recently, I came across a hot military dating site.

      —-**Black military friends dot come**—-

      There are many sassy ladies and handsome military guys seeking fun, friendship, love ,marriage and even more!!!!! Maybe you wanna check out or tell your friends.

    9. Lloyd is a very talented artist, true all of his songs havent been hits but he has an unique voice and is still fairly new to the game. He’s been hopping from label to label but once he gets established he is gonna blow up…one of the most under rated rnb artists out now.

    10. I really think Lloyd is a good artist and yes, he defo has a unique voice. the only thing is hes been changing from label to label so obviously it wont be easy to release a hit. he just needs to find a good label where he can settle but otherwise hes songs are really good. he just needs to keep on releasing them songs and albums and not go too quiet for too long coz then ppl forget bwt u when u go quiet for too long. really, he shud just keep on, and he’l keep rising next thing hez the IT thing of r n b. but i love him and i hope he doesnt go quiet for too long again, hope he actually starts working on a new album soon.
