ARTIST

BRIDGET KELLY

In 2008, Bridget Kelly was more than ready to take her singing career to the next level, writing songs every day and performing regularly at open mic shows in clubs around downtown NYC; once even on a subway platform in Union Square! It was later that same year, after her management landed a once in a lifetime meeting with Roc Nation’s A&R team, that Bridget’s tenacity paid off – she was signed to her first major recording and publishing deal. As the saying goes “timing is everything,” and Bridget’s time has certainly come! She’s currently working on her debut album with a vastly creative group of producers and musicians, scheduled for release in 2010.

HUGO

Unlike most manufactured mainstream acts, singing and songwriting sensation Hugo exudes a rarely found brand of effortless cool. Whenever discussing his first US releaseOld Tyme Religion, Hugo is instantly at home thanks to his brilliant debut’s mix of rock, soul and Mekong Delta Blues. Hugo and Old Tyme Religion introduce a new audience to multiple international influences, style and true soul through lyrics and music- Roc Nation.com

J.COLE

The rap world is at a crossroads. With such a diverse display, J. Cole (born Jermaine Cole) is poised to wake up a dormant industry and cement his name in this game. But more than that, with his debut studio album currently in production, he hopes to change the tide of current rap music, swaying it in a more insightful, meaningful and passionate direction. Looking to excel where his contemporaries have failed, North Carolina native J. Cole brings promise of a new day in hip-hop music.

Alexis Jordan will not only impress each and every person who listens to her album, but she also hopes to inspire them as well.

i-GOTNEXT: ROC NATION

Roc Nation" is an American record label, management and music publishing company founded by Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter. Jay-Z, no longer heading Def Jam . Inked a deal with Live Nation to set up an imprint called Roc Nation. Implementing a reportedly redesigned business model

According to The New York Times, Jay-Z deal with concert promoter Live Nation for $150 million, one of the richest contracts ever awarded to a musician. This partnership includes financing for Jay-Z's own entertainment ventures (which are expected to become a record label, talent/management agency, and music publishing company). Live Nation is expected to contribute $5 million a year in overhead for five years, with another $25 million available to finance Jay-Z's acquisitions or investments. Roc Nation would then split profits with Live Nation. Jay-Z the first hip-hop artist to sign with Live Nation


Roc Nation handles a sizable roster of emerging producers and songwriters, who can be plugged into recording projects in various combinations on a full-service basis. Jay Brown, Roc Nation’s creative mastermind, envisions the company as ultimately bypassing outside entities altogether and doing everything in-house—signing acts, making records and distributing them in whatever way they see fit—a setup modeled on Berry Gordy’s original Motown.

Jay-Z, who inked a much-publicized $150 million, 360-deal with Live Nation in April, 2008, recently bought back his completed album from UMG for a reported $5 million, raising the question whether that album will now be part of the Sony pact
