Rapper Rapsody Has Signed With Record label Roc Nation 

BHR Hollywood Reports..........Following a slew of critically-acclaimed releases through 9th Wonder’s Jamla Records, North Carolina MC Rapsody has announced a new deal with Roc Nation.

This doesn’t mean the end of her Jamla partnership, however. Via Instagram, the NC spitter delivered the news. “Welcome to JamRoc,” she wrote. “#Jamla #Rocnation.”

Rapsody, who has long been affiliated with 9th Wonder‘s talent gauntlet, Jamla Records, may seem like a left-field signing, but her ties to Jay Z aren’t as shallow as you might think.

 As the story goes, she once gave Jay Z a CD in an office lobby prior to meeting him in 2013 backstage on the Magna Carta Holy Grail tour, by which time Hov was already hip to her many talents, and even went so far as in to give her a silent co-sign.

Of course, these accounts have traveled across the internet through word-of-mouth, but they sure seem to have validity given today’s developments.

 The fact that Rap has worked so closely with 9th Wonder is likely not a coincidence either, considering 9th Wonder produced on Hov’s initial “retirement” LP, The Black Album, in 2003, and the two have maintained a relationship.

Trusted Jay Z engineer Young Guru also offered up congrats and confirmation.

Yes @rapsody is now a @RocNation artist. I told ya we not playing with Jamla. Welcome to Jam/Roc!!
