The Carter Factor

Source:ALLhiphop

 


Jay-Z is taking his presidential duties at Def Jam seriously. The rapper-turned-mogul has founded The Carter Administration and it’s not representative of former United States president Jimmy Carter. “The Carter Administration represents everyone that works A&R for Roc-A-Fella,” said a representative for Jay-Z. “It's a collective because everyone is part of the project.” The A&R (Artist and Repertoire) is the division of a record label that scouts and cultivates talent, among other duties.

The New York post reported today (May 9) that Damon Dash is close to ending his Dame Dash Music Group label’s association with Universal. The Post stated that Dash angered Universal executives by asking for more marketing and promotion money. Dash allegedly took just two projects with him, Nicole Wray and Ol’ Dirty Bastard. In the previous weeks, former DDMG artists M.O.P. and Cam’ron revealed that they were off Dame’s label and in new deals. Dash will also be phasing out his managerial duties at Rocawear, which he owns with Jay-Z. Def Jam dismissed the reports last week.
