Vado Signs To DJ Khaled's We The Best Imprint

CrookedLetter · January 20

Vado has signed a deal with DJ Khaled's We The Best label, a subsidiary of Cash Money Records.

Taking to Twitter, the Cam'Ron affiliate wrote that he is "taking my talents 2 South Beach #WTB." He also retweeted one of his followers that wrote, "@VADO_MH COMING OUT WITH HIS NEW TAPE AND SIGNING WITH KHALID #ITSAGOODYEAR."

The Harlem, New York rapper previously signed with Interscope Records in March 2011. He got relatively silent on the music front, fueling rumors that he had been dropped from the label.

He recently gave an interview where he explained how the company heeded his request to leave the company on his own accord. "I feel like I shouldn’t have even went all the way to the West Coast," he said. "I feel I should’ve stayed grounded with the New York labels. They understand and know me so they know how to handle me, they know what to do. You go all the way over there; they don’t know what’s going on. So now, I gotta fix everything up and I gotta work with their music. It was just a whole big difference to the point that I had to ask for my walking papers."

wonder why he signed to called instead of straight to Cash Money. Not even sure this is a good move for him but khaled does push Ace Hood so maybe he will get the exposure he wants... Is he still under the UN?

This nigga signed to a nigga, that's signed to another nigga, that's signed to a Jewish nigga.

Well this might help him get more exposure..I dunno if I would've signed to what's basically 1 label under another label. I guess we'll see how it goes in the long run

Any kind of exposure would be good for vado. Imagine him jumping on khaleds big records like ace hood.

Nooooo lol I dont want himnto sign to khaled cuz I dont fuck wit him and nobody wit cash/young money. But on the other hand if khaled could make a name for ace hood then vado can finally get exposure. I just hope V dont go away from what made me like him in the first place.

i got 2 words: ace hood
and in the sub group of those 2 words i got another 2 words: 3 albums
ace hood has dropped almost as many albums as jeezy
as mediocre and generic as ace hood is/was that nigga has dropped 3 albums
vado made a good move
khaled put in work for his artists
