 Acclaimed
singer/songwriter, and frequent guest collaborator on a host of other
hip-hop superstar's albums, Lil' Mo, has signed with Cash Money's
newest venture, Roun'Table Entertainment, and will be releasing her
new album, Syndicated (The Lil' Mo Hour) this spring. The album
features guest appearances by Fabolous, hip-hop violinist Miri Ben-Ari,
Baby, Lil Wayne and her daughter Heaven.
The first single from the album, "Yeah Yeah Yeah" featuring
the hip-hop violinist Miri Ben-Ari hits radio February 22nd. For Lil'
Mo, who has written or recorded with everyone from Missy Elliott to Ja
Rule to Jay-Z, among others, her entrée into the Cash Money fold is a
crowning achievement in a career that has delivered two pinnacle
albums, her acclaimed debut Based On A True Story (2001), and Meet The
Girl Next Store (2003). Both disks included classic collaborations
with longtime friend and mentor Missy Elliott, with the versatile Lil'
Mo writing most of the songs on both albums.
Ronald 'Slim' Williams, co-founder of Cash Money and one of the main
catalysts behind the Roun'Table venture welcomes Lil' Mo to the Cash
Money family. "Lil' Mo can do it all and then some," says
Williams. "She's the perfect artist to kick off our relationship
with Roun'Table."
Merlin Bobb, veteran A&R executive and President of Roun'Table
Entertainment agrees with Williams. "I've worked with Mo for
several years and I am still surprised by how much energy and talent
she possesses. We're thrilled to be on board with Cash Money and
Universal and ecstatic that Mo's album is the inaugural release of our
venture together."
The Long Island native has worked with Keith Sweat, Bow Wow, the late
Ol' Dirty Bastard, and Fabolous. Lil' Mo will be featured in upcoming
issues of Sister 2 Sister, Hype Hair, Sophisticates Black Hair, and
YRB Magazine.
