Tommy Boy will scale back their operation and, according to sources, 80 employees will be let go. Warner Music will buy out the remaining 50% of the label from founder Tom Silverman, who will retain several artists and the Tommy Boy name. According to sources, the label is not going out of business as has been rumored, but will begin to focus their attention on dance music. “We will still be here in the same location with a few less acts and a smaller staff,” Silverman told allhiphop.com. “Leaner & meaner like all the survivors in 2002.”
