Hip-Hop Rumors: Is Mannie Fresh Joining The G.O.O.D. Music Family??
We already know that the ex-Big Tymer, Mannie Fresh, is down with the G.O.O.D. Music family and team based on photos and videos that have hit the ‘Net over the past few weeks from the London recording sessions of the upcoming G.O.O.D. Music album, but is an official signing in the works? In a recent interview with HipHopDX, it would appear so, according to the the man who has produced over 30 Hot 100 singles in his career. Check out the excerpts below: “Well, we working that out. I’m kind of funny about signing with people. Dude, I’ve been through so much. And I’m not saying I think Kanye is a bad person, but I can’t tell you what that is right now. It’s really on me, and what space I’m in. I’m not saying that I wouldn’t do it, but it’s gotta be something that makes sense for me.” When asked about any formal offers or an “extending of the hand”, Mannie said: “I can’t really say if [there was]. It’s one of them things where – Let me just put it like this, Kanye is kinda mysterious about the things that he do. And I can’t really let no cats out the bag. I’m sorry to give you an answer like that, but I can’t really say what’s in the works. Y’all just gotta wait to see what happens.” This can only be a good thing for both parties, so keep your fingers crossed!
