Music Rumors: Did Solange get dropped from Geffen Records?


According to Black Voices, Solange has been dropped by her label Geffen/Interscope Records. But the story gets a little deeper.

Apparently, the news of Kelly Rowland being dropped from Columbia was done on purpose (so shocked) so that attention could be drawn away from Solange's axed contract with her label. Oh, but it gets even deeper...

A source goes on to say that Matthew Knowles is in talks with Epic Records to sign Solange. Now prior to their meetings, Epic Records had already offered a deal to Kelly to sign with their label. However, seeing that there are talks between Matty and the label, the deal with Kelly might be off.


"Amanda was really into signing Kelly and then Matthew started meeting with her about Solange. I'm told he used his influence in the Sony system with Beyonce to complicate the existing offer to Kelly and then the deal ultimately didn't happen," the source explained." -via Black Voices
Well, according to Solange who took to her Twitter upon getting word of the news of her being dropped or supposedly being dropped, she had this to say

"Ren and Stimpy “you stooppid idioots part 19″ lol. Today, April 7, 09 I am still on Music World/Geffen/ Interscope records..."
Hmmm OK....

It is being said that there is a slight chance that Kelly might be announcing a new record deal in the weeks to come.
