So So Def Close To New Distribution Deal
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports Jermaine Dupri’s label, So So Def, is about to ink a new distribution deal with Arista Records, headed by part-time Antonio ‘L.A.’ Reid. He’ll take acts like Da Brat and budding singer Fundisha with him, but big-selling sprite Bow Wow and Atlanta R&B quartet Jagged Edge will remain at So So Def’s former home, Columbia Records.
