Reports today suggest that 50 Cent will soon be taking his record label international with a new European distribution deal for G-Unit Records.
According to reports, 50 Cent is planning to open an office for his pet project in the United Kingdom via a new marketing and distribution deal with the independent label PIAS Group.
“Last year we took the decision to restructure the label and begin to carve out it’s own world-wide distribution, marketing and promotions strategy, said Nikki Martin, Vice President, G-Unit Records & Entertainment. “After signing with EMI for North America we looked at who could help develop the brand in other key territories and we decided to partner with PIAS who shared our vision and passion for the music.”
50’s UK’s office will be headed up by renowned DJ, Dan Greenpeace, who is a highly influential figure in the UK music industry and could hopefully lead to opportunities for more UK and Irish artists to land themselves a deal with a worldwide branded label.
PIAS is one of Europe’s leading independent music labels, launched in 1982 by Kenny Gates & Michel Lambot and headquartered in Brussels it also has local offices in the UK, France, Germany, The Netherlands and Spain.
