I’m sure a lot of you remember, during the Roc the Mic tour this past summer Roc-A-Fella hosted battles in every city. The winner was said to have a shot at a contract with the Roc. So Copywrite, part of the Eastern Conference, MHz and Weathermen crews and well known in the underground, took part and won. The rumors and speculation then ran wild as to whether or not Copy was headed to the Roc.
It may be a bit late, or maybe it is just now that he actually has something to say about matters, but Copy cleared the air via his message board at mhzsite.com. Here is what he had to say:
“There’s been some speculation about me signing with Roc-a-fella records floating around for some time now & to clear things up a bit, yes, I am in the process of working something out with them. Bee-high, (manager of Young Gunz, Memphis Bleek, Just Blaze & Jay Dilla) has been managing me & is in talks with Dame Dash about some things.At this point, I am not & have never signed any contract with Eastern Conference, though I appreciate everything that they have done for me.The next thing that I’m releasing will be a mixtape with 12-13 tracks (all new verses & production from Jay Dilla, Jake One, Bink!, & J-Zone). Hopefully, this clears things up for anyone waiting on new material from me. Thanks for your support or hate (both drive me equally).”
