I don’t keep up with Solange Knowles since she’s abandoned her music to become a Twitter star and the girlfriend of an obviously bisexual rapper (Wale).
But DC Rumors is all over the news about Solange getting dropped from her label (which gives her more time to devote to twittering and her down low pursuits).
DCRumours can officially report that Solange Knowles is no longer signed to Interscope/Geffen Records.
This news is no shock to me – quoting a song from Solange’s ‘Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams’ CD, ‘I Told You So’ – as this column originally reported that the label intended to part ways with Beyonce’s little sister last April.
Our previous story caused a firestorm of backlash from both Solange and her father/manager, Mathew Knowles.
At the time, Knowles sent over this unedited statement: “Our joint venture with Music World and Interscope/Geffen/A&M is very much in placed for Solange. It’s very disappointing in recent days the amount of false statements in the marketplace from Solange being drop to me accused of being Kelly Rowland’s father.”
Additionally, Solange took to Twitter to blast us by writing: “Ren and Stimpy “you stooppid idioots part 19? lol. Today, April 7, 09 I am still on Music World/Geffen/ Interscope records…”
There was also a lot of behind the scenes begging and pleading to have the story killed and removed, nonetheless it was true all along.
Denials aside, we have learned that the label parted ways with Solange about 30 days after our initial story ran.
“They just waited for the buzz to die down and quietly ended their relationship with her,” a source close to the label told us.
Though Solange has been currently recording new music for her third solo CD, that music is being recorded independently as she has yet to ink a new deal with another label.
Maybe she’ll title that CD, ‘I Apologize’ and dedicate it to me!
We have reached out to Music World Entertainment for a new comment on this story – though since they lied once, I’m sure they’ll lie again. Read more…
