Speaking of new signings, big moves over at the Roc lately. A couple weeks ago, it became official that Dame has signed Grafh, and this week word got out that N.O.R.E. is also now with the Dynasty. The Nore news is real exciting, although kind of weird, since he was already on Def Jam, but judging from "Niggarican" and CNN's "People Know", him and Just Blaze are a potent combo. With the exception of Cam, for some reason Roc-A-Fella has a habit of dropping the ball whenever they sign an established artist (it's pretty clear at this point that MOP and Dirt McGirt are not a priority). Hopefully that trend won't continue with Noreaga. And in a surprising dummy move, Dame is letting his #1 post-Jay unit shifter Kanye take his Very Good imprint over to Interscope. Granted, I wouldn't want to have to put out a GLC album either, but I'd take it as a trade off to get Consequence and John Legend.

Comments:
Actually I hear that Kanye's label is going to Sony.
