Posted by Aldo Pusey on Wednesday, August 7, 2024

Rick Ross and his Maybach Music Group have announced a partnership with Gamma, the multimedia platform that also calls home to Usher and Sexyy Red.

MMG has previously released music from Ross, Meek Mill, Wale and Gunplay, in a partnership with Epic Records. The new deal with Gamma will see Ross releasing music on the shingle in addition to spearheading multimedia projects. To celebrate the announcement, Ross has reunited with Mill for the single “Shaq & Kobe,” marking a reconciliation between the two in the wake of a rumored riff. The pair plan to release a full-length collaborative album in the future.

Additionally, Ross’ longtime business partner and manager Breyon Prescott joins Gamma as executive VP of content, also bringing along his Chameleon Music Group, which previously held a joint venture with J Records and RCA. The executive, formerly head of urban music at Epic Records, has worked with artists including Brandy, Diddy and Dr. Dre.
