Xist Music's recent Malaco partnership and subsequent relaunch means for many new faces joining the label in addition to a full label re-branding. Xist Music recently added former 1st and 15th recording artist, Gemstones, to their record label roster.
Gemstones has built a solid following and appeals to a broad range of rap music fans both inside and out of the mainstream. That appeal is driven through his experiences in the mainstream such as appearances on the MTV program "My Block" and MTV2's "Suckerfree Countdown". Those accomplishments along with MTV and MTV2 airplay for "Got What You Need" have continued to propel this driven artist to new heights. "I'm just happy to be on board and a part of the team. I'm ready to work and do great things with these guys," says Gemstones.
Xist Music is rebuilding its roster and Gemstones is part of the new and bright future for the label. "This is an artist I am proud we were able to bring to the team" says T. Black, CEO of Xist Music. "Gemstones is an exceptional talent and we're excited to partner with him."
Xist Music is wasting no time, as Gemstones is immediately heading into the studio to record an upcoming mixtape with the bulk of the production being done by Grammy winning producer extraordinaire J.R.
Gemstones has featured on many Lupe Fiasco tracks. In more recent times he's been following Christ, and has been expressing his faith on some free mixtapes.
