Twista Launches GMG With New Speednot Mobstaz LP

Chicago-based rap star Twista is getting a little help from his Speedknot Mobstaz crew to launch his new Get Money Gang (GMG) record label.

 

The imprint’s first release will be Mobstability II: Nation Bizness, the follow-up to the Speedknot Mobstaz’ 1998 RIAA certified gold debut Mobstability.

 

The trio, comprised of Liffy Stokes, Mayz and Skooda, is among a lot of artists that GMG will work with via other labels.

 

For Twista, the label represents a chance for music fans to "hear real music coming from the heart of the Chi."

 

"I am dedicated to making this GMG label a movement first in Chicago, then nationwide," Twista said. "If you got real talent and about getting money, then you got a spot at my label."

 

To coincide with the release of Mobstability II, the Speedknot Mobstaz will perform in more than 20 cities across the US as part of the Rock the Vote tour.

 

Additionally, the group will introduce the video for its new single "Money To Blow" next week on BET’s Rap City.

 

With more than 700,000 copies of the first Mobstability album sold and a half a million copies sold from three compilations, the timing couldn’t be better to unleash their newest project for fans, according to Stokes.

 

"No lie, this album is on some real street s**t, none of that ringtone s**t," the rapper said.

 

"This music we’re putting out is for the everyday hustla on the grind. It’s been a long time coming for me and the crew, now that everything is in place we can finally give the fans what they want."

 

Speedknot Mobstaz’ Mobstability II: Nation Bizness is slated to hit stores on May 27.

I've been a fan of Twista's for years (that joint he had with Timbaland "Who Am I" is classic) but I think he should just give it up now. Either that or get Kanye to produce a bunch of songs for him. Kanye saved his career.

That first single off his last CD with Pharrell was garbage. He's gotta step his game up.

Twistas Been My favorite Rapper Since The First Adrenalin Rush. But He Really Needs to Let Go Of This "I Dont Write Anymore" Attitude Because He's Been Spittin Alot Of "Freestyle" Garbage. PLEASE GO BACK TO WRITING MY NIGGA cause You Was Nice. And Honesly Adrenalin Rush 2007 Was Garbage. And I Know That Cause I Actually Went And Bought It To Support The Music. But I Was Disapointed. Adrenalin Rush CLASSIC Kamikaze CLASSIC Day After DECENT Adrenalin Rush 2007 GARBAGE. I Sure Hope Mobstability Is At Least NICE Cause Honestly I'm Still A Fan....This KASH Representin SOUTHSIDE Of PHOENIX Homie.
