The Indies: Public Enemy Gives Redeye A Whirl For Distrib Deal
BY TODD MARTENS
Veteran rap outfit Public Enemy has found a home for its forthcoming album at Haw River, N.C.-based Redeye Distribution. "New Whirl Odor," the group's first studio recording in three years, is due Nov. 1.
The exclusive U.S. distribution arrangement will also include other artists on Slam Jamz Media, the label run by Public Enemy leader Chuck D and his attorney Daniel Lugo. Slam Jamz has been primarily Internet-based, issuing only a handful of releases to traditional retailers. Public Enemy's previous effort, 2002's "Revolverlution," was released to retail via Koch Records and has sold 71,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan. A Koch representative says the label is working on a compilation of live Public Enemy tracks, which will end its deal with the group.
"New Whirl Odor" will come with a DVD, as will all Slam Jamz albums, Redeye distribution/A&R director Stephen Judge says. The album, recorded with original members Flavor Flav and Professor Griff, features a collaboration with Moby, "MKLVFKWR (Make Love, Fuck War)," that was first released on a U.K. benefit album last year.
Other Slam Jamz acts scheduled for release by Redeye include soul artist Kyle Jason, the Professor Griff-led rock project 7th Octave and hip-hop collective the Impossibulls.
Redeye's deal with Slam Jamz is its highest-profile hip-hop pickup. In the past, Redeye has distributed albums from Jeru the Damaja and the Pharcyde. "This is another step in our attempt to diversify our catalog," Judge says, "and show we're a distributor that can really make things happen."
Ich hoffe nicht dass das Aus für das Album zusammen mit Paris ist...
