Def Jam Recordings has signed an exclusive long-term joint venture agreement with
Timbaland and his
Mosley Music Group. The first release,
Cosha TG’s debut EP,
SUMMER NIGHTS, is out today on
Good Vibes Forever/Mosley Music/Def Jam.
“Timbaland is nothing short of a living legend, having redefined and pushed the sound of hip-hop forward for decades,” said Def Jam Chairman & CEO
Paul Rosenberg. “We are so proud and excited to partner with him on this next chapter of his remarkable journey.”
Timbaland praised Rosenberg, saying, “Paul has an entrepreneurial perspective on our industry, as he comes from not only the label side of the business but management as well. Our Mosley Music team and roster are proud to be aligned with such an iconic label as Def Jam.”
Cosha TG—born
Marcus Lindsey—is a 21-year-old out of Chicago who signed to Good Vibes Forever in 2017, and Mosley Music last year. He is currently featured on
Lil Zay Osama’s “War.”
Mosley Music started in 2006 and was initially distributed by
