Share By Patrick ⋅ March 21, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Drake and Nicki Minaj aren’t the only ones in Young Money creating industry buzz. Now teen rapper Lil Twist, who has long been associated with Young Money has officially signed his deal with rapper Lil Wayne’s label Young Money Entertainment. Lil Twist who has over 1 million views on myspace has officially inked his contract with Universal/Young Money, with a rumored 1.3 million dollar signing bonus.

Lil Twist’s highly successful debut mixtape “The Year Book“ which featured Lil Wayne, Mack Maine, Lil Za, Chu, and Kevlar received over 500,000 downloads online. His follow-up mixtape “Class President” also garnered major attention and featured his Young Money peers Gudda Gudda, Nicki Minaj, Short Dawg, Tyga, and Cash Money CEO Birdman.

Notably was his most recent song with Lil Chuckee titled “Girl I Got You” which was featured on the Young Money compilation album. After shooting a video for the track alongside Lil Wayne (who makes a cameo) the video was featured on BET’s 106 and Park.

Twist’s debut album is set for release late this summer. His official single “Love Affair” is gaining lots of attention from the fans and he is shooting a video for that in the upcoming week. Twist is also recording new music with good friend and pop sensation Justin Beiber for a mixtape titled “Best Of Both Worlds”.

  18. Wow all this time I thought Twist was an official artist. Only to here he’s just been signed for 1.3 million thats cool but I got talent as well. Put a price I’m worth the ink on any contract but I prefer Young Money/Cash Money on cash I’m 18.

  24. No, the only people officially signed to Young Money are Drake and Nicki, now Twist. Young Money has an exclusive deal with Universal, so all their talent has to be signed to Universal as well. Universal ain’t gone sign anyone who hasn’t established a buzz. Er1 else on Young Money is just affiliated. Why u think they dropping mixtapes and not albums, they tryn to create a buzz. They not on the major yet (1.3 milli level)

  37. I guess he was in Young Money but not signed yet. What do a $1.3 million bonus mean. Is that how much hes gonna get paid after hsi contract? What is a contract with music rappers anyway. he don’t make albums

  39. Lyrically Weezy is untouchable and twist will learn how to be a true rockstar so this is a good thing.

    Posted by lilwaynenews | March 22, 2010, 8:54 pm

  40. I work in the music industry, being signed to YOUNG MONEY & being signed to YOUNG MONEY/UNIVERSAL are two different things. Young Money the group already have a major deal each individual member cannot put out a album without a distribution deal with a MAJOR label. Whether they choose Universal as that major, is really up to them and depends on the other offers they have. Either way its a VERY good look for Twist.
