There had been rumors swirling around for weeks about this partnership, as well as rumbles that Hov would attempt to sign 50 Cent, and Janet Jackson to this "super label." With this deal, StarRock becomes the first partnership for Roc Nation, which is Jay-Z's Venture with the concert distribution group "Live Nation."
Hov spoke very highly about Stargate, proclaiming: "Stargate were like a secret weapon, we had great success with Rihanna and Ne-Yo. In only 2 years, they've generated 10 singles in the Top 10 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart and 3 of those singles hit the # 1 position.
In other news…
This has been a rewarding partnership and it was time to take the creative venture to the next level.”
This new "superlabel" will focus on signing artist and use a developement plan that uses stratagetic global partnerships. They will do this with the help of Roc Nation, who will assist them by, providing a direct connection through the marketing and global distribution.

Jay Z is always trying to get that money
Damn....Roc Nation, Rocafella, Star Roc...This nigguh is an Ultimate Hip-Hop Heavy Weight.
he knows how to cut out the middle-man.. and he has the balls to gamble with his money and investments. thats why hes so successful.. He wins.
let's hope this label has more success then rocafella as of late. Shit was becoming the new bad boy
jay dont need none of yall to buy a cd...hes' good wit money ,he owns labels dummy..weezy kisses men!!!on the lips!!!
starRock why not rockStar
too cliche
His album is gonna be good. I mean it's Hov, he comes up with a concept and keeps it down pact 100%. I'm sure it won't be another reasonable doubt. Fuck it, Jay proved himself to be one the greatest of all time. I support Hov.
Hov for President!!!
lmao
Blue Print 3 is gon be classic, i bet his album is going to be better than the carter 3, but he might not sale as much cuz jus about everyone listens to wayne, jigga still got fans but weezy's fans and haters bought his album. Jay-Z = mr. miagi, weezy = daniel-son, in other words, wayne cant fuck wit the master.
Jay has been just as succesful as an executive as he has as an artist. He made Rihanna one of the world's biggest pop stars, took Neyo to the top of rnb and made Jeezy a hip hop staple. He don't need 50 and Janet, he should stay getting the youth out there.
worddddd now hov needs to sign saigon!!!!!
Saigon Is Trash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he did sign him 2 roc nation
congrats to jigga for still making big deals. but ya'll hating ass nigga this artical about jigga you fake mu&^(ckas.. theres nothing here about wayne and you still mention weezy name. new york ass niggas ya'll niggas is mad!!!..lmao
That label will get it popping. Lets hope for some good things to happen.
Jay jus won't stop, he gonna get a billion sooner than he think. If he sign 50, or Janet? Thats gonna be a rap simply cuz of their superstar status in collabo wit Jay and Stargate...it all equals money...Learn it.
ReDef.

Man, this reminds me of the Godfather, every ten years or so, they have to get rid of the bad blood, in this case being, umm, what's his name again? Dame Dummy, Dame Diddy, oh right, Dame Dash.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Yo real Talk! U sound so stupid right now! this nigga Jay is the reason people playing with they words n shit fuck outta hea! Everytime Jay dropped a album that shit made standards high for all rappers...........How can you be the best rapper alive and your 1st album is not a CLASSIC? U cant get hot in the middle of your career and then wanna be KING! Nigga Jay's been doing this shit for years paving the way for lil niggas like Lil Wayne...........And let's be real honest will Lil Wayne be hot 10 years from now...........HELL NO! He barely can grasp a originality flow now! And Jay has always made his style Unique.....Although he may have stole shit from BIG his ideas and creativity with music is way beyond Lil Wayne's years..........What other OG nigga is dropping albums right now and actually selling? NOBODY!!!!!!!! All of Jay-Z's albums were hot from Reasonable Doubt - American Gangster you cant say the same for Wayne.......The vocoder shit is played out & niggas aint gonna wanna hear it in the near future.........Bottom Line stop hatin' on Jay just a few years ago that was the only name you could say was hot!
these websites are like Grand Theft Auto, it let niggas live out they gangster dreams and say shit they would neva say 2 a nigga face!!! Half these niggas would jump on jay dick if they saw him in person.
But on topic, great move, hov always makes chess moves now he just need 2 clarify who still on Rocafella, who he still behind and who he trying 2 recruit for the next run. He still Gang Green....... on his own
you niggas need to grow up and stop fighting like lil bitches...
fact: wayne is CURRENTLY making more relevant music in the mainstream.
fact: jayz is making more relevant business decisions to up hit net worth to a 'billie'.
