Gucci Mane Leaves So Icey Entertainment For Brick Squad 1017

Gucci Mane finalizes his new imprint with new management, after leaving his former label, manager and booking agency.

Today, it was formally announced that Gucci Mane will be President and CEO of Brick Squad 1017 Records. The imprint, through Warner Brothers/Aslyum, is home to Wacka Flocka Flame, OJ Da Juiceman and Brick Squad, a super-group of the trio (including Gucci).

This move marks the end of a relationship Gucci Mane has had with label, So Icey Entertainment, former management Mizay Entertainment and booking agent Hitt Afta Hitt Enterprises. The Atlanta rapper and his imprint will now be exclusively handled by First Avenue Management, with new business manager David Bolno, Managing Director at Nigro, Karlin, Segal, & Feldstein and top entertainment law firm Davis Shapiro Lewit & Hayes, LLP.

There had been several reports of illegally sold Gucci Mane verses as well as unfulfilled show bookings in the past year, perhaps a catalyst for the change.

"The rest of 2010 is going to be real major," said Gucci Mane in a statement. "I'm taking control of all of my business properties and keeping the focus on my career, my music and my artists. All the pieces to the puzzle are finally in place and once I get home it's Gucci time."

Gucci Mane's next appeal, The Appeal, is planned for late 2010 release.

  • 1017fan:

    well damn all these haters not only hate on the rappers but the people that listen. i will admit that they try to influence people too much, but 100% of the blame is not with them. no one told the kids to listen to gucci. there is a reason why you don't here him on the radio and he is a popular rapper. so all you haters can just get a life, grow up, and stop hating. if you don't like gucci then don't listen to him, and ESPECIALLY don't hate on the people that listen to him just because they listen to him. that is stupid

    • 1017fan:

      P.S I fucking know they can't rhyme good! their music gets me pumped without me being temped to shoot the guy next to me, their flow isn't the worse in the world, and their beats are the shizz. rhyme isn't 100% of rap even though it is a good portion

    • Dre Guevara:

      4 whatever reason, Gucci & this Wacka Flocka fellow is in heavy rotation here in the Chi.

    • that dude manny:
