(1888PressRelease) January 19, 2012 - Los Angeles, CA - Stampede Management, a premiere talent and brand management company, is excited to announce the signing of hip-hop star, Mystikal, and rising artist, YG, to their robust artist roster. Stampede Management will be overseeing all brand partnerships, artist relations and music development for Mystikal and YG.

Mystikal also recently announced he signed with Brian "Birdman" Williams and Ronald "Slim" Williams' Cash Money Records for a record deal. He joins label mates Nicki Minaj, Drake, Lil' Wayne, Busta Rhymes, Tyga and more. Recently, Mystikal premiered his first song with the Cash Money team, Original, featuring Birdman and Lil' Wayne on Hot 97 in NY on Funkmaster Flex and his hometown station, Q93 in New Orleans.

Mystikal is currently in the studio working on his upcoming album with the new label set to drop Spring 2012. He also just wrapped on Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa's upcoming movie, Mac and Devin Go To High School, where he was the voice of "Slow Burn", a special friend of Mac and Devin's.

Mystikal is a hometown hero in New Orleans, and says to his fans "I'm proud to be part of a team with a legacy that began in the south and is now a world movement. The music we're making is crazy!"

"We are very excited to represent Mystikal & YG's dynamic artistry and creative visions," said Russell Redeaux, Senior Partner of Stampede Management. "We plan to utilize our unique brand building techniques to support the YMCMB team and the Def Jam team to take Mystikal & YG's career to global success."

Rising star, YG, has gained national recognition with his hit records, "Toot It and Boot It," "B*tches Ain't Shit," and Up". He has transitioned from a popular street rapper from Compton, CA to becoming a certified hit maker and a leader of his movement "Pushaz Ink" with an aura and a sound reminiscent of the 1900's label, Death Row. YG is currently signed to Def Jam and is focused on building out his own brand and label, Pushaz Ink. He is working on his next album, set to come out Spring 2012.

As YG gears up for a big 2012, he says "This is going to be a big year for me, so I'm glad I have a solid team around me."
