Clipse Are Free Agents, According to Malice

Monday, May 21, 2007
By: Kenny Rodriguez


ClipseThe Clipse may be finally free from their contract with Jive Records after years of album delays and label setbacks.

“Right now Clipse are free agents,” group member Malice said during an interview with Toronto publication Eye Weekly. “There are a few labels that are interested.”

Aside from the blurb, it is unknown whether their contract is officially terminated. A Jive representative had no comment about the matter.

The feud between Clipse and their label has been ongoing for several years, prompting Pusha T to tell Rolling Magazine in 2006: “I hate Jive with all my heart and all the passion and my soul.”

He later lamented his choice of words, and explained: “When I say things, I’m speaking from the emotional side of an artist.”

You live and you learn so this was just a wake up call for them to make sure that there business is straight next time . If i were one of them i`d either ride with koch with 6-8 dollares per record or go back to pharell . Either way, there gonna get money

^n*gga, you's a lame, any of those label (especially badboy) would sign clipse, they some hot spittaz and that cannot be denied, you must be one the kids on this site under 21 who believes lil' wayne is the best rapper alive, lol. All in all, i predict that clipse will more than likely just sign with star trak over at interscope and pharrell will definetley make sure interscope hands over that cash for them!

I mean if you you 'hate' something with all your heart i guess the best thing to do is get as far away from that thing as possible you dont need negative vibes around you. As stated earlier it would be an interesting turn of events to see who they sign with-g unit possibly? just a thought.............

Their last cd sucked and needed better beat selection. But that cd with grindin was a classic

Kingjames i agree and disagree with your points. Clipse are awesome, probly one of the best rap groups out right now. Remember, everyone, these were the guys that got kids beatin on desks wit pencils to grindin (tho thats mainly on pharrell). And wamp wamp was the shiz. But i disagree where you say that ppl who dnt like the clipse are ppl that think weezy is the best rapper alive. Cuz i do, and i like the clipse. Ppl up north consider va the south, and i actually do find weezy and clipse to be similar, tho i live in atl, and consider va to be more northern than southern.

These cats need to just give it up. They came in with a strong buzz and that had them thinking they're all that. Then young jeezy came out and made a lot of noise with the snowman and these cats thought, oh snap, we definitely need to be in this. But the game left them behind a long time ago and since they can't get away from pharrell's experimentation beats (check out their wack last single) they're done for.

The clipse showed niguz that the south had clever wordplay..swagger..fashion sense...lyrics and a hustlers spirit...way before jeezy.weezy.ti...or any other n*gga...if you really think about it..the rest of the downsouth niguz was on some country bumpkin sh*t at the time...master p..the a..miami..houston...all of 'em...them 'ginia boys showed 'em how to style so stop hating...and they said that paddycake paddycake sh*t so early...oh yeah..far as that best rapper alive sh*t go...the answer is nas...he's the last one standing...rip big and pac....weezy wanna be better than hov...hov wanna be better than big...and big wanted to be better than nas....do the math..do the research...and ask yourself why pac said nas was the ringleader on that makavelli cd...cuz he is....the last real n*gga alive that's official...one

Rsx, i'm from detroit and consider va to be a more midwest state myself, but i guess they really are southern with northern speech influence. The only similarities between lil' wayne and clipse is the whole bape thing, but that's it, lil' waynes a wannabe. Lil' jon's hair and shades, jay-z's hat and swagg, gillie's rap style pharrell and clipse's clothing line, game's red rag and jim jones skull and chains and tight shirts. He has no idea who dwayne carter is yet, he just does a great imitation of everyone he's influenced by. I can't even begin to disect malice and pusha's true influence, it's almost like they influence each other, malice has the insane lyrics and pusha has the incredible flow and they come together and form voltron on tracks.

Whoever carte blanche says clipse is "wack" is a retard, point blank. Weezy is hot too - but he is a fad. His punchlines hit hard, no doubt, but the majority of his lyrics make absolutely no sense...people who think he is the "best," again, retard. Clipse are seriously two of the top rappers/entertainers out right now...if you disregard them either a) retard (again) or b) you are 12 years old.

The F*ck*n clipse is rap right now. Them n*ggas is saying riddles. Yaw F*ckas scratchin your F*ck*n head like "what he say". Nobody in rap is doing that now. Anybody dissing them dont know rap or is some suburban ass n*gga or whiteboy that F*ck*ng dont no sh*t. I hate message boards because you get Bia'ches talkin sh*t and you dont know sh*t and finally get to express themselves. Shut the F*ck up and learn.
