Bobby Valentino Inks Major Label Deal with EMI for Imprint, Blu Kolla Dreams Atlanta, GA: July 17, 2008-Platinum selling R&B recording artist, Bobby Valentino, signs a major label deal with EMI for his own imprint, Blu Kolla Dreams, just 3 short months after being dropped from Def Jam Recordings and leaving Disturbing Tha Peace Records (DTP). Blu Kolla Dreams is "the start of a new business venture for anyone who has taken the Blu Kolla approach and worked extremely hard over time to make an impact in their communities, achieve greatness and make their dreams come true," as stated by Courtney "Colt Luv" Stewart of RIGHT HAND MANagement (Bobby V's Manager)/Co-CEO of Blu Kolla Dreams. Bobby V fans can expect a powerful new album titled, The Rebirth, to be released in the coming months. Valentino reveals his thoughts on the new venture by stating, "I have been blessed to be in the music industry for over 10 years, and my past endeavors have been great learning experiences. Now I have the opportunity to step out on faith and use the knowledge and experience that I have gained to take my career to the next level." Bobby V maintained a presence in music over the last few months by releasing an iTunes EP titled "Come with Me," a collaborative effort with producer Bill Jabar. According to Bobby, "Come with Me is an exclusive online release with innovative material created specifically for my true fans." He promoted the album through MySpace, and online retailers including Stayondeck.com and iTunes.com. He has remained relevant as a featured artist for hip hop superstar Lil Wayne's The Carter 3 album on the summer smash single "Mrs. Officer." Bobby V can even be heard on several mixtapes with his appearance on Yung Joc's latest ladies anthem "Tonight." Also, his international fan base has grown exponentially with several tours in the UK, Germany, Japan and Dubai. As a near veteran of the music industry, Bobby Valentino has been signed since the age of 13 as a member of the now defunct group Mista, most known for hit single "Blackberry Molasses," and as a solo artist on the DTP/Def Jam imprint with albums Bobby Valentino and Special Occasion. Bobby V's debut album self-titled Bobby Valentino is certified platinum and peaked at No. 3 on Billboard. The sophomore effort Special Occasion is certified Gold. Although Bobby Valentino has severed his ties with DTP Records he still maintains positive relationships with CEO's Chaka Zulu, Ludacris and the DTP/Def Jam staff.
