Troubled Rapper, Chief Keef Reportedly Dropped From
Interscope Records
Chief Keef is no longer a part of the Interscope Records
roster, according to reports on AllHipHop and this was due to Keef's recent string of legal cases .
The website notes Chief Keef’s legal cases in 2013 and 2014
as reasons why the Chicago-native is no longer with Interscope.
“Earlier this year, matters began to sour with Chief Keef,
his camp and the bosses at Interscope,” AllHipHop reports. “Our source
maintains Interscope began to ‘subtly disassociate’ itself from the 19-year-old
rapper after he had a series of legal cases sprout up in 2013 and 2014, ranging
from lawsuits to drug offenses… A March 2014 shoot out in Chicago, which
authorities linked Keef to, allegedly further damaged the relationship with
Interscope.
“Keef and his people tried to keep the label accountable (once
Keef moved to Los Angeles) but Interscope didn’t seem interested in dropping a
new album,” continues the report. “Keef’s team tried to have formal meetings
but nothing moved… Insiders say friction intensified until there were arguments
with higher-ups in Interscope over how Keef’s career was being handled. Shortly
thereafter, Keef was quietly released from his contract.”
