record label today announced that paperwork has been signed and that there is now
a confirmed joint partnership between EME and Konvict music.

beneficiary of the arrangement, the deal also makes provision for EME to launch
any of its follow up acts on the same platform

will run the African arm
of Konvict’s operation including offices, management, studios, A&R,
production and provisions of more artistes to launch under this partnership”

act to be launched under this agreement, but EME will continue to build acts
that achieve enough buzz to also launch on the same platform”
Since debuting in 2008, Empire Mates Entertainment has
revolutionized a fast rising industry by crafting songs that people identify
