Pittsburgh rapper Mac Miller has signed a deal with Warner Bros. Records, which is reportedly worth $10 million, Fader reports. In celebration of this deal, Miller has shared a new song through his Soundcloud page called "Just Some Raps, Nothing to See Here, Move Along," which you can check out below.
Prior to signing with Warner, Miller's albums and mixtapes were either self-released or released through Pittsburgh-based indie label Rostrum, which was also home to fellow Pittsburgh rapper Wiz Khalifa. In early 2013, Miller started his own label, Remember Music, which has now become an imprint of Warner Bros. through this new deal. Miller will also be able to sign and develop new artists, whose albums will be released under Remember/Warner Bros.
"Warner is the most independent thinking company I met with," Miller told Fader in an email about his new record deal. "It is a partnership and now I can focus on building my label Remember through music and let them handle everything I don't like doing. Nothing will change in how I do things."
Miller seems to have been in search of a major label deal all year, as he left Rostrum Records back in January, though he insisted that Rostrum was his "family."
Miller's most recent studio album, Watching Movies with the Sound Off, was released back in June 2013, which was his second overall. His most recent mixtape, Faces, his 11th overall, was released through Remember Music in May.
