News <p>Signing to any label doesn't make you the hottest artist or prove that you're working hard. It just means you can catch the eyes of executives. The question is how do you capitalize off your signing to make sure you'll eventually drop an album? Bei Maejor had the right answer. Aside from his production, Bei is signed to Jive and recently dropped his Upside Down free album. Twelve records spanning features from big names (T-Pain, Keri Hilson, Trey Songz, etc.) as well as matching production, mostly by himself, Maejor succeeded in doing what he set out to do.
