It was only a matter of time ’til 2 Chainz signed with a major label. That time has officially come. (pause?) He confirmed to XXL that he left DTP, and is now part of the Def Jam family.

“It’s the Real University, Two Gun Gang, Street Executives. It’s not DTP no more. I’m actually behind [Ludacris], he’s still my homie. I just took another route as far as running my own company and bossing up. But on the other hand, I’m still working with him. He has an album coming out this year, as well. Matter of fact, we are label mates, now, which is crazy. So, yeah, that’ll be cool. I’m looking forward to that.”

It must be signing season ‘cuz Def Jam has been signing artists left and right.
