Chicago, Illinois-based emcee Gemstones has signed to respected record label Xist Music. Gemstones f/k/a Gemini was once a part of Lupe Fiasco’s 1st and 15th Entertainment.

Xist Music is an imprint that has been the home of heavy hitting CHH artists like GRAMMY-nominated lyricist Da T.R.U.T.H. and The Ambassador. They recently partnered up with Malco Music Group and are in the process of a full label re-branding. The addition of Gemstone is a significant move.

“This is an artist I am proud we were able to bring to the team” says T. Black, CEO of Xist Music in a recent press release. “Gemstones is an exceptional talent and we’re excited to partner with him.”

Stones has appeared on major networks like MTV, toured the world, and collaborated with the likes of Drake, Lupe Fiasco, and Jay-Z. He is currently working on his Blind Elephant album and a mixtape according to past news stories. GRAMMY award-winning producer J.R. will be crafting records for the forthcoming mixtape.
