Los resigns to Diddy’s Bad Boy Records after initially signing to Bad Boy through local label Bloc Incorporated in 1995. Congrats to Los on the new deal.
“It’s time for a whole new generation; it’s time for a whole new movement. So we got Machine Gun Kelly, French Montana, Red Cafe; we got Cassie. We also have a new artist named Los that we signed. It’s official. We’re trying to put that young, youthful energy out in the air and do it the only way that Bad Boy can do it.”

Cory Gunz Speaks On Arrest
Mr. Gunz was jailed on Saturday after getting caught with an unregistered .9mm handgun in his backpack, while in the Bronx. Corey was charged with criminal possession of a loaded firearm. He was released Sunday night on $30,000 bail. If convicted he’ll serve a mandatory minimum 3 1/2 years in jail. Cory Gunz spoke about the arrest to the NYDailyNews. Here’s what he had to say.
“This was a big mistake on my part. I didn’t have any intentions of harming anyone or committing a criminal activity. So many young people look up to me and I need to fight though this. It’s been really hard, really stressful. When the smoke finally clears people will understand what was going on.”
Peter Gunz also chimes in.
“He just got out of a cab and police ran up on him and they were in plainclothes, he didn’t know they were cops. He thought he was getting robbed. I was pretty sad seeing my son in handcuffs and sitting in a cell. Never in a million years would I think that he would have a gun.”
