Lil Pump
It looks like Gucci Mane isn't the only one in the race to sign Lil Pump. As Pump basks in the glory of his breakout hit "Gucci Gang," hip-hop mogul DJ Khaled seems to have entered the race as well, after posting a series of photos on Instagram of him and Lil Pump in a meeting, hinting that he may be close to singing the rising rapper to his label.
"MOGUL TALK!! STILL IN THE MEETING !!!! I TOLD MY LAWYER THIS IS URGENT !! Let’s get this deal done," he captioned a photo of him and Pump. The subsequent photos show Khaled and Pump, as well as Pump's team, in a meeting that appears to be hosted at the We The Best head honcho's Miami home.
Earlier this month, it was reported that Pump's contract with Warner Bros. was voided because the rapper was a minor when he initially signed the contract. Gucci Mane jumped on the opportunity and went directly to the rapper's Instagram comment section to show interest. "1017 you name the price," Gucci wrote, in an attempt to offer Pump a spot on his 1017 Eskimo Records.
Pump would be a welcome addition to either roster, as his viral single "Gucci Gang" shot to No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and has already amassed over 400 million views on YouTube.
