"Jay Z's multivalent entertainment company Roc Nation and the UK and US-based management company Three Six Group (home to Calvin Harris, Deadmau5 andFrank Ocean) have announced the formation of Three Six Zero Entertainment, a new full-service management company that will focus on representing actors, directors and writers in the film, television and digital industries. The company will be offering branding and financial services to clients as well.
Three Six Zero Entertainment has named David Unger, previously of Resolution before becoming a free agent, to lead the new company alongside Three Six Zero CEO Mark Gillespie. The pair will act as co-CEOs.
"We will now expand to meet the need for international talent in the areas of film and television," said Unger in a statement. Added Gillespie: "The phenomenal growth and cross-over from international territories and ancillary businesses has transformed the way we service our clients globally.
It is a natural fit for us to partner with David."
"Mark and Dean and the Three Six Zero family have achieved tremendous success in music and now Three Six Zero Entertainment will expand their potential in film and television," said Roc Nation CEO and co-founder Jay Brown.
The launch is Jay Z's major move into the wider entertainment world following the success of Roc Nation and the still-nascent Roc Nation Sports.
The choice to use Three Six Zero's name was due in part to the association of Roc Nation with the music industry, a source close to the deal tells Billboard, as Three Six Zero is seen as relatively neutral territory. Jay Z will bring, alongside Jay Brown, his considerable leverage in the music world to bear on Hollywood. Much the same for Three Six Zero, whose client Calvin Harris has been the face of Armani as well as featured (as an "evil DJ") in a prominent cameo in the forthcoming Entouragefilm.
The announcement comes just a few weeks after Jay Z's accepted bid for Aspiroand its subsidiary streaming companies, WiMP and Tidal. The ambition fo Shawn Carter seems to know no bounds -- and so far, it's served him quite well."
So, here's my opinion!
LMAO!
I hope Jay z is gonna do the smart thing and release some TV. shows, movies etc. talking that 5%, Hebrew, Moorish shit, or at least something with substance in general!
Otherwise, this will be a bust!
We need knowledge right now! His people have the internet, and so many are using it to fight, argue, fuck, and look for the next fight, argument and ass to fuck!
So, as long as Hov (Jay) is looking to expand minds, I support his efforts!
But it looks like all of these other people mentioned are Caucasians!
I mean, he couldn't find any brown folks to work with?
I have to ask because, Damon Dash, Kanye West and QTip are partnering up to do movies.
Hmm, I wonder if this is some sort of competitive thing between the former friends and former business partners. Who knows? All I know is, I will have to see how entertaining and informative his efforts are before I will judge it!
Hey Uncle Hov, need a writer, actor, and voice over actor? I do a mean Marge Simpson impression!
My Jay z impression is alright too! Let me know Jay! Just let me know! IT'S THE ROC!
Let me know what you think about it all below!
