Sho Baraka Announces Departure From Reach Records

Yesterday, hip hop artist Sho Baraka announced on his blog at LionsandLiars.com that he has decided to part ways with Reach Records. Below is his statement to the fans:

"Around this time, one year ago, I released my second album Lions and Liars under Reach Records. Four years ago, I officially became an artist on the label, although my friendship with all the artists and staff predates that time. Today, I bring news that is exciting, yet surprising and full of uncertainty.

I will no longer be an artist on the Reach Records label. It’s been a wonderful four years doing business with the Reach organization, and it’s also been a pleasure to communicate the center of our joy via Hip Hop. Through the years I have established friendships that will last a lifetime, both Reach Records artists and staff.

I would like to extend my utmost gratitude to all who support my music and the other artists at Reach. I trust that the LORD will establish my plans as I commit my work to him.

It would be imprudent of me to think that this post would not bring speculation as well as gossip. I would encourage the reader to not pull out assumptions or exaggerations. That being said, here are a couple of things I would like to communicate:

* I will still be an artist with Reach Booking (www.reachbooking.com) and travel on certain group dates w/ other Reach artist thru 2011.
* I will continue to do concert dates and events thru 2011.
* I will be featured on Reach projects that will be released in 2011.
* If you have any desire to stay afloat with some of my dealings go to www.thisishigh.com.

The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.

Grace and Peace,

Amisho Baraka L."
