New Orleans rapper B.G. is officially part of Atlantic Records. The former Hot Boy, who has racked up more than 7 million albums sales, signed a multi-album deal Wednesday (April 4) to distribute his Chopper City record label.

The signing concludes months speculation of which label B.G. would call home.

Atlantic representatives refused to comment on the deal. According to reports, Atlanta, Georgia rapper T.I. will executive produce the B.G.'s Atlantic debut.

B.G.'s latest album, The Heart Of Tha Streetz: Vol.2 (I Am What I Am) debuted at number six on The Billboard Top 200 Chart and number one on the Independent Album Charts. The album sold over 63,000 units in the United States according to Nielsen SoundScan.
