Overview
Jay-Z has signed X Factor contestant Cher Lloyd to his Roc Nation label, it has been reported.
The rapper offered the singer a record contract after she impressed him on the X Factor, The Sun reports.
Lloyd had previously been in talks with Black Eyed Peas frontman Will.i.am to join his record label after the pair performed on the X Factor final together.
''Even though Cher didn't do terrifically well in the X Factor finals, there's been a hell of a lot of interest in her. Will.i.am's backing only intensified the battle to get her signature,'' a source told The Sun.
Adding:"After weighing up the pros and cons, it was thought that the team at Roc Nation would be best placed to turn her dreams of stardom into a reality."
Meanwhile, Dr Dre has teamed up with Eminem, Jay-Z and 50 Cent on a new song.
