Producer and former G-Unit Records President, Sha Money XL, announced this week that he's inked a multi-million music and film distribution deal with leading digital distributor The Orchard for his own Dream Big Ventures.

Dream Big will be making its debut with a notable roster of artists, including DJ Whoo Kid, former Shady/Aftermath recording artist Stat Quo, and New Orleans own Kidd Kidd.

The first project set for release will be the long awaited debut album from Atlanta rapper Stat Quo. Titled Statlanta, the album will feature production from Che Vicious, Hi-Tek, Key Kat Productions and Sha Money XL.

"From the first time I heard Stat Quo, I wanted to work with him," said Sha. "The anticipation for his debut album is still high and I am pleased to be releasing it through my new venture."

According to the G-Unit affiliate, projects from his label will come from three types of artists -- established, in-between labels, and those ready to reach the next level.

"The first three projects coming out of Dream Big are very realistic reflections of the three stages an artist can find them self in," he says.

"We are looking to nurture talent that has the passion to 'dream big' and let the company take them to where they want to be," Sha Money adds.
