Will XV get signed before 2010? Of course he will! After releasing one of the most anticipated mixtapes of 2009 "Everybody's Nobody", and receiving 2500 downloads in under 12 hours, he has proven to all his critics that he is one of the best unsigned in the world. Not just in Kansas… in the world. Not just is America… in the world.

His new management team, Noizy Cricket, has all of the connections and promotional power that XV will need in order to create a record label bidding war. XV recently stated on his twitter that he got a call from Interscope Records (the record label that signed Noizy Cricket's other artist, Charles Hamilton), and in his recent interview with Karen Civil he mentioned that he's been getting a lot of support from record label executives. He's been featured on Hot 97, A-List Radio… heck, the college radio stations are still spinning tracks from his previous album "Complex", which I promoted for him back in 2007. He's now a featured artist on myspace music, and he'll most likely be on the cover of XXL's 10 freshmen of 2010 magazine in a few months. He is absolutely bound to get picked up by a major label, (most likely from the Universal Music Group family, unless he gets an offer from Roc Nation.). If XV isn't signed by 2010, I'll change my name to Mary Poppins.
