Example signs US deal with Mercury Records

After a massive 2011, which saw Example have two no.1 singles and a no.1 album, he today announced that he has signed a US deal with Mercury Records. With the fourth album well under way, this is the perfect time for the Fulham-born singer/rapper to try and take over the States. Statement from the man himself after the jump. Extremely proud moment.

“I’m pleased to have signed to a major label like Mercury/Universal in the US. It was important to me to sign with someone who understands not only my ambitions but also the way I work. I want to do it on my own terms, I enjoy a good challenge and can’t wait to get started.”
