May 1, 2009
Sugababes Sign To Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella LabelJay-Z has signed Sugababes to his label Roc-A-Fella Records, the first British pop act to be associated with the imprint.

The trio are currently working on their seventh album and penned the new deal during a meeting with the legendary rapper in London last month.

Last week, Sugababes revealed via their Twitter account that they would be working with Lady Gaga's producer RedOne.

According to the group's official website they have booked recording sessions in Miami and Los Angeles and are planning to work with producers who have previously collaborated with Beyonce and Rihanna.

Previous signings to Jay-z's label include Kanye West and Jadakiss.
