Should This Kid Be the Next Young Money Signee? [360]

Call us crazy, but 15-year old ACE Primo has a swag that reminds us of YMCMB…

At first glance, ACE Primo can be mistaken for a young-looking Lil Wayne. They both share a Southern swag thanks to his North Carolina upbringing. And, similar to the back-in-the-day Weezy, he’s got the long-hair-don’t-care braids. But, most importantly, it’s the teen’s talent which has attracted the likes of Geechi Suede of Camp Lo who gave him his first shot in the studio.

The 15-year-old, who started actively pursuing rap in 2007, caught the attention of super-producer Rodney Jerkins who ultimately signed the teen MC to Dark Child Records. Just because ACE is signed doesn’t mean that Young Money can’t partner up with Dark Child and scoop the young spitter. Considering the Charlotte native’s delivery, style, and flow reminded us a bit of Young Money’s general, it seems he could fit into the YM family easily.

At the moment there doesn’t seem to be any Young Money/Cash Money affiliation, but bheck out Ace Primo’s videos and let us know what you think. Should ACE Primo be Young Money’s next signee? Share your thoughts in the comment section. —Nicole LoPresti

    Young Money/Cash Money would be the perfect home for him, unfortunately Wayne always has a group of youngn’s he’s looking after so the move might be cool publicity wise, but he may not get any shine there. I’d say take him to Jermain Dupri, JD knows how to work with youngsters and his roster isn’t ridiculously full at the moment.

    could it be wayne has a new ghost writer? Seriously though folks this kid is nice. The only question is which way will young money stir him? Uber pop/thug to be the next in line for the weezy throne or will he be in label purgatory with J millz,J cole,J electronica(damn shit ain’t looking good for cats not named Jay-z) or tyga.

    He’s definitely nothing special…

    Has nothing unique about him whatsoever.
