For years, Joell Ortiz has been an independent artist. At one point, he was signed to Aftermath Entertainment, but he left because he was a backburner artist.br /br /Because of his experience with Aftermath, Joell Ortiz was weary about signing to a major label. While the Dr. Dre experience did not work out for Ortiz, his experience with Dre protege, Eminem, has changed his mind. Currently, Joell Ortiz is looking for a label to sign to.br /br /So far, Eminem has done good by Slaughterhouse and if he continues, Joell Ortiz may consider signing a solo deal. He likes the fact that Eminem is not interfering with Slaughterhouse as they record their new album. In 2009, they released their debut album through E1 and maintained full creative control. Eminem is allowing them to record just as free on their major label debut.br /br /When signing to a label, Joell Ortiz wants to pick a label who truly believes in him. Eminem gives him a feeling of security and this may lead to Ortiz making a deal with Shady Records.div class=”blogger-post-footer”div class=”separator” style=”clear: both; text-align: center;”
