Today Paul Rosenberg, head of Shady Records and manager of Eminem, made a brief statement regarding Obie’s departure following the news we broke a few days ago.
“Shady Records has agreed to allow Obie Trice to pursue his craft in a different forum free from the constraints of the current major label model,” though “Eminem will continue to support and work with Obie on many levels of his career,” and “He remains a close friend and member of the Shady family.”
It appears that Obie still has a healthy relationship with Eminem and the Shady camp; he just wants complete artistic freedom, which is understandable, given that artists such as Stat Quo still have not been allowed to release their album.
