The real X Factor: 50 Cent signs Gamu Nhengu to G-Note label

American rapper 50 Cent has signed the lovely Gamu Nhengu to his record label, G-Note.

Gamu shot to fame on the recent X Factor series, in which she quickly became a fan favourite but found herself at the centre of a huge furore after Cheryl Cole failed to choose her for the live shows.

G-Note Records is a subsidiary record label of 50 Cent’s ever expanding G-Unit Records. The label was formed in late 2010 for Pop, Dance and R&B artists and a statement on their website today revealed that they renamed Gamu ‘Miss Gamucharai’. It read:

  “Miss Gamuchirai has been singed to 50 Cent’s new record label, G-Note!”

Adding: “G-Note will focus on 50′s favourite acts that don’t fit neatly into G-Unit’s hip-hop categorisation and will favour pop and R&B artists.”

The website also claimed that Fiddy has been interested in signing the Zimbabwean singer since he first saw her X Factor audition, but had to wait for her to be released from her show contract before signing her to his label.

Microblogbuzz.com added: “It is believed that many labels have been interested in signing Gamu but G-Note offered the best deal and are best connected to make her dreams reality.”
