The breakout sensation from Toronto, Drake, signed his name on the dotted line once again. Drake officially signed with ICM Management yesterday. The company will handle all his tour dates and branding. The newest Young Money affiliate is in good company with ICM who also represents Beyonce, Halle Berry, Idris ELba and Katt “No I’m Not Broke” Williams.

Before teaming up with the management company, the 22-year old rapper was reported to be in the middle of an all out bidding war between labels, Atlantic and Universal in particular, before sticking to the “home team” of Young Money who he’s been affiliated with for several years. Universal was still included in the signing however, with Universal Republic handling the distribution. He was initially introduced to the Young Money lineup that includes Nicki Minaj, Mack Maine and Jae Millz via Lil Wayne who founded the label. After meeting Drake and collaborating on his song “Man of The Year” in 2007, the two have been tight ever since.

In their latest collaboration, the dynamic duo who calls themselves, Young Angel and Young Lion, is teaming up for the America’s Most Wanted Music Festival. Young Jeezy, Jeremih, Pleasure P, and Twitter fanatic, Soulja Boy, are also a part of the tour which kicks off July 27 in Scranton, PA.
