     *After its acquisition of TVT Records, digital musical and entertainment company, The Orchard, has entered into a new comprehensive pact with former TVT artist Lil Jon.

      As part of the deal, The Orchard will digitally reissue Lil Jon’s back catalogue (which it now owns through the TVT acquisition), including "Put Yo Hood Up," "Kings of Crunk" and 2004’s "Crunk Juice."

       Lil Jon will provide new content under the arrangement, and is expected to lend his expertise to Orchard’s Brand Entertainment group, working with brands and agencies to develop innovative new lifestyle-oriented marketing and promotion programs. In addition, Lil Jon and The Orchard will collaborate on selecting A&R and production support to Orchard artists and labels.      

       As a part of the accord, Lil Jon has withdrawn his multi-million-dollar objection to the TVT sale proceedings, and agreed to TVT’s transfer of his artist recording agreement to The Orchard. The Orchard has in turn, released Jon from all future obligations under his previous TVT contract and agreed that Lil Jon owns all rights in the master recordings for his forthcoming album “Crunk Rock.”
