In spite of his plans to bring The Inc out of the relevancy grave, Irv Gotti is seeing another one of his artists asking to be let out of their obligations to the label.
Although proven to be The Inc's most loyal artist, R&B singer Lloyd has decided to part ways with his home for the past five years.
"I'm ready for a change," he said in a press release. "There's no bad blood. I just feel I need to take more control over my career and get a fresh start. Hopefully Irv can understand my position."
Lloyd's decision comes in sharp contrast to the image portrayed on Gotti's VH1 reality show, which the singer has been featured on.
A seperate statement released by Lloyd's manager went into detail about the singer's motivation to leave saying, "We find ourselves in limbo for the second time in three years. It's frustrating to know that opportunities to advance Lloyd's career are out there but we can't exploit them due to our current situation. Even though Lloyd is very appreciative of the opportunity that has been afforded him by the Inc, he feels it's time for him to move on and seek opportunities that will allow him to build and enhance his brand."
Despite his situation, Lloyd is said to be working on his fourth album.
As of now, Gotti had issued no statement on Lloyd's decision to leave the label.
