Dilated Peoples - also known as Evidence, Rakaa Iriscience and DJ Babu - took a break during a recent show to announce they have signed with Rhymesayers Entertainment. Rakaa and Evidence peeled back a banner revealing their triumvirate of logos - Dilated's flanked by Expansion Team and Rhymesayers to the right and left - demonstrating the newest phase of their career. The group released their last four major projects on Capitol Records. They are the latest to join a deep bench of artists already signed to Rhymesayers including MF Doom, Atmosphere, Freeway, Jake One, Brother Ali and Aesop Rock. Dilated is prepping their latest LP Directors of Photography for release with the label - their first since 20/20 dropped in 2006.
