Finally in 2009 Busta was successful in signing him to Conglomerate Records with a better offer. Since then, Reek released a plethora of records, including Go Off featuring Kendrick Lamar, Ace Hood and Swizz Beatz. Reek explains that the record was ready to be released along with a video to accompany the single but for some reason Busta delayed the record from being released for about two years.

Then I was told that the Top Dawg dudes wanted it down, but from certain people I spoke to said just take it off of YouTube, it can live on Worldstar, but the calls were consistently coming from the Conglomerate department and thats why I was a little bitter about the situation, cause I just was like, if the TDE dudes aren’t going hard to get it removed , I wouldn’t expect Busta to be going that hard to get it taken down you know what I’m saying?”
