The singer in January scored his third (3rd) number one with the hit single ‘Pedal’ on the CVM-TV’s Hit-List Reggae Chart and delivered a triad of exuberant performances at Rebel Salute, Twickenham Park Police Academy and the heavily publicized Magnum Kings & Queens of Dancehall aired live on Television Jamaica (TVJ).

As the culmination of February draws close, Yard A Love the artiste’s management company has wrapped talks with international business interest and will be unveiling a major announcement this week. Speaking with his team the revelation was made the singer has inked a two year major distribution deal with U.S based company New Millionaire Entertainment (NME) out of Delaware.

The deal will see New Millionaire Entertainment becoming the exclusive agent handling both digital and physical distribution for Teflon along with his marketing throughout the world for downloadable, mobile and video contents. The dissemination will be done in conjunction with Universal Records.

In a statement to the media NME Vice President - Dave Grant says, "We are very selective about who we decide to become distributors for. However finalizing this deal with Teflon and his Team was the right move. Teflon brings a very positive energy and message to his music and as such we look forward to delivering his positive vibe on an International level."

Adding their own perspective Teflon’s Management stated, “This just goes to show that hard work does pay off and with this partnership Teflon’s music will be shared on all major music platforms worldwide. This is another major step for the Reggae and Dancehall genre.”

In the past the group has worked with an assemblage of musical heavyweights such as Rick Ross, Young Money Cash Money, Freeway, Omillio Sparks, Trina, Tyga, Trey Songz, Jim Jones, Selah and Jamaican’s very own Bounty Killer, Buju Banton, Vybz Kartel, Mavado and Maxi Priest among others.
