I'm ready to work and do great things with these guys," says Gemstones Xist Music is rebuilding its roster and Gemstones is part of the new and bright future for the label. "This is an artist I am proud we were able to bring to the team" says T. Black, CEO of Xist Music. "Gemstones is an exceptional talent and we're excited to partner with him."
