UPDATE: TDE CEO Anthony Tiffith has denounced rumors that Kembe X has signed to TDE. For now, he seems to be just a "friend of the family." "When I signed something new I will let y'all know," he told his followers. Tiffith also tweeted another parody version of ScHoolboy Q's Blank Face album cover.

There have recently been some rumors floating around that Chicago rapper Kembe X had signed with TDE, the label which hosts Kendrick Lamar, ScHoolboy Q and the rest of the Black Hippy family. This weekend, he's dropped a major hint that the rumors are true, sharing a photo of himself wearing a Top Dawg chain on Twitter.
So far, there's no official confirmation of the signing, but it would certainly be a strange move for Kembe to drop this kind of hint without actually signing with the prestigious label. Surely, we should hear some more news soon enough, but for now you can take a look at his tweets below.
Earlier this year, Top Dawg shared an update on upcoming releases, revealing two "Jon Doe" projects in the works. It was later revealed that Lance Skiiwalker was one of these two new signees, so it's definitely possible Kembe is the other mystery artist.
