Pants on the Ground Record Deal

The 62 year-old Platt became famous last week when he made news headlines with his “lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground” tune, that just about everyone and their cousin is singing around town now.  At the time of his audition, AI judge Simon Cowell quipped that oddly enough he could see the song being a hit.  They even saved the segment for the end of Idol, knowing they had something special there.

As for Larry Platt’s record deal, it appears he’s been offered and undisclosed amount for a deal with Jake Records.  According to their Myspace profile, Jake Records has a few noteworthy artists to its name such as rap group Digital Underground, and one of the members from that group, Shock G, who appeared on the 2PAC song “I Get Around”.  It’s unknown if Platt has been given other offers, but you’d have to think he’s got more than a few phone calls coming in about the song and his signing a deal.  Could be quite the lucrative contract for Mr. Platt.

With the success of the song, Larry Platt’s definitely become a superstar early in the year 2010.  He’s now got his own T-shirt, website, fan sites, appearance on The View, and will probably do a lot more before this year is through.  Expect the Pants on the ground record deal to come within the next few months, and Larry Platt will continue his meteoric rise from one day American Idol contestant, to bigtime star!
