Ally Brooke's solo endeavors are off to a great start.
The Fifth Harmony member inked a record deal with Latium Entertainment/Atlantic Records, Variety has confirmed Tuesday (August 28).
Brooke had precursed her contract with the Los Angeles-based music company via social media earlier this month, tweeting, "I love you guys thank you my sweet angels we are really gonna do this together 😭 oh and hi @AtlanticRecords @latiumartists." Though the outlet reports she was signed to join Latium's joint venture by founder Charles Chavez this week.
“We are beyond excited about Ally Brooke coming to our family," Chavez told Variety. "She has a global fan base, an amazing voice and to top it all off is a fellow Texan.”
The 25-year-old powerhouse celebrated the announcement with an emotional message posted to Twitter.

“There are no words to describe how happy I am to be with Atlantic Records/Latium Artists. It is a real dream come true," she said in a statement. "I am extremely thankful to have a label and team who fiercely believe in me and my vision. It is the greatest gift you can ask for as an artist. I can’t wait to share our art with the world!”
Following 5H's indefinite hiatus announcement in March, the "Worth It" star has appeared as a featured artist on tracks like DJ Topic's "Perfect" and Lost Kings' "Look At Us Now."
Since the group took their break, other members have found similar success as a standalone act. In January, Camila Cabello, who exited the group in 2017, released her debut self-titled album via Syco/Epic Records, which spawned her a number one hit with "Havana." Normani signed with Keep Cool/RCA in April and dropped the summer banger "Love Lies" with Khalid, Lauren Jauregui has featured on three collabs, including Halsey's synthy, '80s-inspired "Strangers," and Dinah Jane recently bagged a deal with L.A. Reid's Hitco last week.
Brooke is to release her debut single as a solo artist this fall.
