Be You! f/ Czelena

July 15, 2008

produced by him:

featuring her:

so dig it, back to the hotel room from the “the bridge” story. I played a very very early version of this beat in the hotel for don and il and ilyas felt like it had potential. he said it sounded like some cincinnati cookout shit.

I get back to brooklyn and I’m on the bus when I get inspired to write to this…based on wanting to shout out kip and lafonduh in a rhyme haha…someone on the bus had on a vote for pedro shirt and that’s all it took to set this entire song off. I send my idea to il and don and they build on it. ilyas says he knows a woman he thinks is dope and wants to ask her on the song. the resident r&b thug (just joking) donwill co-writes czelena’s hook and I go back and tweak the beat some more…and that’s that! the bass is extra heavy on this for the trunks. I know nothing about that, I’m on the iron horse* HEAVY.

*subway train.

this is my least favorite believe it or not. I guess I’m just a super backpacker. there isnt much story to this one though….

next: “get me inside” aka “MOFO YOU GON SMELL MY COLOGNE!”

    Y’all need to shoot a vid for this one.

    This song sounds DOPE in the car… It gives the term ‘nigger bass’ a whole new definition, lol.

    *You have to say it with a wasp-y accent, how people sound when they’re complaining about you rolling through the burbs pumping Dr. Dre, lol. Example: “Oh Lord Herb… Here they come down the street with their nigger bass again.” *dishes rattling*
