Forever (Ft. Eminem, Kanye West & Lil Wayne) (Prod. Boi-1da) – Drake [Final Mastered Version]

The generous folks of OctobersVeryOwn saw how much buzz this track was getting and decided to drop the FINAL mastered CDQ for the track with a line-up of heavy-weights that’re just unmatched in hip hop right now in terms of popularity. I know Morph will appreciate this, as he’s been bumping it non stop since it dropped.

Prom Queen (The Re-Fix) – J.A.M.E.S. WATTS

He missed out last week, but J.A.M.E.S is back with another re-fix, this time Lil Wayne’s Prom Queen gets the treatment…

I figured it’d be best to drop something off this week that was a little different, something that was special; in that spirit, I decided to re-fix Lil Wayne’s “Prom Queen”, one of the most polarizing songs of the last year — no middle ground, you either loved it or you hated it (I, for one, enjoyed it).

Nonetheless, I took the debut rock song from Baby’s son and furthered its concept by exploring the struggle of a young man seeking the affections of a girl who is far out of his reach. No need for further explanation, just take a listen — this may be J.A.M.E.S. like you have never heard me before.

Also, in lieu of my absence last week, I am throwing in a bonus demo mp3 for my listeners; tentatively titled People Feel Better, this was just a little something I came up with during a late night writing session. Dusty sample x no real mixing + heartfelt lyrics = my essence.

I Know Your Name (Ft. Travis McCoy & Lil Wayne) – Alchemist [Tagless]

The other day, this track featuring Travie (of GCH) and Wayne dropped with massive tags, thanks to Buck Marley (shouts) but Karen Civil comes through with the tagless version for us to enjoy. This track is one that got left on the cutting room floor which says alot about ALC, dude is all about quality.

Vodpod videos no longer available.

This is amazing to me, Jonathan Mannion is one of those guys in Hip Hop that are so essential without you even knowing it. Dude has taking alot of shots of monumental hip hop moments including Hov w/ the Blue Bentley for the Hard Knock Life album shoot (above), B.I.G. tearing down the Hollywood Palladium (under the cut) and much more… Continue reading

Take You Down Freestyle – Drake

Shouts go to OctsVeryOwn for the following…

This is a reference track that I did for Wayne. It was gonna be on Dedication 3. Needless to say it never made the mixtape but now you understand the point of view that I was writing from.

… and here we’re thinking Drake doesn’t write for Wayne… Haha. CANADA STAND UP!!
