1995 – check.
Ice Cube – check.
If you haven’t picked up on it yet, I have scored and am producing a hip-hop track (yes, hip-hop) on the MsP collaboration album Roll Call ’10. It has the flavor of an old-school, mid-’90′s, West Coast track. It’s not really a “Gangsta” track, though the theme for the song will be gang related, but only to a degree.
We don’t really want to give away too much on the content of the song but what we can tell you is that it will not be POV – the lyrics will be from 2 bystanders/observers. The track WILL play on your state of mind and you WILL feel like you just watched some psychological drama. Beyond that, you’ll have to wait and see.
Last night (4.4.10/Easter Sunday) MooN ShynE and I discussed how this track should progress and we came up with some interesting ideas as far as the “theme” of the song.
This track will feature:
MooN ShynE – vocals / mixing / mastering / arrangement
K-Maculate – vocals
ADM – producer / composer / storyline (partial)
I would appreciate MooN ShynE’s input on this as well…
That’s it for now………

This is going to be quite deep, we’re going to mess with peoples’ heads on this one. Melodically and somewhat rhythmically it sounds like mid 90′s west, but the feel is wu-tang circa 94, somewhat like the ODB song Snakes. This is going to be a lot of fun.
