We’re big fans of both these guys. I think Ryan has a great sound that really compliments Ross’ style. This collaboration happened too late for the song to appear on Deeper Than Rap, look out for “Maybachs + Diamonds” on a future album from either Leslie or Ross.

Do you Twitter? Then you are more interested in sex than the average Facebook, MySpace or LinkedIn user. Like LinkedIn? You’re more likely to watch soap operas. Favor MySpace? You’re probably not into exercise.

What took so long for Diamond D to drop another video? His album came out at the end of ‘08…Anyways, here’s a video for “It’ll Be Alright” featuring Novel, off Huge Hefner Chronicles.
I think the song is alright, but I think they should make a video for “Baby”.

Since 1991’s Grand Upright Music Ltd. vs. Warner Bros. case (a.k.a. Biz Markie vs. Gilbert O’Sullivan), most non-Puff Daddy producers have been wary of sampling well-known source material. Because of inherently prohibitive clearance costs, a litigious industry climate and the obvious notoriety of his catalog, the Michael Jackson songbook has been raided less than those of many of his peers.

That’s good enough for me… (+ I’m a Red Cafe fan).

In late 2007, I got a chance to check out Adam Freeland’s newest project, Freeland, as it was coming together. He was still recording a majority of the tracks and had yet to mix and master them. He was most proud of this sort of “interlude” track he had recorded with Tommy Lee on drums, which he hadn’t shared the name for yet.
