We recently got the chance to sit down with up-and-comer Ced L Young (N Zone), who produced several beats from Pill’s 4075: The Refill. He showed us some of the process and thinking that went into making ”Run Up To Me” and “Pain In They Eyes”, two of the hottest songs from the mixtape. Look out for more exclusive videos from BLVD ST coming soon.
One of my favorites-Willie Hutch “I Can Sho’ Give You Love”
One of the most talented musicians I have ever heard. The Dallas, Texas native is responsible for many soul hits. He wrote several songs for the popular soul group the Fifth Dimension and penned the hit song “I’ll Be There” for the Jackson 5. Also, Willie co-arranged the vocals on the Jackson 5 songs “Got To Be There” and “Never Can Say Goodbye.” Hutch produced Smokey Robinson’s first album without the Miracles. He recorded a slew of his own albums on the Motown label which include “The Mark of the Beast,” “Concert in Blues,” “Color Her Sunshine,” and “Havin’ a House Party.” Willie wrote the song “Keep the Fire Burning” for Gwen McCrae. He collaborated with legendary Motown producer/songwriter Berry Gordy on “What Have We Got to Lose,” which was a duet between Arethra Franklin and the Four Tops; the song/production “Hello Detroit” for Sammy Davis, Jr., and the soundtrack album for the immensely enjoyable martial arts action picture “The Last Dragon,” which features Hutch’s rousing song “The Glow.” Willie also worked as either a producer and/or songwriter for such artists as Marvin Gaye, Diana Ross, and Junior Walker. Perhaps, Hutch was best known for composing the scores for the excellent cult favorites “The Mack” and “Foxy Brown.” (more…)
Silky Pimp Cutta appeared on Dirtys 2005 Rap-A-Lot release, “Hood Stories”
Pimp Dick is SLATED to appear on Paper Route Recordz “Still Headlinin” Complimation, which has been delayed for an eternity now it seems. Produced by Mali Boi of the Blockbeataz, it takes a vocal sample from Pimp Cutta and samples the beat. Both songs are my shits and stay in rotation so I thought they deserved a post. The group “Untamed” of Paper Route raps on “Pimp Dick”
