    OG music, i love his flow on this song, of course, i love all the songs, hard to choose, but this kind of style from Static, the OG style is my preferate.

  2. I gotta go with Grateful. The group harmonzing together over a beat by a Timbo that almost gives the song an eerie undertone.

  5. Either Thru it All or Off At! My reasoning is because I knw hw much these two records truly meant to Static! So when I listen, the things that he said about these two just get me weak EVERYTIME!!! But of course, I love them all. Those two would have to be the ones that get the most rotation in my whip!!

  6. I already knew 5 songs from the mixtape, so i choose from the one i didn't know, but like Neeze, Thru It all, that i first heard Smokey version, was one of my preferate song from Smokey, you can easily tell that the lyrics are for someone in particulary, that's what i like.

  9. I go back and forth Thru it All was always a stand out for me from Smokey's first solo, and it was good to hear this version with Static on lead and Smoke ad-libbing, and it was cool imagining how Whitney would be on it ..... Questions has been my jam since I heard it on Bud'das page in 08 ..... once I got the tape my favorite was definitely Drawls lol ... the background info definitely enhances the listening experience ..... Tru Entertainer is craaaazy, that intro sets it off and hearing them do so much vocally over a simple track, and knowing how many writers would ask for a producer to add more to the track before they could write ..... Stallion is hot for the clubs, and that woulda been a great single cause its an anthem, what guy doesn't go in the club with that attitude?

Music: Static Suppertime Mixtape Vol. 1 (2004) DOWNLOAD LINK

1. Stay Laced (Featuring Lil Flip) (4:14) 2. The Hood (Featuring Lil Flip) (3:41) 3. Rida (Featuring Lil Flip & Cassidy) (2:45) 4. She Say (Featuring Playa) (3:58) 5. Rollin (3:49) 6. Hard Tymez (Featuring Lil Flip) (2:40) 7. Weekend (Featuring Playa) (3:50) 8. Tipsy (3:23) I've heard back in 2005 somebody talk about that "Suppertime Mixtape", but i found it in 2008, & unfortunaly, the mixtape was just available in mp3 format. Released with no real promotion (but Louisville resident as i know, had this mixtape for a while), i guess lot of us didn't know about it until lately. This is for the hood lovers, got Lil Flip on it, Young Sears productions, it's OG Music here! We also got Playa songs on it. I guess Static wanted to give us just a taste of what Suppertime could be, the "Vol. 1" meaned it had to has other volume coming, but for this one like i said, it's OG Music except the last track... Edit: You can listen & buy the mixtape here U...

Music: Playa "Let It Go"

If you've heard this song by Playa and the beat sounds familiar, that's because it should. Alicia Keys released "You Don't Know My Name" with the same beat in 2003 and the song reached #3 on the Billboard Top 100. Although we don't know the story of why the beat, which was produced by Kanye West, is used for two different songs, I might venture a guess at it. You see, once it was realized Playa's second album would not be released and thus "Let It Go" would be shelved, I'm pretty sure Kanye wanted to capitalize his gains on the beat and sold it to Alicia. Maybe Tim can clarify, as this is just my guess! Here is the Alicia Keys song for comparison purposes. Which do you like better?
