Music: Jodeci - Can We Flo?

Once again, let's just start from the begining!
Jodeci days, & you know DeVante likes to put his protege in the spolight, in videos cameo or in Jodeci songs.
This time let's talk about that 95 album "The Show, The After-Party, The Hotel"



In this album, you got the best out of the Bassment crew: Timbaland, Missy, Stevie J. & Playa.
Just remember on a smokey interview, he said that sometimes DeVante woke up one of them to come & record vocals instead of K-Ci or JoJo, & no matter what time of the night (or early in the morning) they had to do it, no second chance for the lazy boys.
So here's Playa doin some background in the song Can We Flo?.


We can hear some Playa harmonies in the hook behind JoJo's lead vocals, & on the bridge at the end, the "ooooh" is done by Playa, & again DeVante shout out Static "Yo Static get my fur out of the closet G", thats' what i'm talkin about, DeVante was about to do it big with Da Bassment Crew, & guess which artist of the camp come first at the shout outs in the album ????



If you don't already know this song, shame on you!

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?
