I've posted some information on the blog exclusive joint "Crazy" by Aura already, but I figured it would make more sense if we heard it straight from her, because she was actually there. So here is the very talented Aura talking about the history of the track: I was signed to Atlantic at the time. Gee Roberson was my A&R and he manages Kanye. Kanye came to the studio and had forgotten his records, but I'm an avid Joni Mitchell fan and had some of her records there. It was like magic watching Kanye work. He crafted that beat like it was a priceless sculpture. When it started to come together Gee, who managed Static at that time too said "What do you think about Static co-writing with you?" Well, I was ecstatic, pun fully intended. Within an hour or so, Static came over. I was fully aware and familiar with his work with Playa, Aaliyah, Genuine and he had also written my girl Truth Hurts super sick single "Addicted", so I was excited. He came in...
statics is better
ReplyDeleteso tru anonymous. I have already realized dat so I dont be too thrilled to hear da final version. Once again another artist use Static's vocals on their track bc they cant hit the notes that he do
ReplyDeleteIt is wat it is.
-R.I.P. big dawg
Just proof that no one puts it down like Static.
ReplyDeleteLike Jasmine say, no one can duplicate only imitate.
Can't nobody touch Static, as DJ Clue would say often imitated never duplicated. Not even Big Snoop could save this version, but at least they didn't autotune the hell out of track.
ReplyDeleteSomeone should add snoops verse to statics version!
ReplyDeleteYung major, i think that would be really dope, two of biggest in the game together, i wonder if Static ever did a song with snoop?
