GAME TALKS PRODUCTION on R.E.D. ALBUM

Posted by mr. la at 7:00 PM 0 comments

“I feel great about this album,” he said recently after going over tracks at Dr. Dre’s house. “It’s back full-force Aftermath and I’m conjoined with Star Trak.” (Pharrell Williams is one of the LP’s executive producers.) “I got this colorful movement over here where it’s beautiful music on this side [with Star Trak] — then when I need to go dark or super grown and sexy, I got Dre over here. The combination is crazy — mixed in with a Cool & Dre track and RZA track and all the sh– I been doing. The only person I’m upset I didn’t work with on this album is DJ Premier. I feel his sh– would have been perfect for this all-star producer cast that I have. One Premier track would have did me just fine. I would have murdered that sh–. But we ain’t get it in, ’cause he was doing a whole bunch of sh– for Christina Aguilera. I’m just Game. So I gotta just wait for the next album.”

It sucks that I know so much about the background of this interview and what Ruby Hornet was doing in Austin for SXSW, BUT I can't tell ya'll anything.  For now just enjoy the clip.  Sidenote: who remembers when I showed J. Cole on this site as he did his first LA show with UNI at LMU???  And remember when I said Eazee Street would be supporting him from here on out...?  Yeah so tell me how many blogs were down with J. Cole before the Roc Nation deal...

DJ RTC of RubyHornet.com sits down with J. Cole while for an in-depth interview in the Lone Star state. J. Cole talks about how life has changed since a year ago, how the response has gone from hype to props, and distinguishing himself from other up and coming artists without being a jerk. Check it out.
