BEATSTREETS x HOLLYWEERD

Just when I was becoming uninspired to make music, I got a random message on Myspace asking if I wanted to participate on a project. The person who sent me the messege was DJ Jamad. For those who don't know, DJ Jamad is 1/6 of The Aphilliates and has a radio show on Sirus weekly called Afromentals on Hip-Hop nation. In the message, he asked if I was interested in making some remixes with some musical groups & artists he happened to run into. I was like sure. So, DJ Jamad sent me some acapellas and said, "Just do what you do." When I finished with the remixes, I felt that with this particular project, I need to make sure all of my "I's" are dotted and my "T's" are crossed because DJ Jamad was referred to me by Kenny Fresh (Bling 47). With that said, I spent the last of my spending money to go get 1 of my remixes mixed by my homie Jose at The Grill Studio's in Oakland. We were there for about 4 hours mixing the track the best we could, because anymore time, I would not have been able to pay my rent for that month. The songs I remixed are "Weirdo" and "Members Only" by Hollweerd. Hollyweerd is a group from the ATL. If you don't know who they are, you need to find out soon. Make sure you search for those on your favorite blog sites and listen to it as much as you want on my Myspace page soon. There are more tracks to come, so stay tuned.

I was just on my computer making beats when I get a text messege saying, "Yo, check out www.freshselects.net". So I did... And guess what I saw.... Well look below for yourself below. Click on the photos. I'm very honored to have worked with HAVANA, she's very talented (as I have said before in older postings). So make sure you guys help support her when her album comes out in February. When I say support, I mean actually buy her album. There are some free downloads at FRESH SELECTS right now, go check it out. Big ups to everyone who helped make the album.... BROOKE D'LEAU, 1*o.A.k, and you too TRACKADEMICKS.
