02/24: "In and Out of Love" Bonus Info
Despite what
Cheri Dennis told us and
Billboard reported, it does not appear that the
U.S. version of "In and Out of Love" will have any bonuses.
However, it looks as though there will be two bonus tracks on the
Japanese release. According to
cdjapan.co.jp, they will be "Freak" and "Ooh La La".
"Freak" was put out as a promotional single back in 2004, seemingly an attempt to generate some buzz behind Cheri to see if it would catch, leading to her album being released. It didn't. The track featured Babs and with Diddy all over it, it's easily one of my favorite Cheri Dennis songs. With
Babs now off the label, you may see the no rap version, if this actually ends up being true.
"Ooh La La" was the opening song for Making the Band 2, Diddy's first foray into reality television. Back in 2006, it looked like this track
would make her album. On her website,
you could listen to a version featuring two verses from former Bad Boy rapper G. Dep. But, as "In and Out of Love" became a reality, it was stripped from the tracklist. Like Babs,
G. Dep is no longer with the label. So, you could see a no rap version here, as well.
But, really, I think it's great that these two tracks are finally being released, certainly giving one an incentive to pick up the Japanese release of the album.
