Both Best Buy bonus tracks, "Hold Up" and "Do It" are produced by Dana "Dee Jay Dana" Ramey. They both feature
Durt Boy.
Billboard has an
article talking about Jay-Z's "Show Me What You Got" and Diddy's "We Gon' Make It", both of which sample "Shaft in Africa" by Johnny Pate.
Chalk it up to a case of fluke timing for the hip-hop superstars, as the tracks have different producers and were cleared months apart from each other. "Show Me What You Got" was produced by Just Blaze and cleared in September, while K-Def is the producer on "We Gon' Make It," which was cleared last summer, according to a source familiar with the situation.
From the
Detroit Free Press:
Love him or hate him, the guy makes the music that makes people move. Sean (Diddy) Combs won't actually be in town tonight, but his new music will. The producer/fashion designer/music mogul/man of many name changes is gearing up for the release of his album "Press Play" on Tuesday, and he's giving Detroit a first listen. The event at Icon Lounge also will feature happy hour specials on all drinks ($5) between 9-11 p.m. Even better? Admission is free if you shoot an e-mail to get on the guest list. Details: 9 tonight, Icon Lounge, 1431 Times Square, Detroit. 313-477-5683. E-mail
