Ludwig Van Zaytoven

zaytoven2

hahahaha, holy shit!

“his name alone sets the tone for who he is, what he does and the magnitude of his skill set. super-producer xavier “zaytoven” dotson copped his name from the german composer and pianist ludwig van beethoven because of the many similarities the two musicians share. both were born in germany, both mastered the organ and piano at a young age, both boast a genuine interest in music and most notably possessed the same good foresight to align themselves with the key people who could help further their careers. for beethoven it was the dignitaries of vienna, for zaytoven it was gucci mane, king of the streets of east atlanta.”

“both boast a genuine interest in music”

Jamie Foxx!

jamiefoxx

so tonight’s idol mentor/theme is “songs from jamie foxx movies”, 1) WTF 2) who’s doing the “booty call” soundtrack. that led me to googling the foxx man’s filmography….seriously, 2004, jamie foxx, maybe the all-time best year for anyone ever. not only did dude release films for which he would win an oscar (“ray”), a second oscar nom (“collateral”), and three golden golbe nominations (“ray” (won), “collateral”, “tookie williams story”, in that year jamie was featured on 2 #1 singles (“slow jamz” & “gold digger”)! for real…. holy shit! i can’t recall anyone even coming close to a year or even two/three years like that. maybe cher in the mid to late 80’s? sinatra? not madonna or elvis. yes jamie foxx in the same discussion as/superseding cher, sinatra, elvis, madonna. total mindblower.

Slakah the Beatchild – Enjoy Ya Self V2 (Feat. Drake)

drake

a vid for “enjoy ya self v2” off slakah the beatchild’s “soul movement vol 1” LP surfaced in the last couple weeks. the vid itself is cool. but damn, what a dope song. the track goes deep, from the great vocal harmonies and cool drum mix/rhythmic elements to drake, where has this drake been? like it. anyway, somehow we’d slept on this one. while we get on our best rise and shine shit, you should do like the song says (version 2).
