…beat???
Lil’ Wayne Feat. Fabolous & Juelz Santana – You Ain’t Got Nuthin’ On Me
This song, from Lil Wayne’s multi-platinum Tha Carter III, was produced by The Alchemist and he recently revealed to XXL that it was meant for his upcoming album.
Originally Wayne was just suppose to do the hook, but he dropped a verse on it and then requested to have the track for his album. Alchemist said that he was upset about the request initially.
“At first, I was angry. Just the stubborn, dumb rapper/producer guy. Like, ‘Nah, son, I’m making an album! You’re pulling my arm out of my body! This is a finger on my body and you’re making the body incomplete.’”
Blah, blah, blah….then Universal cut him a check for $350,000 and the clouds parted, the sun came out and he got over it.
Really?? What have I been doin’ with my life? I should’ve been a producer. I knew it…that Casio keyboard I got when I was 8 yrs old was fuckin’ golden. But nooo my dumb ass wanted to collect comic books and play ‘it’ and ‘freeze tag’. I mean I like that song and I fux wit the beat, but damn…$350,000?? It wasn’t even released as a single. I wonder how long it took him to make that beat. Let’s just say it took him a total of 24hrs to make it….that’s roughly $14,500.00 an hour.
I swear I need to reevaluate my “career”….first I missed my calling as Keri Hilson’s background dancer and now this.
