“He didn’t sit down with any of the heads at Duct Tape,” Alley told XXLMag.com, clarifying that LA is not signed with the imprint. “[Yung LA] aint’ get the okay from none one of us and ain’t none one of us told you nothin’ about you having nothing to do with Duct Tape. You dead wrong.”
To the casual observer, LA’s tattoo is just a duck. To Alley, the logo represents loyalty. “There are people willing to lay down their life for that logo, we’re a real close knit family,” said the Duct Tape honcho , who’s also signed to Atlantic Records as an artist.
Asked what he believes was the motivation behind the artwork, Alley said: “I guess he ran into my lil’ homies and shit, kickin’ it with them. You know they drinkin’ lean, smokin’ together…I guess he took that [as] being cool with some Duct Tape members, but they can’t tell you to go put nothin’ on your face.”
“He’s gonna have [to get] like a pendant or a star or somethin’ to cover that shit,” Alley added. “It’s like an ex-boyfriend name or somethin’, he finna get that shit covered-up.

feeling these two tracks a lot
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8s7R3p-dIc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WVl98bAKPU
also the g-side album is a bit slept on - rev/rennavate and i talked about it on twitter a bit last night. think we all think the production >>>> the rapping, but the production is pretty special (the strings on "came up") and i love the overall cohesive feel of it.
also, the young dro mixtape is predictably great - this is prob my favourite track on it. HOES IN A SUMMERHOUSE IN BEIJING

I don't think the G-Side album is slept on, it just got its love from the indier sections of the internet. I don't really like it, drums don't hit hard enough or something. Funny that they flipped a Beach House sample before The Weeknd tho.

can I just say the credit "Pitbull Featuring Ne-Yo, AfroJack & Nayer" (whoever the hell Nayer is) is hilarious. song sux tho.
― banjee trillness (The Reverend), Tuesday, 19 April 2011 17:45 (thirteen years ago) link
i heard that on the radio the other day and was kinda surprised how much i liked it, considering how far both Pitbull and Ne-Yo have both fallen off

anyone dl the new prodigy mixtape from complex? all produced by sid roams, kinda curious
― the zing cheese incident (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 19 April 2011 19:11 (thirteen years ago) link
I've only heard 'Strong' from the Prodigy mixtape which apparently isn't produced by sid roams, anyway, i think whoever produced it messed up the nina simone sample - between the verses it sounds slightly awkward to me - they make a slight cut and it doesn't flow right to my ears. I'm probably just being picky fuck it.

i love that they're still releasing jams off this nht boyz record even though it's from last year, shit is still one of the most underrated records from '10 i think. its way fun, lots of dimension, playful old school vibe w/out sounding 'retro'
