Man, i gotta tell you. Your Production skills have always been dope. "Roll Wit MVP (we be like)" been in my deck lately. That was a Jam. What ever happened to Stagga man?
hi sweetie...ur cuz told me u were going to be playing @ nikki beach in maimi for wmc....thats awesome ;) let us know when day exactly that will be so we can go show our support ;)
Tonight we fired up the Rhapsody player and reminisced on things C+C. Thoughts: The album GONNA MAKE YOU SWEAT remains a quintessential dance-floor scorcher; “Take A Toke” still inspires love in the heart, a knowing smile on the lips, and a twinkle in the eye; and Clivilles and Cole will always be unparalleled genius. For the legacy, for the present, and for what’s to come, we make a toast of love and of respect. God bless :)
Hey Rob! Just dropping a line to tell you that C+C Music Factory was the real thing! It was and still is a big part of my musical influence! Good to see that you're still producing good music! It changes from generic music that wa hear everywhere! Cheers!
