Shawty Redd - Who’s With Me
Here’s the deal. When Young Jeezy’s first album came out in 2005 (“Thug Motivation 101”), I had some favorite songs—they were all the ones that thumped a certain way. Turned out Shawty Redd had produced almost every single one of my favs (though not a majority of the album). So I’ve been following Redd’s MySpace.
Last October, I stumbled upon an instrumental to this track. I flipped. Listened on repeat on headphones alone at night, played it for everyone at pregames.
Then it disappeared.
I checked his page today randomly and, lo and behold, it’s back as a fully recorded song (or demo?). I still love it, so here it is. Pardon the quality.
I still think Redd is the producer who best demonstrates the currently trendy combination of banging Southern Rap with Trance flourishes. No GarageBand needed.
