Cheri Amour
Hit the ground running on my first official day back on my job in the USA. One of the important orders of business was to stop by the Cheri Dennis video shoot for the song I produced and co-wrote with Corey “Latif” Williams, called “I Love U”. After a few minutes at the door (explaining my reason for showing up in the first place), I was able to congratulate Cheri on this milestone in her career. I am very glad to play a role in introducing her to the world. This clip illustrates her contagious excitement:
I’ll spend the rest of the week overseeing a casting call for Cassie’s dancers (she has a show May 3rd), mixing a record with Pat Viala for Def Jam artist Megan Rochell, planning for my tour to the UK in May, working with Sean Collins on organizing and reviewing our music submissions, and tightening up Cassie’s records for the A&R meeting on Tuesday. Though the 4 D’s can truly make sleep scarce, I embrace with pride the responsibilities of a young entrepreneur.

Oh and the 4D’s may make sleep scarce…but as they say…either u “Pay now to Play Later” or you “Play now to Pay Later”. Delayed Gratification…and ur a living testimony that it works!

I wanted to thank you again for giving me the advice you did . I took heed to it and im doing well with our music and current single. We are even planning to remix and put a couple of hot rappers we met from my space on it. People have been really telling us how hot are music is .. I greatly thank you for the advice ..
People this is a very real man. He’s extremely busy but he takes the time to do these blogs and will reach back to you. He doesn’t have to do this but he does and more people will follow his lead because he’s successful. “Just rock with it “

hehe, the guys at the door. They never get to understand who you are, even as dj sometimes they ask you who you are and what you want here.
Once the fucking guy at the door didnt want to let me in, i was a lil bit late as well and then i needed to call the boss and he was really angry but for gods sake he tought i am late because of him(the guy at the door)

Been playing “I LOVE U” in the UK for a few months now, trying to create that buzz because it is a big track, but people over here are a bit slow. Man you are talented Ryan, gonna be looking out for your stuff forever. See you when you come over to London.
Sunday, April 9th, 2006 at 12:42 pm
I should of known you had part of making this song……..For weeks I was asking people who was the artist and who produced the song ”I Love U”…. I kept hearing this track on the radio but had no idea who it was until now.

That song is a triumph.
“I love you” was bubbling under for sooooo long.
I first heard it on pjbutta like a year ago!!
The arrangement, the simplicity of the instrumentation…
(and i of course like seeing bad boy get any type of break)
I hope to one day soon feel what it’s like to have hits of my own (our own - U.G.E. )
