On-line With Usher
Spent some time adding a lead line to a track I had started with Uness…and got a call from Usher, who I had been tracking down for a few months now. He and I have been friends since the fall of 2004 when I spent some time at his house in Atlanta working on One Chance, the R&B group signed to his label US Records. As he puts together the game plan for blasting off his newest venture, I wanted to extend NextSelection’s expertise in taking full advantage of the internet as a media distribution channel that simply can not be ignored in today’s music industry. Set up a meeting in Atlanta for the next day, and realized I needed to wait until I returned from Paris as I had some loose ends to tie up (i.e. Cassie’s appearance at Lot 401 Saturday night)…
Stay tuned for how this develops - I’m very hopeful to see “Mr. Entertainment” paying attention to the on-line revolution.

Cool blog as always!
Can’t wait for the next one.
*You should come down to Houston, TX and do a show or let them know about the NextSelection Movement someway. It’ll be a breath of fresh air from the rap game that’s happening down here.

Hey Ryan, just wanted to let you know that the chord progression in the song you were working on sounds very very similar to my girl Janet Jackson’s song Thinkin’ ‘Bout My Ex. Babyface produced it.
