Good morning!
There are so many SPECTACULAR things going on at Baby Ree! I'm so proud of our whole team!
Below you will find the link to the new mixtape that came out over the weekend:
"DJ Whoo Kid & Shady Records Presents: Young De & Ca$his: HOMELAND SECURITY"
HOSTED BY: EMINEM
Executive Producer: Damizza
http://shadyville.biz/
It also features production & mixing by Baby Ree's own in-house team of staff producers/engineers: Carlos "Los" Ramirez, DJ Overtone & "Jedi" Jared Moore!
Los did the 1st single "In God's Hands" that's ALREADY spinning at Shade45/Sirius radio and is featured (and rated 4 out of 5 stars) on hip-hop web site Allhiphop.com. Check out the link below:

Los is also preparing his 1st solo effort, a street album entitled "Hate Me Or Love Me". He started recording about a month ago and is almost done. Not a bad look for a 20 year old! He's been producing professionally for 3-4 years and has had projects with: B-Real (of Cypress Hill,) Ca$his, Young De, MC Magic, and now EMINEM!
Young De has also co-written and is featured on B-Real's 1st solo single "Don't You Dare Laugh." The video dropped yesterday online and went right up on the FRONT PAGE of ALLHIPHOP.COM Check the video here, directed by Matt Alonzo. You'll get to hear one of the most legendary rappers of our time pave the way for Young De with a very innovative record that samples Suzanne Vega's smash "Tom's Diner." De is doing amazing and will be HEAVILY featured on the upcoming Cypress Hill album dropping 1st/2nd quarter next year.
Bishop Lamont (Aftermath/Interscope) & I just did an AWESOME interview together with HipHopDX. Check it out. We're definitely up to something BIG for first quarter!

The book I'm co-writing with J. Marshall Craig & Eddie Gurrola, 'Guilty By Association,' is set for February (via Amazon,) & HipHopDX is going to do a feature (and a short interview) later in the week that lays out a little more detail on what the whole thing is about and why the press initially mislabeled it a 'Tell-All'.
Einztien & AG Adreniline have been hard at work putting the finishing touches on their showcase for Sony/BMG ((angel??))
Thank You & Congrats to the BEST TEAM EVER!
P.S.: Please send your thoughts and well wishes to all that were affected by these fires all over Cali. So many people lost their homes, and we're keeping them in our prayers.
