Producer Detail Discusses New Single with Bow Wow Featuring Lil Wayne

New York, NY – Throughout his career, Bow Wow has done many things from breaking into the rap game at a very young age and then shortly after into the film industry. However, he feels as though he doesn’t have the respect that he deserves from the amount of years he’s put into the game, hence his latest studio album is entitled ‘Underrated.’

Now signed to Cash Money, Bow Wow hopes to reinvent himself as an artist under the wings of Wayne and Birdman. Up to the point where his latest single entitled ‘Sweat’ has the feature of his labelmate Wayne with the production from Detail just to prove his place. Interestingly enough, that song and feature that was released on October 13 almost didn’t happen.

MTV News recently caught up with the man behind the production, Detail, to discuss that song in question and how it came about.

These were his comments:

“Obviously everybody knows I got a very diverse sound — I can do pop, I can do rock, I can do hip-hop, R&B,” the very confident “How to Love” beatmaker told Mixtape Daily. “For me it’s just a matter of studying the artist and kinda coming up with a formula that’s more natural for them.”

According to MTV News, for the song ‘Sweat,’ Detail laid a slow-rolling, pulsating pop track for Bow Wow, who often seems to struggle with getting fans to focus on the face that he is now grown and not a little boy anymore. Bow sings in Auto-Tune over the track, creating an aura of sexual seduction with his explicit lyrics. Wayne of course adds his unique brand of flirtatious, double-timed raps into the mix.

However, even with a potentially hit track, Detail told Mixtape Daily that the collaboration almost didn’t happen the way it was suppose to go down. Wayne and Bow Wow had already cut a record together, and Young Money president Mack Maine wasn’t keen on making a second track.
Apparently, that all changed the beat was sent to Maine after the two talked at the album release party for ‘Tha Carter IV’ in Los Angeles.

“At Lil Wayne’s Carter IV release party, I was talking to [Maine] about the ‘Sweat’ record. He hadn’t even heard [it]. He was like, ‘[Wayne] already got a record with Bow Wow.”

After listening to beat and gaining the approval from Maine, the project was greenlit for the go ahead on the track.

“He hit me back and said, ‘Damn that bitch is a beast,’ ” Detail said. “So when he said that, I knew off the top that this motherfucker gonna go.”

At press time, Bow Wow’s seventh studio album ‘Underrated’ has been scheduled for a December 6 release through Cash Money Records and Universal Republic.

No matter how old Bow Wow gets, he’ll always be typecast as that little kid when he first came out. It’s understandable that many artists receive acclaim from the features of Lil Wayne; I’m just not sure if that goes the same for Bow Wow.

50 Cent Releases his own Public Service Announcement

New York, NY – Talk about a domino theory, one person initiates one thing and another person does the same. So apparently the G-Unit General has decided to release his own PSA to the world covering matters of poverty, corruption, and promises to make a difference.

Honestly, I could sit here break down and analyze every little tidbit that he mentions, I just prefer not to. I doubt any of this will ever see the light of day after the week is over. Either way, he aims this PSA towards politicians.

Here is the official PSA published on ThisIs50.com over the weekend:

“The world is so fucked up
People don’t seem to care anymore

People seem to have distanced themselves from other people’s problems, they have been programmed not to care!

Politicians are corrupt…So many companies are corrupt and taking excessive profits in certain sectors…….and we keep allowing this shit to happen
There are 1 billion plus people living in extreme poverty. You know what that is? You don’t know if your getting your next meal, no shelter, no medical. You have no chance of hustling your way out of it!
We have been programmed to not give a s*** about these people!

Well I have woken up and I’m not turning a blind eye anymore!

I’m not playing the game anymore. Our Company CEO’s and politicians want us to keep our heads down and not ask questions. Not demand the truth
they don’t want us to care, they have trained us to turn a blind eye!
Because they control us and profit from us this way!
to push back at them questions and threatens their lifestyles.

Children are dying everyday from hunger. Its f***** up, its wrong and I am angry
I’m not going to shut up or give up – f*** the system, its wrong.
wake up we are being used!

Innocent children are dying each day…. we need to shout out to companies, politicians that we aren’t playing their games anymore
We are waking up to their lies and deceitful dealings

I’m angry, I’m going to make a difference and no one is going to stop me
Join me if your tired of being used and manipulated
Make this world fair for everyone.”

Nothing against 50, but why now and why even, I’m trying to figure out what his motive or reason is behind all this.
