Kanye West recently leaked “Christmas In Harlem,” a song featuring Cam’ron, Jim Jones, CyHi Da Prynce, Pusha T, Teyana Taylor, Big Sean and Musiq Soulchild.
Vibe Magazine caught up and asked producer Hit-Boy how his beat landed on the song.
“My boy Dala Roc hooked me up with Kanye’s cousin, Ricky. This was around the time when he started working on My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. I just kept sending him beats to try and get one on there. Then, on the night of Kanye’s New York release party, Ricky called saying Kanye wanted to use one of my beats for a Christmas song.
There are some Marvin Gaye interpolations in there and it has that old-school feel to it. I never really heard it as a Christmas song but when Kanye heard it, he said it sounded like some classic Christmas music.”
