Summer Williams – Belong To You (prod. by S1 ‘co-producer of Kanye West’s Power’) (MP3)

My man Dashah of Fresh Vetz sent me this. Summer Williams is a NY-based songstress that will be featured on Fresh Vetz’ upcoming album, Blue Collarz. In addition to working with those boys, she’s promoting her upcoming mixtape, Boom Bap Soul Vol. 1 which drops on March 1st. Today’s mp3, entitled Belong to You produced by S1 who co-produced of Kanye West’s Power. On this release, the soultry honey throated vocalist crafts a record strictly for the lovers as she laces the warm track with melodies that bring up flashbacks of a young Anita Baker. This song is perfect for this time of the year where everyone is aiming to get that special someone to be theirs…this is their soundtrack.

Rhymefest Preps Sophomore Record “El Che” for May 18th

The Grammy-winning artist includes guests Saigon, Little Brother and Production from Scram Jones, S1, BKS and Terry Hunter on the upcoming record. In anticipation of the release, fans can expect a mixtape to drop in April, DANGEROUS: 5-18.” We can also expect Rhymefest to go all-out because his new hook up with dN|Be Entertainment allows him to flex those creative muscles; in other words, take a listen to “Talk My Shit,” “One Arm Push Up” and Scram Jones produced “Give It To Me” f/Saigon & Adad for some corporate-bashing. Phonte comes in on “Say Whassup” and “Prosperity” and “How High” has Little Brother and Darien Brockington. Tracklisting and tourdates after the jump.
