How do you decide on singles for the people to hear?
DJ Skee: That's the talks between Interscope, Czar Entertainment, and Black Wall Street. We can agree on singles, but sometimes great songs are great songs. Like 'Put You On the Game' was a record that was getting crazy spins because the streets made it hot. Interscope didn't even work that record because of all the beef shit going on at the time between Game and 50. The label cut themselves off so Jimmy Henchman and Game put that shit through Koch and you see how many spins it got! That shit was crazy to do at radio because you get spins with radio promoters and we didn't have any. Imagine if the would have been behind it; that shit would've been HUGE! But now we got all our business straight and that shouldn't happen again.
50 just dropped a mixtape with Game on the cover in a thong. How is Game going to respond to these blatant shots at his image?
DJ Skee: The thing is with that is that it's a Photoshop image. I don't even think he needs to address it. It's over if you ask me. Game made his point. Nothing topped '300 Bars!' '300 Shots' was nowhere near to fucking with Game's shit. Game won and now it's time for him to drop this album.
You hear Game's album and you know what he's saying, give me something, a sample of the album.
DJ Skee: It's just incredible. Like....we ran into Kanye West and Common last night and they were just bugging out on the shit! They heard the one joint with the live instruments, the shit is crazy. It's one of those inspirational joints and we played it back like 30 times in a row! Common and Kanye flipped out.
Is Yukmouth going to be on the album or did they record anything?
DJ Skee: Nah, I don't think so. They haven't recorded, but the beef is dead.
Game got a line in 'One Blood' that's addressing the "Snap Rap." What else is he going to talk on?
DJ Skee: He's going to talk about a lot. He's been through a lot. It's like another debut album so he has a lot to say. He's been through some things, the shit with his family, the crew splitting up....It's all broken down in a few lines. We got a joint with a choir and it's going to touch your heart. What people don't know about this album is that it's very musical.
What about Dr. Dre? The talk has been if he does work with Game, 50 is going to beef with Dr. Dre. Put it out there for the people if Dr. Dre is going to be involved with the album.
DJ Skee: (5 second delay) Man, you gotta buy the album and see. I can't say that, man.
Is the album date going to stick this time? It seems to keep getting pushed back and pushed back.
DJ Skee: Yeah. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if it got pushed up from November 7th. It's not getting pushed back anymore though.
