B.G. Announces First Single To Feature Hot Boys

April 23rd, 2008 | Author: Jake Paine

Earlier this week, Florida rapper Smitty released the song to deejays and through his Myspace titled "Keep It 100." [click to listen] Sources told HipHopDX that the song's music was copyrighted to Atlantic Records, as an upcoming track on B.G.'s upcoming major label return Too Hood 2 Be Hollywood.

Representatives from B.G.'s Chopper City Records spoke to HipHopDX this afternoon to confirm this, saying, "Smitty only had the two-track version of the song. We asked him to remove the song and cease-and-desist promoting it, and his camp was very cooperative."

Perhaps on a bigger note, B.G.'s first single was announced as a reunion with The Hot Boys, the group consisting of Juvenile, Turk and Lil Wayne that was instrumental in B.G.'s mainstream success nearly a decade ago. The record is titled "Ya Heard Me," and is produced by Cool & Dre. "This record is a classic," said the label representative.

Although Too Hood 2 Be Hollywood has yet to be assigned a release date, the album is expected within the next three months. "We're in the final stages of mixing it right now," the source said.

In February, B.G. and DJ Drama released Hood Generals [click to listen].
