I could party to this. This > Ja Rule's livin it up.
what'd you use on your voice? can't hear the accent..you sound american.
This track drops hard in the club. I'm really looking forward to doing it live.
I don't really have a British accent when I talk so it doesn't come out when I rap or sing either. I like to think of my voice as transatlantic. I've had people think I'm American, Canadian, Australian, all sorts of things. I don't mind, I prefer that people can't pin me down straight away.
Not sure what effects were used on the vocals because I didn't mix it, my cousin did.
Anyway....this version of the track is for our new compilation which is sort of a greatest hits type deal with all the big songs from our last few albums, 2 new songs including this one and couple of remixes. It marks the end of an era for us because we're only doing all-English stuff from now on. In fact I've been writing verses for a full English version of this track in the last few weeks, so that'll be on the new mainstream album that comes out later this year.
Fun anecdote - the "AYYY"'s and "OHHHH"'s that sit behind the female chorus were the most fun to record. Me and my cousin were laughing our asses off doing that. To get that "massive crowd' sound, you basically have to record as many different takes as you can but using all sorts of different voices. It was just me and my cousin in the studio at that point so we spent about half an hour doing the most random and fucked up voices possible. Doing ones that sound like an old man, The Godfather, and Tony Montana. Doing ones deliberately off key, in roaring growling voices and whatever. Doing ones crouching on the floor and shouting upwards at the mic and shit. When you blend them all together, you get that sound that's kind of like the chants you hear at sports games. Those are the bits that get people singing along in the club!!!
