A little article on "THE FIXXERS" on Mtv.com
« on: June 18, 2007, 09:54:51 AM »
You guy's can check it out it's under mixtape monday on Mtv's website..

Originally, the Fixxers stepped to Interscope Records to get a ringtone deal for their debut group cut, "Can U Werk Wit Dat." But once the execs at the 'Scope heard the entire project, they offered DJ Quik and AMG a full album deal.

"Can U Werk Wit Dat" has been one of the biggest songs in L.A. since February, and yes, the ringtone is popular as well. Call it a win/win. When asked about a potential follow-up, the duo said they have one-half of Gnarls Barkley along for the ride. Lucky for Cee-Lo, Prince was living clean at the time. "He's a different kind of Prince," AMG said about Lo. "He's the prince of pop music."

As the Left Coast duo were putting together tracks for their upcoming collabo project, The Midnight Life, Prince came to mind for a particular track. "It's a real erotic-like record," Quik explained of "The Middle." "We reached out to him because it's a real Prince-like record." Problem was the Purple One has turned over a more devout life since his earlier, raunchier days. "So basically, he's not gonna be on it," AMG said jokingly.

But old friend Cee-Lo came through with no problems, and now the track is set to be the follow-up to "Can You Werk Wit Dat," the hard-partying song featured on "Entourage." In the meantime, Quik and AMG have also been in the studio recently with Yung Joc, T-Pain, Frankie J, Young Jeezy and Jim Jones.

But the Fixxers are still working out which tracks they're gonna give away to other artists and which ones they want to keep for their album. "We're doing old-fashioned hip-hop music," AMG explained. "We're like pirates." ...

I don't mind if they make new music... it's 2007
Quik always comes with heat
but those features are just fuckin hilarious to a real quik fan
too bad they couldn't get prince for the album
but hey... get your money man!
hopefully quik will return to his roots on his solo album

Quik and Prince would be good, but I'd settle for a Morris Day Quik collab too.
