Apr 2 - Slim Thug:Is Off Star Trak,"Was Never Officially Sing To Pharel",Works W/DRe

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

t looks like Pharrell's Star Trak imprint may be dwindling down yet again. Kelis and the Clipse have already left from under Skateboard P's and Chad Hugo's banner, and now Slim Thug may be going the same route.

Last week, Slim — on the phone from Dallas, where he was in the studio with another VA super-producer, Timbaland — revealed that he was never signed to Star Trak in the first place.

"When I signed to Interscope, it was through [my own label] Boss Hogg Outlawz. Then [Interscope Chairman] Jimmy Iovine — this is before the Houston movement took off with myself, Paul Wall, Mike Jones and Chamillionaire — wanted to put me with Pharrell to make it pop. At the end of the day, [sales of my debut album, Already Platinum] didn't go how we expected it to go. It looked good on paper, I enjoyed it, had fun, but when I'm in the streets in my city, they like, 'We want to hear you on our sh--. We don't want to hear you on Pharrell's sh--.' I liked working with P though. Hopefully we'll still be able to do a record together or something."

Thug says that, even in light of the revelations about Star Trak, we still might see the label's logo on the back of his next album. There are a couple of options he can go with.

"I don't know yet," Slim added. "It's either you do three songs with him and get the logo on the back of the CD, or you do one and the price of that one is crazy. Hopefully we'll be able to work that out. But I just been doing the record by myself; when I finish it, we'll figure it out.

"I'mma be more on top of [my business]," Thug continued, in regards to his albums. "[With Already Platinum], at the beginning, they gave me the idea of working with Pharrell, and I left it up to them to handle everything. On this one, it's just me. Everything will be in my hands. I'll be making sure everybody is getting down like they supposed to."

Thug's Boss of All Bosses is slated for early this summer, but since he's still recording and has to mix and master the effort, mid-summer to early fall is more likely.

"Mainly I been working with cats outta Houston, cats like Mr. Lee, cats I was with before I signed," Thugger said. "But I got Jermaine Dupri, Timbaland, Jazze Pha, J.R. Rotem, Polow [Da Don] gave me some fire. I did something with DJ Toomp called 'Theme Song.' "

And let's not leave out Dr. Dre. The legendary producer also slid Slim a beat.

"I got the record," he said. "I'm waiting on Devin. I want Devin the Dude to sing the hook for me, but the bi*ch is jamming. I got the beat already. My A&R got the track. It ain't like I made the beat with Dre — he did it in Hawaii, he be doing beats out there and comes back with them."

Slim Thug is kinda underrated, I would love to here a collabo with Dre, if it's true of course.

[Al Bundy]

[floatin_above_everything]

sounds interesting. i still need to get his first album. i heard it was bangin

It's 50/50 cause alot of the Neptunes tracks are a little forced, but the Texas styled tracks fuckin bang, so it's ok.

[es-jay]

should be dope, cant wait to hear it.

[Matty]

thread should read 'Dr Dre sends Slim Thug throwaway beat by email'

[Vegasmac25]

cannot wait to hear this track.

[Tanjential]

based on what I've learned lately is that Dre will work with interscope artists whereas artists outside of interscope can just buy a beat from Dre. He makes his buyable beats in hawaii and everything else, he keeps within the sessions. that's dope, why the fuck not? would we rather he didn't fuck with those artists, you know?

i'm down, and i think it's cool that dude wants devin on there.

slim shady, slim the mobster, and now slim thug...this ain't dre, hah.-T
