Everything is going fucking crazy and this album is coming together. We’re almost done with it and we’re looking for a summer release. When we’re done with it, we’re supposed to go to Dre with it and see if Dre wants to jump on which it looks like he is. So you know just the fact that he's interested in it is a blessing. But like I said, it's not a matter of who I wanna work with, it's a matter of who has my sound and who can accommodate me with the sound that I need. I'm not gonna go and work with Cool & Dre because they are hot. I worked with Cool & Dre because they actually have that soulful sound that I'm known for.

That sounds pretty good. I don't think they'll be able to hold the summer-release though. After all, we're already at the end of May and the promo hasn't even started. It's all good though. I ain't tripping. We just had the 2007 BC mixtape, so I got enough Omar Cruz material to bump this summer.

Also interesting to hear that Dr. Dre is willing to give the album a spin and produce a cut if he likes the end result. He doens't give every artist this chance...

Jimmy Iovine is going crazy over the album and everything is good right now.

And THAT is always good to hear: that Mr Iovine is loving the album. Hopefully they'll push O Dot Cruz in a major way

Props to ThaFormula.com too btw. They always ask very good questions.

It's a lot of up tempo, a lot of energy, definitely a few legends on the record as well. Cube, Snoop, Dogg Pound, Xzibit and I would love to have Quik and Dre as that would really make me happy as far as on the mic, not so much on the production side. I would love to produce them on a song and have them on my album.

hmm... interesting

I hope that doesn't mean a more Dirty South sound to it...

yeah if the battlecat shit has a dirty south feel to it i will be pissed because i wanna hear that funk and i hope we get to hear that 2pac shit some time................also cruz needs to really see about hooking up with battlecat because his flow and voice would go perfect with battlecat.
