Title: Damani Interview: Dr Dre to Produce on Westurn Union album?!!
Post by: Woodrow on July 11, 2008, 11:39:41 AM
Lyay.net recently got the chance to sit down with one third of the Westurn Union: Damani. We talked a bit about his solo career, the Westurn Union, The state of the West Coast and other issues. One big surprise is that Damani talked about the possibility of Dr Dre appearing on the Westurn Union album (It’s in part two). I'll believe it when I hear it but the possibility alone sounds TIGHT.

It could happen.  Dre has put his stamp of approval on Soopafly by putting him on "The Wash" soundtrack.  Dre knows Soopafly is the leader of the westcoast movement right now and is very talented.  Hopefully it happens....but, we can't have too many outside producers on the album.  It needs to be almost all Soopafly production.  Say there are 16 tracks on the album, that would mean Dre's beat would have to be better than 16 of Soopafly's beats in order to make the cut.  I don't like Dre's chances there.

my only concern about a WU album with a Dre beat is that they'll have to "wait" for dre and the album wont be able to drop on the release date given which is Aug 19

the video should drop really soon if we expect the aug 19 date to stick.

That would be a doom scenario.

Aug. 19th??? No way!  That's my birthday, I swear on everything!!  There's something in the stars that Soopafly picked that day to release the Westurn Union CD. 

First I pick my forum name to be "Soopafly DPGC" back in 2002, then, 6 years later, the real Soopafly joins the forums and picks his name to be Soopafly dpgc, without any knowledge that I had the same name and that I'm a huge fan.  And now he unknowingly picks my birthday to release the Westurn Union CD.  Man, our connection is much more than just artist-fan....it's something spiritual right there.

Snoop's involved and trying to sabatoge Soopafly again, I think that's what's up.  If Ego Trippin would have done big numbers, Snoop would've dropped WU, but now that it's flopped, he doesn't want Fly to outshine and outsell him.  I just pray that Aug. 19th sticks.  What a great birthday present that would be.

I think its a damn shame that Westurn Union is not signed to a major label. they got potential... In my opinion Snoop or whoever , made a mistake when they got off MCA (wich is now known as Geffen) they had good promo there
