How To Be A Playa

                                                                                                Straight from the good Ol Kentucky city of Louisville comes these gentlemen with a touch of class, is the group PLAYA. They started out in there hometown of Louisville, doing talent shows, serenading the ladies , driving them wild. Until one day a blessing from above sent them Jodeci a group they admired , rolled into town for a concert. They caught Jodeci after the show and sang for them. DeVante liked what he heard, and signed them to his Swing Mob label.  From Kentucky they were flown out by DeVante to Rochester,NY at Andrews Building (aka Da Bassment.. Many would have thought it was a music school. In that Bassment they had artists like Sugah, Accion, Ginuwine, Da Boogieman (now Bazaar Royale), Timbaland & Magoo, Sista (Missy Elliot) , Stevie J, Reboc, Mr Brendal, Dante Hawkins, Renee Anderson, and of course now Playa.

                    

                                                                Working on many songs at Da Bassment.. Playa guest appeared on the Jodeci cut ‘ Can We Flow” , “Love You Down” (Nutty Professor sdk) , and Al Greens “Could This Be The Love” . Plus Playa had unreleased songs such as “Count On Me” w/K-Ci , “Ridin Around”, Get Down” feat. Timbaland, “Come On,Girl”. For whatever reason all the artists in Da Bassment left to persue there careers on there own.

HOW I FOUND THE NEW PLAYA ALBUM

Around 1998 I was in Strawberries Records and Tapes..buying CD’s, use to be my weekly thing as a DJ . As I was thumbing through the racks I came across the album Cheers 2 U by Playa. I though to myself “ Hmmm.. is this Playa from Da Bassment that I read in the liner notes of Jodeci’s album”. Looking more closely to the CD I recognized there faces from the “Gin & Juice” DeVante video from my Make It Or Break It VHS collection I had.the

Excited,  I purchased  the album , ran straight to my car, grabbed some Mickey D’s, and decided to go on a road trip on a hot summers day. Luckily I had my bathing suit, towel, and my portable CD player.

                                                                                    Arriving at my destination (Gregg Lake- Antrim,NH please visit if you get a chance). I found my spot on the beach, laid my blanket down, popped in my ne Playa CD, and chilled under the hot summer sun rays. The whole CD was a timeless #CLASSIC . My favorite tracks were “Cheers 2 U” , “All The , Way” , “Derby City” “Ms Parker” feat. Missy Elliot. , “One Man Woman” feat. AAliyah, and “I’ll Be 2 C U” . The album was produced partly by Timbaland. As well as sangin Dem Playa Boyz wrote and produced on the album as well. Black from Playa wrote for Aaliyah’s second album. Smokey of Playa had  hand in Drake’s “Look What You’ve Done”

. Static Major of Playa broke the Lil Wayne career breaking platinum single “Lollipop” (Grammy Winning song). 

Playa went to go on to create more classic music. If you get a chance cop the albums and mixtapes

Monsters Ball INC..

"Wish i could my playboy mouth" line blaring on my car radio. "WHOAAA!! who the hell is this singing..This lady takes after my way of talking dirty" i thought to myself. Good thing i was in my carheading towards the radio station i broadcast at. Now i can look up on the computer at the campus library to see who sings that.
                    Once finding who sang it..."Let me see, UMMM!!! Lady Gaga on Akon's label Konvict. Holy fudgenuckers, this girl is with Akon who was with the Fugees. Well polish my nuts and serve me a milkshake, this chick if FILTHY POP hot " talking to myself in the campus library.. HaHa , i think some students heard me say fudgenuckers. They looked at me and giggled..HELLLOOOO!!! Ladies (that is another story for later).
                    Instantly i became a fan of her music. Lucky for Gaga i am a radio DJ, now i can play her songs that aren't on the radio (show policy). Thumbing through her songs i found "Starstruck" & "So Happy I Could Die"
                    "Starstruck" is about when you go a little crazy when you meet someone famous. Like you don't know what to say or (in Gaga's lyrics) you want to have sex with them on the restaurant table. "So Happy I Could Die" is a tale about the feeling of bliss and carelessness that occurs when you're drunk. But if Gaga keeps drinking alcohol to reach that state, it could kill her, therefore being so drunk she could die and she wouldn't even care. I also associate the song with masturbation and drug use, since it also fits in with the theme. OH!!! my fair Lady Gaga your poetry is almost ancient in meaning. Almost as if the stories of old were reworked in your mind..As the line says in the National Treasure movie "People don't talk like that anymore" Yes they do, it comes in the form of Lady Gaga. An old ancient spirit traveled in the present to give us a Shakespearean view of life..A medieval goddess touching the very essence of our being in poetic harmony.                    My deep affection for Stefani's creative heart, mind, soul and muiscal genius. Got me watching Gaga's Monster Ball HBO special. When i go to concerts or watch them on TV, i look very close at the performance. The dance moves, wardrobe change, theme of the show,and the backup singers. Gaga's backup singers are just as good as the mother monster herself. That is where i feasted my eyes on GoGo Morrow. Her voice was like an angel. Such beautiful pipes from a gorgeous soul. I had tears in my eyes and shivers up my spine hearing this voice. You GoGo gurlll!!!!
                    GoGo has opened up for the likes of Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, Kendrick Lamar, Fabolous, Lauryn Hill, Common, The Roots, and Queen Latifah. She was also an assistant at Def Jam, which definitely helped getting her foot in the door. I found a couple of Youtube videos of her which showcases her talent. One was "Thinking About You" a Frank Ocean cover, the other was "Someone Like You" an Adele cover. Her current single "Private Dancer" is sure to climb the charts fast (you can hear it on my show Inet 6 The Star).
                    Okay, we have all heard of the show The Voice. Last year, i was at the family cabin with my folks in Maine diddely doodooing on the laptop. When all of a sudden, i heard this woman on The Voice singing with such style, and grace. I was like "Who is this lady" she is sure to win this round. "Hi my name is Chevonne, i was a backup singer for Lady Gaga"..No wonder i loved her and so did my parents. The judges also agreed with us as well , as Chevonne became part of Team Cee Lo(The Dungeon Fam always knows good talent) Lo even called her a Cherry Bomb because of her gorgeous bright red flowing hair. She got eliminated from the competition later on down the road . But that didn't really matter because she already is as star. Currently Chevonne is working on an album and has two Youtube videos "Catcall" and "My Menorah" a track Adam Sandler could jump on the remix to.
                    Gaga has great back up singers, but she also has a killer guitatrist named Kareem "Jesus" Devlin. This guitarist could top the likes of Slash, Joe Perry, and Eddie VanHalen he is that good. Such a rare performer in these days, you could see him for years to come with his talent.
