Young Jeezy And CTE Launches New Site, Plus, Gyant Chats It Up With No ID [Video-Part One].
Posted on June 16, 2008 1:00 PM
Shout out to CTE for getting with the muthaf*ckin program. If you're a Jeezy fan you can now get a little closer to the rap star through his new website. You already know I got the information for y'all below.
The new site is called USDA2DAY.com and it's on the hugely popular member site Ning. Jeeyz's new site is a completely interactive website where fans can come together to create member profiles, obtain exclusive CTE material, and keep yourself abreast of everything Jay Jenkins.
I have been shouting from the proverbial rooftop that today's artists need to get with it with establishing their online presence and it seems that CTE got the message. Block Entertainment is also getting the message as they are actively taking their internet game to the next level.
Note to all industry heads who are trying to get on this new media sh*t. Ya boy Gyant got some ideas. This is what I do! Holla at me if you are serious about the internet. It's not a game.
But Moving Right Along......
A week ago I had the pleasure of meeting legendary producer No ID. For those of you who don't know this dude has been in the game for a long time and has worked with virtually everybody who's anybody in the game.
And if that isn't enough, he's the one who mentored Kanye West. Sh*t, that alone makes him apart of hip-hop royalty. You already know I got some video for you all to check out. The common denominator I find between today's youth is their lack of willingness to work and educate themselves on their trade.
How many aspiring producers do you know? I know lots, but they really don't know the first thing about real production and that's where No ID is going to come in. For the next four weeks I will be brining you all a weekly series with the famous producer who's worked with everyone from Jay-Z to Common.
Check out the video and become more familiar with No ID.
[Our Site Is Acting Up Today, SOHH Check Back For The Video -- Sorry].
Wait until y'all hear who he passed up on working with. For that I'm going to need you to come back next week.
Talk to y'all lata,

good blog Gyant...No I.D. has been putting out good music for a long time..there's a difference between a beatmaker and a producer...he's a producer...
and yeah, the internet is more popular than t.v. now...more interactive...no more coming home and watching t.v. for me unless it's cnn or sportscenter...
Check out the Brand spanking new show “Studio Talk†on myspace.com/Prophet860 where Prophet brings you to Signature Sounds studio to chop it up with legendary producer NO ID. This is the show where your favorite producers as well as up coming producers discuss different topics RAW & UNCUT. This weeks episode features NO ID discussing Pop music Polotics. “Studio Talk†only on Myspace.com/Prophet860
EVEN WITHOUT MENTORING KANYE...NO ID IS HIP HOP ROYALTY!! DUDE PRODUCED OR CO-PRODUCED SOME OF HIP HOP CLASSICS...NO ID AND J DILLA(RIP) DEFINITELY SHOULD GET RECOGNIZED FOR THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS TO HIP HOP
Producers listen up!....a legend is speaking.
No ID is the truth!

GYANT - you know JACK SHIT about "New Media" - a record label sigining up for a free social networking service doesn't make them cutting edge. I feel sorry for anyone who pays you for an idea.
I have to agree with BillGates: Ning is far from avant garde.
