This track was created in 2010-2011, winter. I was in the studio recording with Atomic, Manny came by, he called over Jose and some of his boys. As usual a cypher breaks out, but tonight there were other musicians who wanted to create a track, so someone jumps on the drums(forgive me if i forgot his name, it was late and we were drinking), manny on keys, and I just worked the tables and board. While the beat is being made, Atomic, Manny and Jose start rhyming and writing to it. Next, we are tracking the beat, and laying their vocals down. Manny and Atomic went with what they wrote. I remember it was late, we didn't have time to record Jose and he wanted to go back and pen something special. We were just having fun, jamming out, and recording a quick song idea about it being "official". Everything was recorded that night, then arranged and sequenced in protools. A few days later Jose came back and recorded his verse with something he wrote. I was blown away, as I never really heard anything written by him. Atomic set the track off, Manny let you know wus up, and then Jose just finished it right. Easily my favorite part of the song, thats the part where the track turns raggaeton-ish, and I want to get down and dance. I feel like there should be a whole choreography section when that part hits. The track was created in pure fun. I don't know exactly what category to put this one is in but the love category, because thats what created it. The love for life, rhythm, and music. RIP Jose. You will live forever in our hearts and in these airwaves… Here it is "Its Official" featuring Atomic, Manny Biz, And Raggae Ton Don aka Jose Chevere. Produced by all the gods in the room, and all the the lyrics are written by the mcs themselves.
