New Music: D-sisive feat. Heidi Happy "Why"

Dsisive 5

Seen at HHC!

Taken from Do Right Music’s Blog:

“One of our favourite Hip-Hop albums of the year has to be D-Sisive’s ‘Let The Children Die’ (Urbnet). First, he got the Juno Award nod, then came the Polaris Music Prize’s long-list, and most recently, SOCAN’s Echo Songwriting Award nomination for his single ‘Nobody With A Notepad’. D-Sisive is on every critics list and every chart out there.

When he came by the Do Right! HQ one day to tell us how much he loves Heidi Happy’s ‘Flowers, Bird, And Home’ album, we didn’t expect him to return with a duet version of ‘Why’!

“All it took was one listen and I was instantly in love with ‘Why’. The lyrics are so harsh, yet delivered so beautifully. I had to do something with it. I’m known to get personal with my music, but have never had the opportunity to write about relationships. This was the perfect opportunity,” said D-Sisive.

Augmented by a powerful back-beat produced by Muneshine, D-Sisive’s verses flow effortlessly between Heidi’s chorus, transforming the song into a powerful duet of lost love from two points of view.”

Drake up for 7 Grammy PRE-Nominations

hyperadmin | News | Saturday, October 3rd, 2009


From Allthings-fresh.net!

Before I get I let all the details out, I’m going to explain what a Grammy pre-nomination is:

A Grammy pre-nomination is a list of recordings that are submitted by record companies and individuals. Those songs are displayed in a list where they are voted to actually be an official nominee for whichever category. It’s kind of like the elections with a ballot voting system. The nomination and final voting processes requires that members vote only in their fields of expertise. The 5 recordings that earn the most votes become the nominees. So Drake has been listed 7 times in that list under 5 different categories. That means he hasn’t been nominated yet but there’s chances that he may be! The general public can’t vote but like we stated above, it is members of the Recording Academy(over 150 experts from the recording industry) who will be able to vote. Let’s hope the best for Drake! 7 Grammy Pre-Nominations without an album? That’s insane! Check out the categories & recordings nominated below.

1. Best Rap Solo Performance
a) Drake – Best I Ever Had

2. Best Rap/Sung Collab
a) Mary J. Blige ft. Drake – The One
b) Young Money – Every Girl
c) Drake & Trey Songz – Successful

3. Best Rap Song
a) Drake – Best I Ever Had

4. Record of the Year
a) Drake – Best I Ever Had

5. Song of the Year
a) Drake – Best I Ever Had
