MUSIC NEWS: SWIZZ BEATZ ON PRODUCING LIL WAYNE'S "DR.CARTER"

As Rap Basement preveiously published, there was an acappella version of Lil Wayne's "Dr Carter" a few weeks ago. Recently Swizz Beatz told MTV that if you loved that rhyme for "Dr. Carter" that Lil Wayne kicked, you will undoubtedly bang your head through a wall once you hear the finished song. "I was like, 'Why the f--- they putting [an] a cappella [version] out?' " Swizz, the producer of the song, said. He noted how Web sites have picked up the exclusive audio Wayne gave Mixtape Monday. "That 'Dr. Carter,' I made [the beat] for Hov to save the game. He vibed with it, but he didn't jump on it. I was like, 'Hov Carter.' 'Wayne Carter.' It still works." Swizzy says the actual beat has an old-school vibe, but you'll hear all types of hospital sound effects, including flat lines.

Just months after Drag-On dropped his independent release, Hood Environment, Drag-On has officially signed with Swizz Beatz’ Full Surface family.

After years of being out of the spot light, Drag-On has been popping up with new freestyles as well as a recent guest appearance on Swizz Beatz’ latest album, One Man Band Man, for Bust Ya Gunz.

Heading his own label, Hood Environment, the New York rapper has big plans for the future. “This will give me a chance to bring in new talent and give others a chance to shine as well. My label is gonna be 100% with hard music for the streets. This time I’m the CEO and I know what the people want. Hood Environment the CD in stores now! Swizz Beatz CD in stores now! Cassidy coming!

NEW ARTIST: ESTELLE / R&B AT IT'S BEST...

Talk about BRITISH INVASION... Another young lady has caught our attention over here at N.M.F., and will be hitting the American Charts in no time… we are raving over Ms. Estelle, a newly signed artist under the incomparable John Legend and his label “Homeschool Records.” Estelle attributes her sound to West Africa and the West Indies, and growing up some in London. Look for beats from Swizz Beatz, Kanye West, Ceelo, Will.I.Am and Mark Ronson to groove to on her sophomore album entitled “Shine.” According to MTV, John Legend is in NYC, overseeing creative to Estelle’s latest video and will hopefully make a cameo in there to set her off right…judging from the tracks we just heard, this chick is poised to blow…heads up for the first single called “Wait A Minute (Just A Touch)” in November, and the album to hit streets in February…
