The Tweets Is Watching: A Story To Tell

March 10, 2010

During my Tweets Is Watching: B.I.G. Edition I sparked a conversation between “A Story To Tell” producer Buck Wild & Matt Fingaz. It was through their back and forth tweeting that I discovered what some industry vets know, that “A Story To Tell’ was almost the greatest story never told, no Saigon. Here’s a few of the tweets that were exchanged.

The Tweets Is Watching: B.I.G. Edition

March 10, 2010

So it started this during the early hours of March 9th, randomly asking some of our favorite producers what their favorite B.I.G. beats are. I couldn’t let this day pass with out honoring the late great Christopher Wallace in some fashion. Here are the responses from some of the industry’s top producers and the up & coming. Rest In Peace BIG!

He was real, real picky with the beats though. Even in the early stages, he wasn’t just jumpin’ on anything. I can still hear that voice ‘Come on Mo, don’t be holdin out on me. Where them joints?‘”-Easy Mo Bee

I know that the whole world is in Biggie mode over the Notorious movie so before the holidays I caught up with Mr. Wallace’s first producer, Easy Mo Bee. I had a great talk with Mo Bee several years ago for that 10th Anniversary Biggie cover I wrote for The Source (where’s my money???) so I was happy that he was doing interviews again in advance of the film.

Of course I took advantage and got an hours worth of convo beyond the film drama (how you not gonna have Mo Bee involved in a movie about Biggie???). So I’m gonna do a whole week’s worth of Mo Bee clips cuz we spoke about the influence of Marley Marl, how he met Tupac, producing for the RZA, his first turntables and too much stuff for me to transcribe.
