Drake - Forever (Hedspin Rap Edit)

This version came out more raw sounding than the original. I took out the hook and focused more on the rap. I didnt include Em's verse because - 1. His flow was just too crazy for this beat and 2. I had to take out one rapper on the CD artwork so I could include myself on it : )

You're Not My Girl - Illo Remix

As most of you probably don't know, Ryan Leslie is one of my favorite pop/rnb producers out there, and i have always played his songs in my sets. Just for fun i took one of his newer joints and tried to re-create it for a more uptempo remix. I think it turned out great, and figured i'd share it with the rest of y'all.

2 versions available - Full Vocal & Dub.
