Although The Source
Magazine reported it, Special Ed, the veteran
Brooklyn, New York rapper, won’t be an artist signed to Dogghouse Records, Snoop
Dogg’s label, Allhiphop.com has discovered.
"Before, we
did discuss some things [about him signing with Snoop], but time evolves and
everybody advances," he said. The rapper said that he would be working
on a forthcoming compilation album Snoop was working on.
"Snoop is
my homey. We just did a song together. Its called ‘Don’t Make A Wrong Move’
and it’ll be on his All-Stars Album coming out in August," he said.
He said that being
in the game since 1988 has cause him to assume a more business-like role and
has created SEMI Entertainment, which will release his comeback album, Still
Got It Made.
He would also drop
other albums from artists like Shillz and Forty on SEMI.
In 1989, Special
Ed’s first album, Youngest In Charge, yielded the smash “I
Got It Made.” He eventually dropped two other albums, Legal and
Revelations, which were also well received by critics.
After feeling his
deal with Profile Records was financially unfair, he refused to record with
the indie label, once home to Run DMC.
As a producer,
Ed has produced songs for Tupac, Biggie Smalls/Junior Mafia and Thirston Howl
III.
Still Got It
Made
is slated to drop in September of 2002 on SEMI Entertainment and distributedby Universal/ J-Rock.
