Raphael Saadiq feat. Jay-Z - ‘Oh Girl (remix)’
Just leaked, this is my new favorite song, the vibe and everything. I like the authentic, classic sound of the instrumentation— apparently they did that by not plugging in the instruments directly into the pro-tools but by just micing up all of the individual pieces. I also enjoy this story:
Me: How did Hov get on this indie neo-soul record?
Him: Raph played the original for Q-Tip. Tip called Jay and told him he had to hear the record. Jay loved it and did 16 (bars).I promise I won’t let you down
I’m gonna make you so proud
I’ll keep your heart next to mine
And I’ll be everything you need
Believe me girlSo good.
One of my new faves. Saadiq can sing.
