Next up for an ARTIST YOU SHOULD KNOW is one of my favorite, Shawn Chrystopher. Shawn hails all the way from Inglewood, California and got major attention from his debut mixtape “I.W.G.: I Wear Glasses” in 2008. The mixtape was sponsored by LRG clothing line. He released his first LP ” A City With No Seasons” in 2009 after his “I.W.G.2: I Wear Glasses 2″ project. In 2010, he released “The Audition EP” along with DJ Mick Boogie and Terry Urban. He released his third LP, “You, And Only You” in late 2010. Over the years, he has worked with many popular artists including: XV, Mike Posner, Big Sean and Owl City. His next project, “Silent Films for The Blind” comes out September 13th. Check out mixtapes and videos after the jump and make sure you follow Shawn Chrystopher on Twitter HERE.

Drake Talks Sound & Stevie Wonder Collaboration On “Take Care”

Aug31st

In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, Drake has talked the sound of Take Care in detail. He has also spoken about his expected release strategy, how many tracks we can expect on the album, Stevie Wonder collaboration, his close team and more. Take Care is due out on October 24th, his birthday.

I know you can’t confirm producers and features yet since the album isn’t done. But I have read that Stevie Wonder’s a role on the album as a writer. Am I right?
Less writing and more music. The only person I really wrote with is Abel. We have a bond with words. Getting the right words is like a euphoric feeling. There are a lot of records that we collaborated on. With Stevie it was a musical thing. I had a song that’s very powerful, it’s called “Doing It Wrong,” and Stevie boosted it to another level. 40 produced it, but Stevie has a solo on it that he plays. It’s a great piece of music.

Specifically, what did he bring to the record?
He brought life to it. I was only trying to use extremely strong R&B songs on this album if I’m going to use R&B at all. Before I’d have scattered interludes and songs where I’m experimenting with things. Here I wanted to get back to “Brand New,” “Bria’s Interlude” days. It’s going to be really tight writing and s— that’s sexy as f—. That’s my thing. I’m going to do the type of R&B I’m good at. With Stevie it’s hard for me to explain. It’s an incredible thing I witnessed that night. He heard a song that he saw some potential in and he added some key pieces that made it come to life. I’ve never played a song for people and they’ve cried and gone into their own private zone in their mind where they’re really thinking about some situations that hit home. And this song has done that for me. I’ve never seen that before. I’ve heard stories where it’s like “So and so cried when they heard this.” And I’d be like, “Yeah, okay, cool.” [Laughs] But I’ve seen people tear up listening to this song that me and Stevie did. Other than that, I just played him music for approval. That’s always reassuring, to be able to play Stevie Wonder music and have him say that it’s incredible. I think me and Stevie immediately formed a relationship where he wants to see me do well. He’s expressed to me adamantly that he wants to see me succeed. He wants to see me on the moon. It’s boosted my confidence.

T.I. To Be Released From Prison On September 29th

Tip’s attorney Jonathan Leonard has confirmed with XXL that the official date of his release from Forrest City Federal Prison in Arkansas is September 29th.

“The Bureau of Prisons they won’t give you the information [of his release] until the very last minute. The Bureau of Prisons makes all the decisions once [someone goes] into the federal system then the federal prisons is the governing body as to when he’s released, the judge has no control over it,” he explained. “And you don’t have any real contact with them, they don’t communicate with you and they don’t tell you when exactly he’s gonna be released. They don’t even cooperate with me and tell me much of anything. He’s doing great. He’s certainly looking forward to getting this behind him”
