During last year I did some work on Vertigo films Latest Movie, Street Dance 3D.

We had the Cast and Crew Viewing yesterday, and WOW!

Its a great movie I am not gonna add my personal review of the movie, I want people to go out and check it out…..

I got 6 tracks in it and probably one of the most Famous of my Street Dance Tracks Ethnic,

(Lots of people don’t know I made this!!)

Ethnic Snippet

Funny Story however….

It came to the Grand Finale which I produced, and they missed out the Snare from the whole piece!!

LOL

Lets hope the Snare makes the films soundtrack!! Tee Hee

So I was on the phone the other day with a Mate of mine (Mr Sandy) and we were talking about this new “genre” of music that seems to be getting into the Hiphop and RnB world…

Now he asked me what do you think it is, I said I don’t even know what to call it….
The Fact that this music is pretty much throw away music not classics like say Biggie “One More Chance”

He goes “I think its disrespect!” “Yeah thats the name.“Disrespect!!”

So I had to start this!

What tracks do you think need to go into this Genre?

At the time we were talking about this track ….

Iyaz – Replay from Leon on Vimeo.

So join in, what needs to go into this new Genre?
