Video: Fabolous Talks Jay-Z Relationship, “When The Money Goes”
“Me and Jay built a connection through Def Jam. Through working together executive to artist [when Jay was Def Jam president], we built a different relationship as well. Maybe artist to artist we was in a little different space. You didn’t know where each other was at. We work well. When I needed help with the [new] album and I was reaching out for people for joints for the album, he was one of the people that was like, ‘Hear this.’ That’s where that joint came from. We got a connection. He’s from Brooklyn, I’m from Brooklyn — that’s enough of a connection right there.”Look for a “Loso’s Way” movie to come with the album when it drops July 28.
“We came up with the songs first,” he said. “I made the songs to the scenario I thought of. Then I wrote a story [for a film]. Even when I was writing the story, I could hear certain songs coming up in those scenarios, in those scenes. That’s why it meshed well.”
After the jump, video of a Detroit radio interview.

Fab is always good on dropping a hit every summer. The thing is he always has whomever is hot at the time in the RandB world singing his hooks. His only hit song dolo was BREATHE

relationship? if a relationship is considered patterning yourself after another person’s footsteps . . . then, yes.
