Tokyo Cigar: The Remix P. Diddy Invented It Tokyo Directed

KevinNottingham.com fam Tokyo Cigar stays working and banging out tracks.  Over the last year he has entered all of our exclusive Remix Contest and dropped three projects during this time span (The 9 Diagram Phoenix, The 7-Day Theory, and Snares and Cinema).  We initially posted this in the Inbox, but it deserves its own post.  Hit the cut to see what Tokyo has to say about the project…

“Here’s the new project.  I was watching this you tube clip with Diddy and he dropped so many jewels about making AN ALBUM (not a random collection of songs kids) that I had to base a project around it.   This is the the first time I’ve made a joint where I go back and forth between original stuff and samples. Since I started sampling (like a year ago) I normally just do all one style or the other but I really wanted to use these beats on one project so I was like “why not?”  Certain cats have heard these instrumentals before some were from contests and some were from collaborations that got caught up in red tape. I felt these joints were banging but I didn’t want to rhyme on em cause I wanted to focus my rhymes on my solo album.  Production is varied between rugged hard joints, cool out beats and club ready tracks.”
