It
is said that in collaboration, the nature of art is revealed; this holds true
for many successful partnerships. In the
coming together of Logiq Pryce and DJ Outkast aka The Cut Creator, a hit song
was not only produced but art in its truest, most brilliant form, was revealed.
INCREDIBLE, the first single
from Logiq’s upcoming The Salute Mixtape Volume 1: Hosted by
Walshy Fire, is enjoying two (2) very important firsts. It is the first time that LogiQ,
surprisingly, has produced a song for himself and it is also the first time DJ
Outkast is featured on a major record release on iTunes.
DJ
Outkast knew at a very young age that music would be his life. A native of St. Maarten, he has made his mark
throughout the Caribbean, Europe and the US and has worked with a long and
impressive list of the biggest names in music, film and entertainment such as Beenie
Man, Ludacris, Keyshia Cole, Jr. Gong, Ja Cure, Alison Hinds, T.O.K, Bill
Bellamy, Kristin Cavallari, Kid Capri, Rukus, Cut Killer, Jabba; to name a
few. DJ Outkast is signed on and a part
of Top Gunners and Shadyville DJ’s along with Shadyville/Aftermath & G
Unit.
Always
tactical and purposeful in his music collaborations, LogiQ wrote INCREDIBLE in 2011 but failed to
release it as he felt the song had to have the right cuts. It needed to have that old-school hip hop
feel. Without these elements, he theorized
the song “not ready”. However, in 2012, he had a moment of clarity and knew
instantly that DJ Outkast was the correct fit and could bring the vibe to the
song that he was looking for.
When
LogiQ made contact with DJ Outkast to execute the Cuts for the song, he was
more than favourable to being a part of the project. The rest as they say is history.
Strategic
planning, on the part of LogiQ however, was not complete. When the time came for the track to be mixed
and mastered, there was no question that Omari Harrigan of Chosen Sounds,
Antigua (with whom LogiQ has worked
successfully over the years) would have carried out the job
brilliantly.
INCREDIBLE is a definite
‘must listen-must have’ track and is available for download on iTunes. Plans to Shoot a Music Video are being
finalized.
