*** BEATS/PRODUCTIONS THAT WERE MEANT FOR ANOTHER ARTISTS! ***

[we love 1989]

Just found out today that the "Shyne" featuring Mashonda track that was on Swizz's G.H.E.T.T.O. Storieswas meant for Aaliyah.

Also.. common knowledge to Neptune fans.. "You Don't Have To Call (2001)" by Usher was produced and written for Michael Jackson's comebacksingle.

Any others?

I heard Wamp Wamp was originally for Foxy Brown.

I heard "Like You'll Never See Me Again" and knew it was a blatant Prince rip-off.

Biggie-Unbelievable was made for Jeru Da Damaja then Big heard the beat and said Primo this is mines now. He then proceeded to make up a verse in 15 mins andspit over it after that it was no way Jeru could get on the beat.


Craig Mack-Flavor in your Ear was made for Biggie, Busta, or LL Cool J but they all didn't like the beat

 

[i nasmatic i]

candy shop was meant for fat joe (insert joke here

) , but he declined the beatbecause it sounded too much like lean back.
