2932825, he never stopped producing and ghost work Posted by mistermaxxx08, Sun May-24-15 12:19 PM
he gave madonna tracks which weren't used however he got paid.
did a smoking track from what i've been told for Michael Jackson and it remains unreleased which was for the invincible project.
he wasn't just all on the sidelines.

2932844, Well I know Devante produced tracks for 2Pac around the same time Posted by C. Thelonius, Sun May-24-15 02:54 PM
Or at least I remeber No More Pain being my shit back then. I guess I can't think of what else he produced for him off the top.

2932869, y'all talkin' bout them immediate yrs post jodeci for the most part Posted by gilmore happy, Mon May-25-15 03:31 AM
i'm talkin' bout the years from like 98' all the way up to like 2012
i don't believe for one second that all devante and dalvin was only doing was sitting around and getting high.
there had to be some music being made in between them being on some rick james stuff. i would find it hard to believe that they ain't write or produce stuff for themselves or others

2932946, Dalvin worked a lot with Tim & Bob Posted by Ray_Snill, Tue May-26-15 08:53 AM
playing drums and ghost-producing some of their stuff

To go from being a well know artist/producer to ghost producing for cats.

2934009, see, that's what i'm sayin'. there's a huge gap of time where there's nothin' Posted by gilmore happy, Wed Jun-03-15 02:13 PM
i don't believe for a second that for 10 years he ain't write or produced nothin'; whether it be ghostwritten or ghost produced
i wonder what his vault of music is like. devante gotta have a ton of great music that's been unreleased
i still remember this footage from that k-ci and jojo dvd
i liked the rock direction devante was goin' with whatever song this is

2934224, no music at all? not even like half baked written songs or produced songs? Posted by gilmore happy, Thu Jun-04-15 11:58 PM
i'm sure he got his own home studio. no doubt those guys were hooked on drugs but to not to ANY music for 10 years straight when for many musicans and or artists that's like breathing. i'd have a hard time believing he ain't write or produce nothing. i bet his half baked written and or produced songs from those years take a huge shit on the music of today too.
|
2934234, i believe there was a stretch of time during which Posted by SoWhat, Fri Jun-05-15 06:03 AM
Devante and Dalvin didn't participate in the creation of music that has been released for consumption by the general public via mainstream music channels.

2934229, RE: when k-ci and jojo did their duo act, what was devante and dalvin doing? Posted by melanon, Fri Jun-05-15 02:19 AM
DeVante was forced to drink urine and anally raped by Suge's goons. I think Dalvin watched.
|
2934231, what the hell? i think that's just a rumor Posted by gilmore happy, Fri Jun-05-15 02:50 AM
however i do remember the story about the home invasion where devante was robbed
