Mannie Fresh is one of the most well known and respected producers in the game. He was responsible for almost all of Cash Money Records early hits. "Bling Bling," "The Block Is Hot," "Go DJ," "Ha," "Back That Azz Up" and countless other songs that put the record label on the map were all produced by Mannie. Now a free agent the New Orleans native might have found a new recording home.
He sat down with HipHopDX recently to talk about his future plans. While he was hesitant to reveal too much, he did mention that he has been in talks with Kanye West G.O.O.D Music label.
DX: Going back to that [tour] clip, you’re seen in there giving a nice little motivational speech to the G.O.O.D. Music fam. So does this mean you’re officially G.O.O.D. Music in-house yourself now?
Mannie Fresh: Well, we working that out. I’m kind of funny about signing with people. Dude, I’ve been through so much. And I’m not saying I think Kanye is a bad person, but I can’t tell you what that is right now. It’s really on me, and what space I’m in. I’m not saying that I wouldn’t do it, but it’s gotta be something that makes sense for me.
DX: Was any sort of formal offer put forward, or any extending of the hand saying “If you want to, come on”?
Mannie Fresh: I can’t really say if [there was]. It’s one of them things where – Let me just put it like this, Kanye is kinda mysterious about the things that he do. And I can’t really let no cats out the bag. I’m sorry to give you an answer like that, but I can’t really say what’s in the works. Y’all just gotta wait to see what happens.
