The big posse cut ‘Syllables’ leaked two days ago much to the surprise of the fans and artists featured on the track. Shady artist Ca$his remembers the recording session at Dre’s studio and tells the story to VIBE.
‘Syllables’ was cut a couple of years ago, around the end of 2007. I think it was going to be for one of Emâs albums or Detox. When we first recorded it, the hook wasnât even the same. It went something like âHappy BirthdayâŚâ But when I heard it this time, I thought it was ridiculous and even better.
I laid my part at Dreâs studio with Stat, 50, and Em. I heard that Jay had just left when I got there. Fif’ was there kicking his verse in another room when I did mine. I was more so excited than intimidated because I already had held my own with Em, and I think they believed in me this time. After I kicked my verse, Em, Dre, and 50 all said it was dope. That was the cosign I needed. I learned more from that session than any other before that.â
