G-Unit's Spider Loc Preps Indie Debut, West Kept Secret
Published: Friday - August 10, 2007
G-Unit's West Coast rider, Spider Loc, is gearing up for the release of his debut album, West Kept Secret: The Prequel -- an independent album that he hopes will set the stage for his forthcoming G-Unit album.
The first single from new album, which is being released on his independent label Baymaac through RBC Records and Koch, is the buzz worthy "Blutiful World." With high-profile guest appearances such as Ice Cube and the independent success of his clever single, Spider Loc says his album's title perfectly explains his situation.
"I wanted to represent me," Spider says. "I am the West Kept Secret and it describes me in the essence."
Ice Cube appears alongside Spider on the hardcore "Bigg Blacc Boots." Over dramatic piano stabs, Spider Loc spins an ingenious lyrical homage to Ice Cube (The two met a few years ago on the Anger Management Tour and clicked immediately).
Spider Loc is the only Los Angeles-based member of 50 Cent's G-Unit collective. He appeared on the platinum "Get Rich Or Die Tryin'" soundtrack and Tony Yayo's debut, Thoughts Of A Predicate Felon. Impressed by his lyrical acumen, Young Buck invited Spider Loc to his "Shorty Wanna Ride" video shoot in Los Angeles. While there, Spider Loc rapped for 50 Cent, who was impressed by Spider Loc's style and content. He then quickly signed him to G-Unit.
As he waits on his G-Unit debut, Spider Loc has launched his own Baymaac Music imprint, which will release West Kept Secret: The Prequel. Baymaac Music is a division of a bigger conglomerate of black entrepreneurs who have a multitude of business ventures, from an auto restoration company to a hauling business.
The album is set for release September 11.
The final tracklist is as follows:
"Spi"
"Blutiful World" - Spider Loc ft. E-Note
"Big Blacc Boots" - Spider Loc ft. Ice Cube
"Get Right Down" - Spider Loc
"Sometimes" - Spider Loc
"All I Know" - Spider Loc ft. E-Note
"Look At Me" - Spider Loc ft. E-Note
"Make You Love Me" - Spider Loc
"Russ" - Spider Loc
"Hustle To You Come Up" - Spider Loc
"Hold On" - Spider Loc
"Close To The Edge" - Spider Loc
"Crys And Cry" - Spider Loc ft. L.O.V.E.
"I Like" - Spider Loc
"Blutiful World (Re-Remix)" - Spider Loc ft. Papa Smurf & Piper
