MP3: Brisco f/ Kevin Rudolph - "Stay Here Tonight"
Here is a brand new Brisco record featuring Kevin Rudolph. The song is called "Stay Here Tonight." Produced by Mr. Beats. Look out for that 'Street Medicine' album dropping soon.
It's not often that I personally co-sign many records but I have to admit Dollphace has an undeniable hit with this one. This record is a Rhythmic & Top 40 smash without any questions. Snoop Dogg adds additional value to the track and couldn't have delivered any better on the record. We sent this out a few weeks ago and now we are officially impacting mixshows and getting great early support. I've included the complete service pack for download that has all versions plus the instrumental.
Featuring performances by Emilio Rojas, Laws, Phil Ade, Aleon Craft, The Kickdrums, Johnny Spanish, The Illz, Neako, Sapient, J The S, Jon, Hope, Intuition, Famecity Boiz, Evil Ebenezer and The Chicharons
