She Loves Everybody
By now "She Loves Everybody" by Chester French, has seen way too much airtime, but I appreciate the fresh sound these guys from Boston bring to the table. They are a class act, doing there own thing, and that deserves respect in itself. Too many artists these days sound the same. Chester French, the two fellas out of Cambridge, MA have been making a name for themselves. The young dynamic duo of, D.A. Wallach and Max Drummey are signed to Pharrell’s label, Star Trak/Interscope,. Currently they are touring all over the place with Pharrell’s band, N.E.R.D and Common, among others. Chester French teamed up with globally renowned DJ, producer, innovator, Clinton Sparks, on a star-studded mixtape called, Get Familiar with Chester French: Jaques Jams Vol. 1: Endurance, free for download. Endurance is a collection of original tracks, all written, arranged, produced, and engineered by the duo.
The group has acquired a growing celebrity buzz since Love The Future was recorded, so the new Jacques Jams raises the bar, with guest artists like Diddy, Jermaine Dupri, Pharrell, Monáe, Bun B, Talib Kweli , The Clipse, Lady Gaga, and more. The mixtape is a musical masterpiece, produced very well, but you shouldn't expect anything less from guru, Clinton Sparks.
Jacques Jams, Vol. 1: Endurance is unlike a traditional mix-tape wherein a DJ chops up a bunch of new records and throws them on a CD. Clinton Sparks once again has taken mixtapes to a new level complete with skits and interludes that humorously get you familiar with Chester French's story, from Max and D.A.'s freshman year at Harvard to their signing with Star Trak/Interscope records after hip-hop heavyweights like Kanye West competed to sign them in one of the biggest bidding wars in music industry history.
