Ron Browz revient sur l'effet "Ether"

L'un des producteurs du moment, Ron Browz, raconte comment il a réussi à donner un de ces beat CD à Nas dans lequel ce trouvait l'instru que Nas a choisie pour son titre "Ether", ce qui a lancé la carrière mainstream du producteur de Harlem.

"I was still an underground producer at that time. So any way to get to artists, I had to get to artists. I actually went through his travel agent, and his travel agent actually looked out and handed him a CD with my music on there. My manager at the time, his name is Fuzz, he knew her, they were friends and kinds she looked out. She passed him the CD.

I didn't know what he was doing with it. Actually, he held it for a couple of months, like three or four months. Then that month December 2000, he told me to come to the studio and listen to what he had did to the track. When he played the track, my mouth just dropped like, ‘Wow.’ I was thinking that being that I was a part of the record that I wasn't going to be able to work with no other artist in the game because that was Jay-Z and he was on fire at the moment.

I didn't [feel any backlash]. After that it was a domino effect. I started to work with all the artists. All the artists wanted to know who produced that track for him, so actually it catapulted my career."
