"OFFICALLY MISSING YOU" BY TAMIA

This song is so addictive
7 Arelius have to be my favourite production team right now
they have to the best of the new crop
the stuff they are coming up with Tamia and Mariah
is in a"zone" they are like the new babyface for the new generation, real tight r&b, they are versatile like Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis

oh bt the way girl looks fine as hell in the clip, cann't wait for her new album, I didn't mind her last but her first was the best (any album with "you put a move on my heart" would be hot)

7 is actually 1 guy.And he's doing his thing. I love Subtle Invitation from Mariah. That should have been a single from Charmbraclet.

7 left the Murder Inc. team after he says Irv was taking credit for stuff he produced.

7 is the one who really started putting murder inc. on the map musicallly. You see after he left that they have had limited success aka JARULE

It's a great song. Best song I've heard all year.I had the pleasure of hearing it for the first time while I watched the video for the first time. My God she looks great.

Tamia is very underrated as a singer. Love her albums, her voice and everything else.

That song was in my head last month. I was constantly humming the melody to that song. Tamia's a cool artist.

Love it.
I am convinced Beyonce's career would not be where it is, if she had dark skin.

The video needs to be seen, she's so beautiful
Her voice and her ass, makes for great viewing and listening
I hope this album is succesfull for her, she could really clean up, she can play the the video hoe as good as "jlo, beyonce" but can blow them out the water with her voice

Trickology

7 Aurelius background:

A little info on 7 Aurelius that I learned about reading articles
His Real name is Marcus Vest
He won a michael jackson imitation contest when he was little
He is in music because Prince inspired him to be in it.
Some of his favorite acts are The Doors,Prince,Led Zeppelin
He has a clothing line.
He is on the new upcoming Patti labelle record
He is on the new upcoming Britney Spears record
He is on the upcoming Janet record
Jimmy Jam considers him one of the next
He just signed Aurelius Records to Def Jam for Distribution this past may.

He has a movie in the works with Tyrin Turner from Menace 2 Society about his life
He is big into Marcus Aurelius the emperor's philosophy
He believes "7" has a significance for him. He is the 7th Child in a family
His solo album will be the soundtrack to his film
He has a different fashion sense like Prince
He plays guitar,bass.keys,drums
He got his start at Rapalot records as a in house producer
He beat out all contenders for in house job at Murder Inc in a track battle. He flew out to NY when Irv Gotti didnt call him back and made his big break happen by storming in the studio unannounced. Gotti liked his guts and challenged ALL of his producers in the studio against 7 Aurelius at that moment. The challenge was nothing recorded already. Make it now or lose your spot.
He made them on the spot in a studio so Gotti could see if he could take the pressure. 7 killed everyone in the studio that day when they saw what he could do as a musician/producer.
After

Officially Missing You" was written many years ago when 7 was homeless he gave the song to Tamia because she was the perfect voice for it

He worked as a dishwasher and in a guitar shop.
He was in the church band and music classes the star student...


7 Claims he wears the number 7 alot because its supernatural to him.
Everything his success he says can be attributed to that number
Jamie Foxx got him out of Kentucky when he said he had what it takes to be a success in the entertainment industry.
His solo album will have alot of guitars on it
His first artist is a girl named "The Letter M" which will be the first debut on Aurelius Records
His work ethic is well known among his peers
After High School it took him ten 10 years to get the producer heading for those type of artists
He is Known as "King of the Divas" because he worked with Mariah,Janet and Whitney and Patti already. Can you say-destined.
He is 6'3.
7 Left Murder Inc because he saw after 2 years he wasnt getting credited properly.
7 wants to be more than a fad he wants to work with everybody different in music
He wants more to be a star producer than a solo artist
Everytime Aurelius steps out he is wearing something different.
Taking a cue from Prince he has a 7 on his cheek scrawled on it.
7's message for people who are in his spot right now in music industry is never give in because even at the darkest of times he believed he would be there.


2003:7 is setting up his label so Def Jam can get behind his first artist. "The Letter M"
a female vocalist...
Filming a DVD
Planning to shoot his film about his life

That is what is known about 7 Aurelius
