Aiight lemme see if i got that song. Imma try to load it up tonight on yousendit.com. I'm pretty sure i either got it on a record or my cousins already downloaded it. Bare with me since i have dial up. I'll post the link here.

[tone_aot]

Sorry don't have that song. This is what i got:

Dancing on the ceiling, SE LA, Ballerina Girl, Don't Stop, Deep River Woman, Love will conquer all, Tonight will be alright, Say You Say Me, Can't slow down, All Night Long, Penny Lover, Stuck on You, Love will find a way, The only one, Running with the night, Hello.

Choose one and holla back and then i'll record it and post it. Let's get it poppin!!

[Noddy301]

my .02 cents use All Night long son...then again just an opinion

[DesertEase]

Tone i say since you are the supplier you should choose the song you see fit and we will battle with it (all night long) is a good song though

[tone_aot]

All night long it is!! And like reek, i'll include a few drum samples in the kit also. I'll upload it tonight after i get off work.

[Call Me Cell]

cool, this should be a fun contest. If the deadline is friday, i'll be ready by friday. good luck and happy producing to all. JUST MAKE IT HOT

[tone_aot]

The deadline for friday is for the beat battle that reek setup. This one will have a deadline for next friday.

[tone_aot]

Library was closed tonight guys. Tried to come home and send the kit by dial up. That thing said 5 hours and 57mins!!!! I started to let it download over night but i'm not too keen on leaving my computer(with all my beats) fired up all night and being a sitting duck for viruses. Imma have to send it tommorow mornin. Sorry for the delays. I put the whole song in the kit(never realized it was so long!!!) and i put a bunch of drum samples so they'll be some diversity.

[tone_aot]

Here's the link! This one is due next friday. Enjoy!
