This song is Outasight !!

I'm not too sure if anyone is familiar with the artist Richard Andrew, or better known by his stage name - Outasight.

I've been really listening to this one song of his, and it's prompted me to really share some details about Outasight. To really add a bit of history so that you can really get a bit of depth of him. From a wiki search I've found;

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Richard Andrew was born in Yonkers, New York. With a mother who decorated the walls with records, and a father who played the guitar, Andrew was surrounded by music his entire life. Growing up, his family moved from apartment to apartment, which never gave him a real sense of home. He turned to music to offer him solace and a sense of home. At the age of 9, his father gave him a guitar, and although he did not have much interest in playing the guitar, it sparked his interest in becoming a musician. He found his passion in singing and rap, and began writing rhymes and singing around age 10.

The song that I've really been listening to is Outasight's - Now Or Never. Seriously, this is one beat that I find to be really inspiring, and motivating. It seems to remind me of a sound that you'd almost hear in the 80's, but mixed with a sweet ass groove

from now. Now Or Never - has a beat that you can't help but bounce too. I found that Outasight, and the sound mixer really had a target audience in mind. And, it shows that this song is aimed at the club floors. Honestly I'd have to rank this song as an "A" song - I'd start a set with this, or I'd use it to build more energy in the club. Lyrically the "hook" is;

"So we don’t care what the people say and we don’t care what they want to do and we don’t care about it anymore we do what we want I ain’t wasting a no more time its now or never I’m about to get mine It’s now or never I’m about to get mine It’s now or never" [Lyrics provided from directlyrics.com]

Seriously it's this hook that really captures the attitude, and energy of the song. Now Or Never really builds up in energy, and intensity the more you listen to it you'll notice that it's infectious. The low end audio spectrum of this track is just awesomely put together because it has this sound which makes you want to bounce. It's that bounce that you really want, and now that the days of making the song skip are over you can just let loose with this one.

I found that Outasight's vocals are somewhat reminiscent of Flo Rida in this song, but then he adds this beautiful haunting vocal with his "woahhhooooo woahhhoooo woahhhoooo" - it's this part of the song that somehow reminds me of something you'd hear back in the 80's. And I LOVE that! Then, another aspect of this song that I love is the "hook" definitely now that most dj equipment can quantize the beats, this can be cut up over, and over to build it up to an even higher peak. You'd want to cut up the end of the "hook" - "I'm about to get mine - It's now or never" looping this a bit, and then cutting up the loop little by little to use "It's now or never" then cutting the loop up some more - I can really see an energy being created that will just bring up the reaction of your crowd, and then you "slam it" loose!

Goddamn I'm excited just thinking about it!!! That should tell you something right there. I've picked some of "Now Or Never" apart, and hell I've even given you some inspiration of what you'd like to work with, I've done part of your work for you! Which right there should be a "no brainer" for you.

I have to give a mad shout out to Outasight for creating "Now Or Never" because the time to really introduce a new artist to your crowd honestly, the timing couldn't be any better. This song can definitely quickly become an anthem of it's own, it just needs the right people behind this, and I am a firm believer that as a DJ it's up to us to get behind new artists to help them break into new markets so that they can be a little bit closer to reaching their dreams of success.

Bang this one - Bang this LOUD - and always - Bang it PROUD ! ! !

Yours truly,
