Rashid Hadee (of Chapter 13) To Release”Dedication” Solo Album in Japan

Neblina Records announced they have signed a deal with P-Vine Records to release Rashid Hadee's solo album, “Dedication”, exclusively in Japan. December 2, 2005 has been set as the tentative release date.

The Japanese version of “Dedication” contains 18 tracks, the majority of which were produced by Rashid Hadee. Young Valentine handles the remainder of the production. Expect to hear that vintage Chapter 13 boom-bap production reminiscent of classics such as “The Rebirth” and “Watchin' My Moves”.

A musical journey through Rashid's hometown, the beat maker/MC emphatically states, “Chicago is just like the most amazing city to me. The scenery, the people, the strive, the hunger, the hustle, the ladies, and just the emotion I peep daily from myself and other people all influence me musically and personally. Just like they say in the song “Respiration”, I can feel the city breathing. (laughs) That's real though, I just express everything through music and my everyday living…”

The talented producer has laced tracks for MCs such as Common Sense and Special Ed and has even shared production credits with fellow Chi-town native Kanye West on Abstract Mindstate's “Still Paying” album. Rashid's production credits include the gems “Watchin’ My Moves”, “Demonz” and “Do the Math” by Skinny Kenny.

A very limited amount of the Japanese version of “Dedication” will be available for sale to the U.S. public exclusively at www.neblinarecords.com. Neblina will be releasing the U.S. version of the album in the spring of 2006 and will include
bonus tracks not available on the Japanese version.
