Uplift is another neo-classic from roughly 20-years, and it is one of the three song set -- "Ology" being part of it, on my page below; as well the classic, "Dope Pretenders," I believe it was -- which I recorded with the mighty John Wang, mixing it up like the mastermind he is, at Supa Dave's place, a little square apartment in northern P-town at the time. I remember after he began the first chorus, I went to push a button or turn a knob (for some reason now lost to time) and I accidentally hit the EFX switch right around as said "For the faces that are fake," and the feedback rang out crazy in that little apartment. Dave, being the pro he his, was unperturbed by the accidental dub. And, for what it's worth, I kind of wish that effect was replicated on each additional chorus. Regardless of studio accidents and experimental wishes, I feel this is one of those track I got to record where Dave is at his finest as a lyricist, representing the hip hop message at home, in the car, at work, in the party, and/or wherever. Always remember to Uplift.
