I so sorry y’all…I’ve been holding on to this Slim of 112 interview for about 2 weeks now. *sigh* I admit it…I suck! But he and I had a lil sit down at The Grape in Atlantic Station (mmmmm Muscato!) and we chopped it up for a while. Slim’s new CD “Love’s Crazy” is on heavy rotation on the “A” pod and “So Fly” is my dayum personal theme song. He’s such a cool dude and is definitely Straight from the A…Cleveland Ave to be exact!
Slim has come a long way from the lead singer of 112. He has his own record label and now he’s calling the shots. Although he kind of disappointed me when he told me that he doesn’t speak to any of his former group members, he did say he has no ill feelings towards any of them and he’s sure they’re all doing big things.
I jumped on TWITTER and asked my followers if they had any questions for him:
iampritty@ATLien Does he blame @iamdiddy for not having any work the past 10 years?
SpaceyG@ATLien, yeah, I have a question. George Will says a rule of life is never play poker with a man named “Slim.” That true?
pooda@ATLien are u available for lunch? Tomorrow ? Maybe? Lol
JessDubb@ATLien what’s the next single
babajee@ATLien question for slim: when did you realize that your unique voice, could possibly get you a record deal?
wmicahw@ATLien didn’t know he was that close with faith evans until reading her book, what are his thoughts on “notorious” n the bad boy situation
pooda@ATLien would he consider a collab w Keri Hilson? I think their voices would mesh well
Slim answered just about everything and he held nothing back. (BTW…he’s not on twitter yet, but I’m working on it!) He talked at length about his feelings about being on Bad Boy, Diddy’s involvement in the group’s success and we even touched on his love life. Slim also revealed that that the “Heels On” (Remix) feat. Deezbo and Ron Browz is getting mad love these days on the airwaves.
Check out the full videotaped interview and also listen to the “Heels on” remix under the cut:

Love’s Crazy is in stores now. Don’t sleep on it! For real…it’s a great CD. Oh…and don’t think this is all I got from Slim. I’m saving the rest for an upcoming O.S.A.M. (Old School Atlanta Memory) post so stay tuned! Slim was off the chain!!
