Somebody Find "Red": Cam'ron and Snoop Dogg Make Song From Homeless Guy's Youtube Hit
So there’s a homeless singer and beatboxer named Red who was hanging out outside the HVW8 Art + Design Studio in L.A. a couple years ago, trying to get his music to rap producer Warren G. The HVW8 guys videotaped him doing his thing and youtubed it. (It sounds much like the beat Timbaland made for Ginuwine’s “Pony.”) A year and a half later, his performance has been watched 625,000 times-and now, rap stars Cam’ron and Snoop Dogg have made a song out of it. And everybody’s looking for Red, so he can get paid.
