Homey/singer/songwriter, Jesse Boykins III drops off his first single from “Love Apparatus“. I must say that Mr. Boykins mastered this song. Love how he re-arranged the melody and structure of the whole entire song. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did.

A few words from Jesse himself:
“In Honor of Andre 3000 & The Isley Brothers, I decided to finally produce & record the song I’ve been using to start my live set for the past year. It also marks the end of a great summer filled with love & new experiences. Definitely a thank you to all my believers and supporters. Hope you find your Prototype in 2010. Special thanks to MeLo-X & Trae Harris for being on the wave with me.”

The lonely stoner last night in Hollywood for the Sunset Strip Music Festival performed two new songs off his upcoming album. The first song above is called Ghost. Hit the break for the other track which title is unknown. Here’s what he had to say about “Ghost”: This song was one of the last couple jams I did for the album. I was really kinda goin’ threw a time where I was lookin’ at all the shit that had happened to me the past year n a half, people I’ve met, places I’ve been, shit I’ve been gettin’ myself into and just thinking; man like whats the end point? how do I feel after all this shit, was it worth it type thing, you know? This jam is really about that and it’s called Ghost. “Man on the Moon 2: The Legend of Mr. Rager” October 26th.

I don’t mind if this song gets a new feature, a new beat, a new title, i’m liking it. These young money kiddies had twitterville thinking they got hitched! But they’re just ‘married to the game’.
