Career [link]

His well known trademark is hollering "Ladies and Gentlemen!" at the beginning, and sometimes at the end of the tracks he has contributed to.

He made an early appearance on Erick Sermon's 1995 album Double or Nothing performing on a skit and collaborating with Sermon on "Man Above".

Jazze Pha's first hit was the club anthem from Tela, "Sho Nuff", the label banner of the producer's company.

His first production was for Gerald Levert, Keith Sweat, and Johnny Gill on supergroup LSG's first album, with the fresh "Let A Playa Get His Freak On", in 1997.

Other artists he has collaborated with include Notorious B.I.G, Nelly, Ludacris, T.I., U.G.K., Lil Wayne, Nate Dogg, Ras Kass, Trick Daddy, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Petey Pablo, Lisa "Left-Eye" Lopes, Big Boi, Ciara, Aaliyah, Girlicious and Eightball & MJG.

Pha also helped Ciara start out her career. He produced the hit single, which was titled "1, 2 Step", which featured Missy Elliott, which was included on her debut album which was named Goodies, which was released in 2004. He also produced the tracks which were called "Thug Style", "Pick Up the Phone", and "Lookin' at You". Two years later in 2006, he produced her hit single, which was called "Get Up", the song featured Chamillionaire, and was included on her album named Ciara: The Evolution. The two have not worked since then,because Pha says they have not seen eye-to-eye.

    "Deniece Williams is not Jazze Pha's mom. While chatting about the pending release of her first R&B album in more than 10 years, the Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter wants to clear up a misconception she has been hearing and reading the past two years.
    'I applaud him and his success,' Williams says of Pha, who has produced hits by Ciara and others. 'But he is not my son.'
    For the record — confirmed by Pha's dad, Bar-Kays member James Alexander — the confusion surfaced because his son's mother shares the same name as the singing Williams."
  2. ^ Tolliver, Vincent. "Jazze Pha: Behind The Music", bet.com, Music section
    "Jazze Pha has been surrounded by music all his life. His father is James Alexander, bass guitarist for the Bar Kays. His mother, Denise Williams, is an accomplished singer, having worked with everyone from Earth, Wind, and Fire to Barbra Streisand. But she is not the same Deniece Williams that R&B fanatics have come to know and love. 'Yea man straighten that out,' he says, referring to the belief that his mother is the legendary singer."

    "If you think Deniece Williams is my mom, she's not ... My mom's name is Denise Williams, and people twisted that and ran with it. Now, I get people who want to argue with me that say, 'Yeah, that is your mama!' No, it’s not."

    24 Hours and 24 Heures (sometimes abbreviated as 24H) is a chain of free daily newspapers published in Canada. A French edition is published in Montreal by Quebecor Media, while two English editions are published in Toronto and Vancouver by Postmedia (acquired from Quebecor in 2015). Editions previously published in Ottawa, Calgary, and Edmonton ceased publication in 2013.

    History

    In 2000, Metro International launched its free daily Metro newspaper in Toronto, eventually expanding with local editions across Canada. In Toronto, the Toronto Sun and Toronto Star scrambled to launch their own free dailies, Sun Media's FYI Toronto and Torstar's GTA Today. In mid-2001, GTA Today had merged with Metro and in October of the same year Sun Media ceased publication of FYI Toronto. However, as the Toronto Sun itself had been largely dependent on sales to commuters the success of Metro ate into its market share and in 2003, Sun Media re-entered the giveaway market with the launch of 24 Hours in Toronto.

    24 Hours (novel)

    24 Hours is a bestselling novel written by American author Greg Iles. It was published in 2000 by Putnam (New York). The 2002 film Trapped is based on this book.

    Plot summary

    Joe Hickey is a serial criminal working to extort money from wealthy doctors by kidnapping their children under a 24-hour ransom deadline designed to minimize police involvement. In what he decides will be his final kidnapping, he abducts Abby Jennings, child of Dr. Will Jennings, whom Joe Hickey blames for his mother's death. Abby has diabetes and her parents begin to panic that she will die if they cannot rescue her in time.

    Screenplay

    In 2002, Iles wrote the screenplay 24 Hours from his novel of the same name. This script was subsequently rewritten by director Don Roos and renamed Trapped to avoid confusion with the then-current television series, 24. At the request of the producers and actors, Iles then rewrote the script during the shoot.

    24 Hours

    by: Swans

    24 hours, split three ways.
    Because you bought one third, you own everything.
    Shut off the possibility, and wipe out the imagination.
    Now the world stands still.
    I'll take it with me to my grave.
    Wrap your hands around my neck.
    Now choke me slowly, but I won't die.
    I know one thing, and one thing only: you are what you learn to need.
    I'll surround myself with things that look like me.
