About the Artist
Originating from Crown Heights Brooklyn, Marquis White found himself at the age of twelve as a diamond in the rough. Applying his experiences and emotions, he is now able to express them lyrically. At the age of fifteen he was placed between a rock and a hard place. Marquis was given the opportunity to leave New York and have a better life but at the same time he was forced with leaving his mother. It was another road for him to travel in becoming a man. It gave him more to rap about and it strengthened his hunger for greatness. In traveling this road, he went through a lot dealing with the circumstances of his past and trying to build his future. In doing so, he became PRODUK.

His style consists of raw lyrics along with a delivery that is unmatchable. Produk uses a rhyme scheme of which you cannot place a label on because it switches so much. His lyrics contain fact based knowledge, creativity, and skills. Produk focuses mostly on his strive to be the best as a direction for his music rather than just throwing stuff together and calling it a song. Working with producers C4 and Jeffrey "Miami" Richardson, Produk put together an unfinished project titled "Produk Of Society". Moving on his own after a while, Produk began to work on his first finished project titled "Real Audio". Produk kept in mind through the making of this album that is was to be strictly for the streets. He wanted people to recognize him for his trademark of hard punch lines and logical metaphors in which he mixes with the mind state of a hungry Brooklyn native. Produk also promoted his mix tape mostly in the South East Region to bring an Up-North flavor to the table. It was titled "Ground Up Vol. 1". He also dwells in the world of production, writing, songwriting, and poetry. His musical influences are: Jay-Z, Biggie, Tupac, Nas, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, LL Cool J, Busta Rhymes, Beenie Man, Buju Banton, Marvin Gaye, Barry White, The Temptations, Al Green, and the Delfonics.

Produk is currently building his background of stage experience. He has performed at: Club H20 (Charlotte, NC), Pantana Bobs (Raleigh, NC), Gary's Club (Hickory, NC), Top Forty (Hickory, NC), Club Phenomenon (Hickory, NC) The National Guard Armory (Conover, NC), Holiday Inn (Statesville, NC), The Dell Curry Tournament at the Charlotte Latin School (Charlotte, NC), and Studio 74 (Gastonia, NC) all on several occasions.

His associations are: C4 and Miami of Power House Productions, Jeva (producer), Broadway, BI (Jenks Entertainment), Invincible ESP, Master Cut (Producer for Jenks Entertainment), Young Flossaz who are also produced by Master Cut, Paradox, Riot Heights Entertainment (DJ Juggernaut), Dolo of Self Entertainment (produced for such artists as: Drag-on, Sha Palmer, etc.). Shannon Griffin of "Dynamic Sovereign Marketing & Production", Anonymous, Doughboy, Klassified, Faithfully Blessed, Ismail A.K.A. "J Mello", Symphony (Charlotte, N.C.), Queen City Recording and Production, Crunkville Entertainment, Big Cas (bigcas.com), Sha Palmer A.K.A. "Phat Baby" (phatbabybiz.com), Duane A.K.A. "Cap" of Free Enterprise, and Raw Change A.K.A. "LA".

Produk is not just a rapper, he is an all around artist. He is prepared to win the hearts of many, and earn respect from all. Music is his door to other forms of business. Produk is currently in school Majoring in Business Administration and shall be receiving his degree in the fall of 2004. He has a future full of treasures.

5 out of 5 stars my opinion.......2007-08-01

This recording was reccomended somewhere as being even better than the newer version with Bryn Terfel and Renee Fleming - it really is tops, I think. Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau is as lyrical as ever. And the other soloists are also breathtaking.

4 out of 5 stars Wonderful, but not my first choice.......2007-04-07

I believe this was the first recording of Elijah in English that used an "international" conductor and some international singers. Fruhbeck gives a good, dramatic sweep to the piece, with some wonderful dramatic moments. This is an old fashioned performance, with only a solo quartet, and if there is a semi-chorus, I can't tell the difference. This means that the soprano is the Widow, and an Angel, the mezzo the Angel and Queen Jezabel, etc. You really should have a libretto, but you don't get one at this price.
Fischer-Dieskau roughens up his voice for the role, and therein lies a problem. The voice spreads and his diction suffers because of it; that and his unidiomatic pronounciation, with far too many rolled "r"s. He does the drama well, but what works well in lieder works here less well on the large scale. Odd, given his success as on opera singer (check out his Iago), that here he frequently comes off blustery.
Dame Gwyneth Jones belies her reputation and gives a contolled, dramatic performance, using her "edge" to advantage in "Hear Ye, Israel". Gedda's diction is amazing, with exactly the right color for this literature, and projecting a little more blood than an English tenor.
Dame Janet Baker is my star in this performance. Dramatic, heart-rending when need be, and in wonderful voice. She'll chill your blood when she tells the people of Baal to "slaughter him, do what he hath done!".
And as for the people of Baal, the Philharmonia Chorus is wonderful. Incisive and dramatic, with beautiful tone. I could do without the trick of the boy choir for "Lift Thine Eyes", and I miss the small ensembles, but all in all a fine performance, and good recording, circa 1968.
First choice in English, Daniels/Terfel: better Elijah in Terfel, better recording, more authentic orchestra, small vocal ensembles (as per the score) but inferior women (including Fleming: beautiful tone, but where's her head?). In German, it's Sawallisch/Adam all the way.
But if you're singing Elijah, and have a score, this is a good choice.

5 out of 5 stars THE BEST recording of the BEST oratorio ever..........2006-08-15

Okay, I'm gonna admit I'm biased- I first sung in the chorus of Elijah when I was 14 and it made a BIG impression on me!
This recording is in every way wonderful. Starting with Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. He IS Elijah to me. His singing is perfection. He has amazing phrasing and his diction makes it possible to understand the lovely, inspired libretto to this heavenly music. There are so many pieces that are ephemeral, but a couple of my favorites are: #14, Lord God of Abraham and #37, For the Mountains shall Depart. Dieskau does a great job of what I think of as compassionate, heartfelt singing. His interpretation sounds like the voice of God himself. It has a quality of kindness and yet he sounds just as convincing reprimanding the people of Baal. He is the true highlight of this recording.

That said, the rest of the cast is wonderful as well. Gwyneth Jones has a lovely, silvery voice that has a clarion bell-like tone that rings over the large orchestra with ease. She has occasional "misfire" but is a consistent performer. Dame Janet Baker and Nicolai Gedda both perform at a consistently lovely level. The orchestra and chorus are both wonderful. #15, Cast thy Burden upon the Lord, #32 He that Shall Endure to the End, and #38 Then Did Elijah are all highlights.

All said, for me the main reason to get this recording is Dieskau's Elijah- after all, he's the main character. But don't forget the lovely music. This story is exciting and passionate and sacred all at the same time. For me, it's the best oratorio that has a moving story and great music too.

4 out of 5 stars Too bad there are so few recordings of Elijah.......2006-07-03

This is a good recording of an oratorio that deserves more attention. The chorus and soloists are very good--I just wish Fischer-Diskau wouldn't slide around so much in singing the title part!

Based on Somerset Maugham's middling novel Theater, Annette Bening stars as the title character, an aging star of the London stage whose life and the melodramas she performs have come to mirror each other. Composer Mychael Danna sets those conflicts to a score that emphasizes theatrical surfaces and rigid role-playing, utilizing a finely honed classical pastiche approach with parallels to his previous period-evoking work on Vanity Fair. His cues here are rooted in the light romantic chamber music of the 19th century, though they frequently bristle with a more contemporary energy and aplomb. Offering counterpoint to Danna's dignified, oft-precious classical confections and mining the story's more sensual human dimensions are pop chestnuts from the era (The Andrews Sisters' saucy "Bei Mir Bist Du Schon" and Mills Brothers' jaunty "Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries"), as well as fine contemporary takes of "They Didn't Believe Me" and Noel Coward's "Mad About the Boy" by Denzel Sinclair and Alison Jicar's elegant read of "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes." --Jerry McCulley

4 out of 5 stars Beautiful melody but lacks variety.......2005-04-11

Being Julia OST has a beautiful main melody which occurs over and over again throughout the tracks. I especially like "Curtain Up" and "Quite Alone". However, Being Julia OST doesn't have other strong melody to show along side with the main melody which seems a little too simple for a complete album. The movie is great too. Annette Bening's performance is outstanding.
