Missing Link Music Producer Sidney "Omen" Brown, Co-Produces "Shut It Down" by Drake

Missing Link Music congratulates long time writer Sidney "Omen" Brown for his production contribution to Drake's highly anticipated debut album Thank Me Later. Omen and frequent Drake collaborator Noah "40" Shebib co-produced "Shut It Down," which features R&B sensation The Dream and has been personally referred to by Drake as his favorite song on the album.

Omen and 40 also collaborated together on the Lil Wayne song "I'm Single," which appeared on the mixtape No Ceilings and made its video debut April 18th on MTV2's "Sucker Free Countdown" as well as MTV Jams.

Omen has been represented by Missing Link Music since November of 2002. Compositions administered on his behalf include "Change You or Change Me" and "Why Wouldn't I" from Fabolous's Street Dreams, "Taste This" from Mya's Moodring, "Everybody" from Memphis Bleek's Coming Of Age, and "Swagger Back" from Keith Murray's He's Keith Murray. Omen's breakthrough came in 2006, when Ludacris recorded "Tell It Like It Is" over one of his productions, and used it as the b-side to his #1 single "Money Maker." "Tell It Like It Is" was featured on Ludacris's double album Release Therapy, which won the 2007 Grammy Award for Best Rap Album, earning Omen his first Grammy award and certificate.

Since then, Omen has remained busy building his production company Elaborate Musik Orchestra which is currently housed out of world class recording studio Stadium Red in Harlem. Antoine "Audio Blk" Baldwin, another Missing Link Music songwriter, is the first producer to sign to Elaborate Musik Orchestra. Omen has labeled Antoine a "beast on the keys" and also noted that "when he hears a composition in his head, it's crazy how fast he lays it down. I think we can benefit from one another and make a lot of hits. I hear a hit record from me and him in the next few months." The two were introduced last year by Missing Link Music A&R Rep Sean O'Neal, who felt that Antoine's musicianship and knowledge of composition theory would be a perfect match for Omen's dynamic sound.

Thank Me Later will be released on Tuesday, June 15th through Young Money/Cash Money/Universal Motown, and also features appearances from Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, Young Jeezy and Alicia Keys.
