Pause (song)
"Pause" is a single by Jay Dee that was chosen to lead his 2001 (see 2001 in music) album, Welcome 2 Detroit. Besides a grunt and an ad-lib, ("Bounce"), Jay Dee himself doesn't perform on the song, but instead features his friends Frank-N-Dank, who brace the horn-laced track with suitably over-the-top braggadocio. Much of Dank's opening first is later featured in scratches on Dilla's Ruff Draft EP song Let's Take It Back.
The appropriately titled "Featuring Phat Kat" sees his one time fellow 1st Down member Phat Kat on the mic, while Jay Dee provides a subdued, but gritty canvas for him to let loose. The song is also notable for featuring one of Jay Dee's DJ Premier-esque scratch montages.

Famous quotes containing the word pause:
“No one is ahead of his time, it is only that the particular variety of creating his time is the one that his contemporaries who are also creating their own time refuse to accept.... For a very long time everybody refuses and then almost without a pause almost everybody accepts. In the history of the refused in the arts and literature the rapidity of the change is always startling.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
