SLASH Filming 'Beautiful Dangerous' Video - Aug. 27, 2010

Legendary guitarist Slash (VELVET REVOLVER, GUNS N' ROSES) is filming a video today (Friday, August 27) for the song "Beautiful Dangerous" with guest singer Fergie (a.k.a. Stacy Ann Ferguson). Slash says, "[The] concept is twisted; Fergie's idea."

"Beautiful Dangerous" comes off Slash's all-star collaborations album, simply titled "Slash", which scored the highest new entry on The Billboard 200 chart in early April, with first-week U.S. sales of around 60,000 copies. TheCD, which was released in North America on April 6 via EMI Label Services, features an all-star roster of guest musicians, including Ian Astbury, Chris Cornell, Rocco DeLuca, Fergie, Dave Grohl, Myles Kennedy, Kid Rock, Lemmy Kilmister, Adam Levine, Duff McKagan, M. Shadows of AVENGED SEVENFOLD, Ozzy Osbourne, Iggy Pop, and Andrew Stockdale of WOLFMOTHER.

WOW this single has a  shot to be a smash. Fergie sucks but people seem to really love her.

She is so hot and I love that song. It will be a smash hit IMO.

I still don't believe the song will be the smash hit that some are claiming, never have.  I just don't think "rock" fans are interested in hearing Fergie sing "rock", and I don't think Fergie fans are all that interested in hearing her step away from the hip hop/pop world either.  I just don't see rock or pop stations putting this in heavy rotation.  It's too out there for each of them for different reasons.  And I really dig the song.

I will say though, I do remember the song selling pretty well on iTunes initially, so I guess that could/should be an indicator of something.  And I am quite interested in seeing the video.  So I have a good reason to stare at Fergie and hear a good tune all at once.  : ok:

I think it'll might be a success as well. While I do agree that fans from the rock and hip hop genre have no interest in seeing Fergie do rock permanently, a lot of people will be curious about the song and the video will help deliver it. You can be a hip hop fan and still like a rock track or two and vice versa. If Axl were to collaborate with a hip-hop artist (God forbid, touchwood), would or would you not be interested in the song?

Post by: D on August 28, 2010, 07:11:13 AM
I thinku guys underestimate the power of Fergie.

Black Eyed Peas fucking suck and are terrible but geez have u seen their singles? They are monsters. Fergie's solo shit did HUGE as well.

no reason this won't do big as well, especially with Fergie really pushing it.

This song is "rock" but it  isn't like Metallica or something. It is still pretty poppy imo.

SLASH: 'Beautiful Dangerous' Video Released - Oct. 27, 2010

"Beautiful Dangerous", the new "sexually charged" video from legendary guitarist Slash (VELVET REVOLVER, GUNS N' ROSES), can be viewed below (courtesy of Australia's long-running rock station Triple M). In the clip, which was filmed on August 27 with guest singer Fergie (a.k.a. Stacy Ann Ferguson), Fergie plays an obsessed fan who will do anything to get her man, stalking the famous guitarist around the seedy bars of Los Angeles. Slash said in a Twitter posting, "[The] concept is twisted; Fergie's idea."

SLASH'S Video With FERGIE Too Steamy For Wide Release - Nov. 10, 2010

According to The Pulse of Radio, Slash's new music video for his song "Beautiful Dangerous", which features a guest appearance from Fergie, is apparently too steamy for wide public release and will have to be edited. Slash was quoted as saying in a recent interview, "It's very controversial. I thought it was okay but apparently there's a lot of suggestiveness and we're having a rethink." The clip stars Fergie as a crazed fan who stalks Slash and ends up tying him to a bed, kissing him and teasing him with a knife, all while dressed in leather lingerie. Slash said that the sexy BLACK EYED PEAS singer came up with the concept for the video herself.

Post by: D on November 11, 2010, 01:49:34 AM
Prince does those distribution deals all the time, and the way his worked, he basically pays for recording expenses, the distributor does just that, gets it in all the stores for a cut of the sales.

They definitely put minimal promotion and budget behind it. nowhere near what a Geffen or Universal or Warner Bros does


Slash even talked about the difference in having Clive Davis pushing your record as opposed to doing it how he is now.

hahaha... nobody has the balls to reply to your industry knowledge, D. From what i can see, there was a huge viral Slash campaign; esp. for that video...

 He doesn't need a label because everythings cheaper now w/ mostly online sales... I don't think there'd be that much different if he was with a major. But you're right we can forgive him for Monster, I think. Although that very blatant monster sip is kinda dissapointing

Slash: 'My wife suggested Fergie tie me up!' - video

Guitarist comes clean over NSFW music video

November 15, 2010

Slash has explained how his wife suggested Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie tie him up and straddle him in the video for his new single 'Beautiful Dangerous'.

In a video interview with NME, which you can watch on the right of your screen now, the guitarist hailed Fergie as "the best female rock singer I've heard in the last 15 years".

Speaking of the 'not safe for work' video for the song (watch it by scrolling down and clicking below) Slash said: "My wife had told her, 'You should tie him up and do all this stuff'. So she took my wife's word, and the next thing you know I'm tied to the bed."

He added: "It was an interesting time, but it was a lot of fun. She's really great to hang out with... I could think of worse things I could be doing that being tied down and straddled by Fergie."

Watch the full interview with Slash on the right and the video for 'Beautiful Dangerous' below.

Slash: Black Eyed Peas' 'Fergie Has A Really Great Rock Voice'

11/18/2010

News of a solo album with guest vocalists from legendary hard rock guitarist Slash had many speculating as to whom would be appear. More obvious names like Ozzy Osbourne, Alice Cooper and Mot?rhead's Lemmy Kilmister duly appeared. However, one confirmation was a confirmation nobody really expected: Fergie from multi-platinum hip-hop artists The Black Eyed Peas.

The April 2010 eponymous full-length debut from the erstwhile Guns N' Roses and current Velvet Revolver axeman includes "Beautiful Dangerous", with vocals from none other than Fergie. "The riff that I wrote was initially for a movie right before I did a solo record" reveals Slash. "I scored a movie, and a couple of the songs on my album originally came from riffs I scored for that movie. One of the scenes in the movie was the strip scene; I wrote a piece of instrumental music for that, and then I started thinking it would make a good song. When I started to work on my solo album, that's when I made that into a song. Fergie I knew a year and a half or so prior to that, and I found out that Fergie had a really great rock voice so I called her up, took the song with her to the demo studio I was working at, and she wrote the lyrics for the tune. Musically, the song was finished. It was very quick and simple; I went into the studio to record my solo album however much later, put down the actual track, and she came in and recorded vocals. It was pretty easy."

However, that snippet of instrumental work would need to be fleshed out before transforming into a fully-fledged composition. "In the movie, that section of music was only thirty seconds to a minute long" notes the Stoke-On-Trent raised rocker. "It was really just later that I made a song out of that section I'd already written."

Directed by Rich Lee, a music video for "Beautiful Dangerous" was recorded on August 27th. "It was a one day shoot, and it basically involved the strip bar location and the motel location which were about a block away from each other" states Slash. "The bar is a really famous L.A. strip bar called Jumbo's Clown Room, and it's been around for years. Fergie was totally in character; she had a really specific idea of what the video was all about, what she should look like and that kind of thing. I just played myself. Compared to most concept videos I've shot, it was the easiest one to film. It was just a lot of fun, and Fergie's fun to work with. She's very focused. It was pretty quick and painless. The director Richard Lee was great."

"There was no real idea for a concept, so I called Fergie and said "We're shooting this video"" continues Slash. "She said "I have the idea of me stalking you", and had that idea firmly in her head. She's strung out in the video, and stalks me. I play a gig, and the way she comes into the strip bar where the after-party is seduces me. She then drugs me, takes me back to her place, and ties me to the bed. It's a very simple concept (laughs), and it was something we thought out together as we were shooting it."

Surprisingly, the idea of Fergie tying Slash to the bed was suggested by Perla Hudson, the man's wife of nine years. "Yeah, that was my wife's idea" he laughs. "I think her and Fergie had talked, and she made that suggestion."

Debuting October 27th, "Beautiful Dangerous"' music video's risqu? material hasn't been well received in some quarters. Asked if any issues have arisen in the video receiving airplay, Slash responds "All over, yeah. For some reason, regular video outlets think it's a little on the edgy side. I find it really hard to believe it's as controversial as it is - it's just a story. We made some changes to the video and edited it. Maybe it's just because it's not the typical rock video."

"Beautiful Dangerous" isn't the first studio record to feature Slash and Fergie collaborating. On November 11th, 2009, Slash released the tune "Sahara" in Japan, featuring Koshi Inaba of B'Z. Its B-side was a reinterpretation of Guns N' Roses classic "Paradise City" (the original featuring on July 1987's 'Appetite For Destruction'), Fergie and Cypress Hill rounding out those who contributed to the cover version. "I've played "Paradise City" with Cypress Hill since 2002, the night I also performed with Steven Tyler, Matt Sorum and Duff" Slash explains. "We did a show that was a tribute to Randy Castillo, and at the end of the concert, we were joined by Cypress Hill and Steven Tyler. I always thought that was just such a cool version, and I've actually played it with Cypress Hill a handful of times since then. I always said "One of these days, I wanna record this version", so when I was making my solo record, I called up Cypress Hill and asked them if they would record our version of "Paradise City" with me. I just happened to be working with Fergie on "Beautiful Dangerous" at the time, so I asked her if she'd be willing to sing on the song and that was it. It was just a fun thing to do."

Inevitably, music fans will draw comparisons between the original rendition of "Paradise City" and its reimagining. Slash, however, refuses to really weigh in on the topic. "The original is the original, and this one is probably a tad slower and just a little different. I don't know - I don't compare the two that much. Fergie does a great Axl, and she's an Axl fan."

Fergie's guest appearances on "Beautiful Dangerous" and a cover version of "Paradise City" leaves the door open for future collaborations with The Black Eyed Peas vocalist, of course. "She's been talking about doing a rock record" Slash discloses. "If she does that and wants me to work with her on that, then I will. If it does happen, cool, and whatever else she's got going that needs guitars on, I'm probably up for doing. "Beautiful Dangerous" should give you an idea of what a Fergie rock record would sound like; she's pretty wild, and a lot more extreme than people realize."

"Slash", the guitarist's eponymous debut solo full-length, was issued throughout April 2010 by different record labels in different territories.
