Some of you might know Novel as a Grammy-award winning producer whose written for the likes of Alicia Keys, Leona Lewis, and Lauryn Hill; most you probably know him as "that dude that works with Slaughterhouse." Both parties, however, may miss the mark. Unless you've been following the man's career, you're still underestimating one of R&B's premiere talents. Singer; songwriter; producer; there isn't a thing this man can't do.
"I'll Be There" is a standout feature from Novel's brand new street album Red Wine & Ambien II available for download via our friends at DJBooth. If you're feeling this one, you owe it to yourself to check out the rest of the tape.

Quotable Lyrics:
Fly Ethiopian, body doper than opium
Say I'm throwing salt in this game; here comes the sodium
Sittin' on the side line, watching you take L's
I'm in the same situation that Kobe in -- throw me in
