In-demand Miami production team Cool and Dre are set to have a record-breaking year, courtesy of several key music and film projects. First up is Queen Latifah’s upcoming film Just Wright. The duo has signed on to score and serve as music supervisors for the romantic comedy, which will be released through Fox Searchlight. This summer, Cool and Dre will follow up with the Queen by executive producing her first Hip-Hop album in 10 years. Now titled The Persona, Latifah’s seventh studio LP is scheduled for a July 7 drop date. The Miami super producers will also have a dominant representation on Lil Wayne’s Rebirth, having already produced 10 songs for the ambitious rock project. The latest single, “Hot Revolver,” is ranked #15 on Billboard’s Hot Digital Songs chart. In addition, Cool and Dre have secured work on new albums from Amerie (Break Ups and Make Ups), Lloyd, Birdman, and Justin Timberlake’s Hip-Hop/rock hybrid group Free Sol.
