OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE FROM LOUD MANAGEMENT, INC., REPRESENTING PRODUCER/SONGWRITER/ARTIST 2-BELOW.

Loud Management, Inc., in full use of its rights as granted by artist herein represented, would like to issue the following statement on behalf of 2-Below regarding recent news related to the breakup and potential reunion of BBL.

It is with some measurable degree of sadness that we must communicate the standing policy of 2-Below and his related staff with regard to BBL. While his days with the super group are still recalled with fondness, 2-Below wishes to express once again his firm position on the issue of reuniting the group.

2-Below maintains that he will never be a part of any such reunion effort. The glory days of the four troublemaking men of the late 90's, early 2000's are over and this particular member has no desire to return to the group.

In addition, Loud Management denies any knowledge of the "Blue Dilly Dilly" conspiracy. As always, we maintain that the credits listed on file with both ASCAP and BMI performing rights societies are absolutely correct. 2-Below did not write the mega-hit by himself, nor has ever maintained as such. 2-Below finds these allegations disturbing and wishes no ill-will upon Ice, Wings and Money should they decide to join forces again.

2-Below is hard at work in the studio mastering his brand new album, Words Ain't Nothin', a brand new instrumental CD that promises to bring this famed performer back into the limelight that he deserves.
