βWhat started out as a mixtape title with Lil Wayne turned into something much more,β Santana said in a press release. Artists like Ski, Caesar and Young Ja (the rapperβs nephew) are currently on the roster.
The label also has its own Instagram page with the likes of Dave East, N.O.R.E. and fellow Dipset member Jim Jones praising Santanaβs latest endeavor. The labelβs logo is a zombified baby that encompasses the multifaceted nature of βI Canβt Feel My Face,β including music, clothing, and cannabis.
The mixtape with Lil Wayne was supposed to happen back in 2005, but ultimately never came to fruition. βIt worked out for the best anyway, because the album didnβt come out for political reasons,β Santana explained in a 2008 VladTV interview. βThere were so many people you had to get on the same page, and at that time I still had Cam in my situation.β
In 2012, Lil Wayne told MTV : βI started putting extra verses on those songs and Iβve moved on. Now what probably wouldβve been I Canβt Feel My Face, has now turned into I Am Not a Human Being.β Santanaβs studio being raided a year prior also played a role in the delay.
βHe canβt work how he wants to work because they shut down his studio,β Wayne said. βI sent him some music and he didnβt send them back in the time-fashion that I work.β
βI Canβt Feel My Faceβ will be sponsoring theΒ Diplomats & Friends Burning Gas TourΒ starting July 16th in New York City.
