Seems like there are a few Tribe tributes coming out other than the one we’re doing with DJ Chong Wizard. Too bad the homies QuESt and M.Will didn’t holler, we would have loved to have this on our tape. I’m not sure if they’re doing a full Tribe tribute, but QuESt does have a few projects coming out next year. I’m confused… QuESt, break it down for us…
“So there’s been alot of confusion about what new projects are coming next from me. And I understand. I thought I’d break down the situation plain and simple. And this is the real. The next official project I’m dropping is called “The Reason”. I have no exact release date on it, But I’m planning on releasing it sometime In January,Feburary. The project I have with MWill the Shogun will be released sometime next year April May. There is no official title for that project as of now,We are still doing a project however. Then will come another project called ‘Fear Not Failure” which has no release date, or expected time of release. That’s all for right now. I’m sorry if I confused anybody. “Lyrics to Go” is a track off of me & M Will’s project due out sometime next year like I stated previously. I thought I’d just clear the air about everything.” -QuESt

In follow up to his recently released LP A Day Late & A Dollar Short with Blu (which I have been rockin’ heavily lately), Brooklyn based Sene partners up with South Florida producer Numonics for “Departure Time”. The duo prepare you for take off with this new track which features a rich orchestral feel and the smooth nature flow that Sene is known for. “Departure Time” is featured on Numonics’ upcoming release Being Cool Doesn’t Pay The Bills which will be mixed by none other than DJ RTC of Ruby Hornet.
In addition to Sene, the album boasts features by Donny Goines, QuESt, Co$$, Shawn Chrystopher, Butta Verses, Monsters Ink and more. Being Cool Doesn’t Pay The Bills is presented by IM KING (http://www.imking.com) and will be released for free in January 2010.

The first episode of L’Daialogue’s “The Making Of My InDAIpendent EP” captures him directly in front of Universal Music Group as an in”DAI”pendent artist symbolically (and literally) standing in front of a major label preparing for a photo shoot and subsequently being escorted off of their premises…
This shit’s pretty funny… lol

Fifteen weeks strong of DJ Premier Wednesday. I’m going to keep it short as this week’s sample comes from The Lox sophomore album, We Are the Streets. Premier is a genius as the chop is masterful and Jadakiss sounds great over his production.
Hit the cut for info and link. Props to SC.

It’s up to the emcee in regards to how much they want to show their age—for better or for worse. They could show shining moments of maturity or show evident signs of wear-and-tear. For Masta Ace and Edo.G, it’s not so much about the age as it is about the games started stat in their hip hop column. Both have been around for a long time, and while Ace has more-or-less remained consistent and a perennial pick for one of the dopest emcees ever, Edo.G has had a little bit of a tougher road in terms of being stomped on by hip hop executives and thrown to the side by “true-school” hip hop fans. Surging like a bat outta hell, Ace showed a rejuvenated side to him when dropping Disposable Arts, A Long Hot Summer, and EMC’s The Show, with ALHS being a borderline classic. Edo showed some life, and hey, maybe all that his career needed was that classic production courtesy of Pete Rock and Diamond D on My Own Worst Enemy and a Special Teamz link up via Duck Down for the acclaimed Stereotypez. Now that ya’ll are caught up with their story, there’s no reason to deny Ace and Edo’s collaboration, Arts & Entertainment (A&E), since it is a surprisingly solid release featuring some familiar faces lending some necessary helping hands. Although, A&E isn’t without its fair share of unwanted commercials during it’s usually fine flowing and well executed programming.

Joe Budden has skills and at his best he drops dope bars (Mood Muzik 2: MM2 & MM3), but some of his comments and actions have overshadowed that skill set. He’s been known in the past for those introspective and heart felt rhymes, but the nonsense has taken front in center IMO. Just saying.
Joey goes in over Rihanna’s single of the same name just discussing what’s on his mind in a tasteful way.

In the recent issue of XXL magazine, XXL lists their Top 100 Hip-Hop Web Sites. For once, we made the list! But it is a Top 100 list… who DIDN’T make the list? I ain’t mad, this is a great look. XXL learned from Vibe’s mistake and decided to NOT rank their list. What’s the point of a list again? Sorry… again, not mad. Thanks XXL!
Hit the jump for the full list…
Edit: This list supposedly had been leaked by some dude name Animal. If so, props to him. More importantly, XXL is commenting on each one of the sites on their list here. Thanks for the heads up Ivan!
This is what XXL has to say about KevinNottingham.com:
Underground rap shit.
Wow, is that what we are? I’d love to hear comments about that!

This past September was the anniversary of Jabee’s brothers death. So in remembrance, Jabee & the ARE thought this beat would fit a concept about family, friends, and “blood.”
