Last night at the Key Club out here in LA, Kanye made an appearance at T.I.’s Paper Trail Album Release Party. Here’s some footage from Consequence showing Ye & T.I. perform “Swagga Like Us”. Afterwards, Kanyeezy performs “Love LockDown” and debuts his next single “Heartless”. I guess he serious about the autotune, but the joint sounds nice. 808’s & Heartbreak has been pushed up to November 25th!

Takin’ Em Back – 10/3
3 10 2008Mobb Deep – Shook Ones Pt. II
I was listenin’ to Pandora radio at work (if you aren’t up on it, you need to hit that up), and I came across one of my favorite joints from the Infamous album by Mobb Deep. No lie, I first heard the Infamous some time this year and it made me wonder where the hell was I when it dropped? Hearing an album that dropped over a decade ago and it’s still listenable today is a classic and passed the test of time. Therefore I bring you today’s throwback track, “Shook Ones Pt. II”.

Dope or Nope 9/30: New 50
30 09 200850 Cent – 50 For President
Looks like Fif is swagger jackin Murs’ campaigned theme (Murs For President) with “50 for President”. It seems like politics on everyone’s mind these days which even has Curtis dropping political music. Overall it’s a coo track. Before I Self Destruct will be in stores December 9th.

Dope or Nope 9/23: New Busta & Lupe Joints!
23 09 2008Busta Rhymes feat. Ron Browz – Arab Money
The auto-tune has struck again! Busta hooks up with “Ether” producer Rob Browz for his latest single “Arab Money” off his forthcoming album Back On My Bullshit. Maybe this’ll grow on me, but as of right now it’s so-so. I liked “Dont Touch Me” much better than this.
Lupe Fiasco feat. Pharrell, Q-tip & Sarah Green – Paris, Tokyo Remix
Kind of late since The Cool has been out since December, but better late than never! The remix features CRS affiliate Pharrell, Q-Tip, and Lupe’s frequent hook lady, Sarah Green. Enjoy!
