Yes! I knew it was a Nas track.

Kanye is gettin lazy.
Uhhh... see: Drive Slow and Runaway Love Remix. Not sure he produced either song, but if so then it's nothing new.

Damn, that's some feature list. Tabi Bonney on a major artist's album, what? Curious to hear that song. Definitely going to be something upbeat.

If amazon has a nice price on the Ski Beatz album tomorrow I may get it. I'm just kinda disappointed that they took off all the Mos Def tracks.

I Guess Their Big Brothers (Jay-Z & Em) Did It, Now Its Their Turn.
Other artists are reaching out now, too. Kanye just put Banks in his top five. Is there a G-Unit/G.O.O.D. Music collabo in the works?
It’s cool to receive respect from Kanye due to the fact that he’s lyrical too. Lyrical dudes have respect for other lyrical dudes. Banks is always talking to Fab, he’s always talking to dudes that have lyrical skill, Jay Rock to—everybody that spits bars, they all talk to each other.
But are they actually going to work together?

I guess that opened up the doorway—[50 and Kanye] have been talking about working together since a couple months ago—we all roll out together in a Euro tour. It’s the media that be hyping up all the beef and stupidity. But the real story is behind the scenes on how these dudes be talking. Because I been heard about this s***.

Also 50 Cent's They Burn Me leaked in CDQ, this is some Get Rich or Die Tryin shit here, beat sounds like Kanye Produced it.

I'm sorry, after Curtis said he'd stop making single albums if Graduation outsold him and Graduation ended up outselling him -- and he then took his challenge back? Lol.

Curtis is irrelevant right now. Rich billionaire doing nothing but trollin'. Hypocrisy at its best.

People kill me with this shit, you do realise it was a planned "beef" by BOTH Kanye & 50 Cent, and 50 just said that to create interest in the "feud". hell they were on the cover of RollingStone TOGETHER.

If anyone thinks thay had real beef watch this..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cL3qw0bcZ0

They could both use the tour since kanye's music isn't hitting like it used, neither is 50's, but to say he irrelvant is RETARDED.

There is a story about this man EVERY SINGLE DAY, on those websites that claim he's done. :lol 3.3 million people watch him ramble on twitter. Irrelavant is someone like Tony Yayo, Ja Rule, & LL Cool J.

Besides if Nelly of all people can make a come back so can 50.

sarcasm sarcasm. I didn't even spell irrelevant right. If they do tour together, it'd be cool. I'm not much of a 50 fan, but it would be great to see the two together.

:lol lmao my bad you can never be tell when people are talking about 50 though. I've had people tell me they wish he was dead and they could go back to a time when people were nice to each other. Seriously....I'm not joking

Also when were people ever nice to each other?....

Look okay, you're just gonna have to let this go now. You're only hurting Phoenix Dark and I and the rest of us who've been waiting for over a year by bringing it up all the time.

50 Cent has no business rapping anymore after that turd we call Before I Self Destruct. You're not a gangster anymore, Curtis. Get that through your head and rap about something relevant to your current life.

Oh, and I love how he's trying to stay relevant by going on tour with Kanye. This is just ridiculous.

How is it ridiculous? Don't most rappers rap about money, and things they don't have? what about Rick Ross the ultimate fraud, people don't care about credibility anymore, only music that sounds good.

What do you want from him an album full of "I Get Money", because if you haven't noticed most people in hiphop are rapping about 50 CENT's Lifestyle. What's wrong with him rapping about killing people? Eminem raps about killing and shit he's NEVER done or will do, people don't seem to have a problem with that, as long as it's done right. You're argument is retarded.

I didn't like Before I Self Destruct but i wouldn't call it a turd, hell people still gave eminem a chance after his 2 shitty albums. Whats wrong with trying to stay relevant? You sound hurt lmao. :lol

The Salvation.

Anyway I'm sorry to say, but I really don't give a shit about 50 cent. At this point I'm more interested in Lloyd Banks, and that's kind of sad.

Mickey Factz - Get By Ft. Big K.R.I.T.

When it came to G-Unit, I was always a fan of them in this order
Young Buck > Lloyd Banks > 50 Cent > Tony Yayo.

Banks used to have some amazing verses earlier in his career.

This used to be my jam back in the DJ Green Lanter INVASION mixtape days:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQqAHOKfXOg

It also has the best verse I've ever heard Yayo spit.

I don't really fuck with banks' shit anymore but I still love buck :D

Niiiiiiiiiice. Great features list, and although I usually like shorter projects, Joe Budden is one rapper I can stand listening to for 16 tracks where at least 12 of them will be long. Can't wait.

shit, id love to get hyped @ mood muzik 4 but Budden's been mad whiny lately, i dont know if i can take it. i loved 2 (dumb out, are you in that mood yet?, 3 sides to a story etc) but he's been on some bullshit since the method man thing, mighta been before but i never noticed it.

internet troll 50 is great (that video ya'll put up of him yelling at shyne killed me), but yeah, "They burn me" was good, i want more like that. i thought Massacre was awful, but dude can be alright when he tries.

@ Miami Beat Wave....i only heard "This is life" but damn, i'm liking em. stupid question, but are they local MIA? i would fucking love to back something from my hometown, but all they give me is shit like pitbull, ross, etc:lol

So what's the verdict on the ski beatz album?
With the exception of like 2 tracks(not the instrumentals) it's pretty damn good. It's in heavy rotation right now for me actually. It is also getting me prepped for Oct. 29 lol, Curren$y, DZA and KRIT


New 50:

They Burned Me

Not bad, I haven't listened to 50 since The Massacre, but this is OK. I wanna hear some better beats

At this point Banks is better than everyone in G-Unit (including past members).

Game - Has no buzz, and has been releasing trash music, Album has been shelved.
50 - same as above, but he knows how to keep his name out there
Buck - Decent Music, but stuck in his contract, bankrupt and a dusthead
Yayo - Needs No Explaination, Although i did enjoy his past 2 mixtapes GPG, and the one with danny brown.

Banks has been consistlanly dropping good shit since TOS bricked in 08.

I've been waiting for awhile too man, I just really got really hyped that he'd actually release it on his birthday. Like I told everyone who cared and everything, but it obviously didn't get here. I even played all the tracks of his that I had to get me all pumped. I'm sorry Hip-HopGAF, I'll stop if it's stinging y'all. =(

You'll know it's coming soon when A) Another single drops, B) Album art and a final tracklist is released and C)It's actually out. They're not gonna release without at LEAST a week or two of lead in buzz and hype.

I like Buck the best too actually. The tracks that have been leaking gave been solid to good.

Hmm, but will it be properly mastered?

All of his recent stuff sounds good, and Joe himself has said he can't even listen to stuff on Escape Route because of the bad mix. I'm sure it'll be good this time.

Do yourself a favor and buy Kno's album, releasing October 12th. If you don't love the single then I have no problem emphatically telling you that your taste in hip-hop is complete shit.


Here's where the pre-order magic happens:

The special edition comes with some pretty nice swag.

Obituary Edition preordered! God i cant wait for this shit!

You can't post about Lil Wayne in here without one remark about him not being a good hip hop artist or something of the like.
Hey I love Carter I and mixtape Weezy, but that track is pretty mediocre, and features an atrocious fucking hook....You can't expect me to go crazy over it.

I like it a lot. It's great on night/evening drives. Very mellow but good. Curren$y is a bit of an everyday kinda rapper just with extra weed talk in there. I got the album, on the strength of this song alone:
http://vimeo.com/11759701

My favorite cut from the album but the rest of it is just as strong. If you dig his flow/voice, definitely pick it up.

Don't forget to check out Black Milk's "Album of The Year" too if you can. That's been in heavy rotation for me as well lately. Awesome that you got the Freddie Gibbs EP too. Can't wait for a full album. Oil Money and The Coldest are my jam.
