got a few bits that I actually listened to/liked this week:
01/Nas ft. Bravehearts "Zone Out" [sorry, I love the beat on this one.]
02/Jay-Z ft. Nas "Success" [4 words: LET THAT BITCH BREATHE!]
03/Crime Mob ft. Lil' Scrappy Vs. Kion "Knuck If You Buck (DJ Nappy THUGSTEP Refix)" [you know what it is.]
04/Kjell "Cloud Thirty" [how does Colours Audio only have 3 releases out and own most other DnB labels out there?]
05/5 Deez "Late October" [just love the vibes on this one; the chorus, if you can call it that, always gets me going]

There's a few mixtapes out there for you heads:
Ransom has dropped his
Ransom Note mixtape, and I think
Joe Budden is right: that whole "beef" looks kind of suspect.
Lil' Wayne's new mixtape is out as well, entitled
The Leak (more mirrors @
Different Kitchen). I don't think this
Leak is the same as
THIS Leak, but oh well.
