Holy shit, Busta Rhymes has employed none other than Madlib for production on his next album, taken right from the Stones Throw website…”Looks like Madlib will have 2 beats on the upcoming Busta Rhymes album. The songs have already been recorded and Busta has paid for the tracks. Time will tell if they make the final cut. Also possibly using Madlib beats for their new albums are rappers Talib Kweli and Q Tip.”
At the new “Rhyme Night” event hosted by Xzibit, he was joined onstage by the Tha Liks as they have patched things up. That puts a smile on my face. In addition, the night was said to be a success as over 700 showed up to check out the new talent…
To little surprise, the upcoming Outkast box set is said to break down like this, Big Boi’s “Speakerboxx” is on some hip-hop shit and Dre’s “The Love Below” is on some funk shit. Big Boi has enlisted Jay-Z, Goodie Mob and Norah Jones for appearances.
Former Goodie Mob frontman and first generation D-boy, Cee-Lo, is gonna release his second solo album this fall. Look for Cee-Lo Green is the Soul Machine in September. Credit to hiphopsite for the two notes above.
