Boogz’ library is deep. So deep in fact that he pulled out this joint, that I must admit, I’d never heard before. It wasn’t on the version of Blue Collar that I had, but depending on where you purchased (**cough**), you may have had the version with this No ID-produced banger on it. Rhymefest feat….

DJ Pharris feat. R.Kelly, Fat Joe, Fabolous & Busta Rhymes – “The Money”
Man, I’ve known about this track for MONTHS but was told I couldn’t do anything with it. Well, leave it up to Mr. X to go ahead and liberate to the internets. This joint is from Power 92’s Heavy Hitter, DJ Pharris, as he assembles an all-star cast, of what seems to be Hip Hop’s…

Another lost and forgotten Lupe Fiasco freestyle. Here he spits over Diddy’s Neptunes-assisted ode to his alias. I love the way he used to go in…He just snaps here, plain and simple. Lupe Fiasco – “Diddy (Freestyle)”
Video: Mikkey Halsted Previews “I’m A Rider”
Earlier in the week I posted some footage of Mikkey Halsted in the studio (The Attic, to be exact) with a few Chicago journalists as he played some music from his upcoming album, Chicago: The Photo Album. In this Ruby Hornet-directed clip, Mikkey plays his Lil Wayne-influenced verse from his upcoming collaboration with Mick Luter,…

The MT rumor states: The music insider explained to MediaTakeOut.com, “He’s been through a lot in the past year and I know he’s just not into…
Payroll – “I Got It”
Due to the high volume of requests I received yesterday, I had to hunt down this Payroll track in MP3 form. Thanks for Mr. Webb for sending over. You’re really diggin’ the Portishead sample, huh? The quality isn’t exactly 100, but it’ll have to do for now. Payroll – “I Got It”
Common feat. Pharrell – “Announcement”
Another joint (possibly) from the now-delayed Invincible Summer. An improvement from “UMC”, in my opinion. Comm channeling “Who Shot Ya” here…Interesting. Common feat. Pharrell – “Announcement” Spotted via Master Shake
