18 TRAX and some video premieres from the past couple days. Yesterday was once again a travel day for Tibs but I’m back w/ some Q-Tip featuring the future President of the United States?!?! Haha, snippets of Obama’s inspiring words are mixed with the N.Y. rapper’s track that I believe is on his upcoming album, The Renaissance, in stores 2morrow! Make sure 2 get out 2 the polls 2morrow as well: Election Day is almost here! I’m sure we’ll remind ya again 2morrow Anyway, there’s a bonus Q-Tip RMX of “Gettin’ Up” by DJ Scratch featuring Busta Rhymes and down below, predominantly R&B featuring some big names in Usher, Ne-Yo, Mario, Trey Songz, and MUCH MORE! You might like more than I do, but generally, I wasn’t feelin’ a lot of the new ish below. Also, don’t forget the video premieres at the bottom from Q-Tip, Freeway, & Craig David! Enjoy!
So Chi-Town’s own, Verbal Kent, reached out to us with this timely exclusive - a hip hop version of the classic Chicago Cubs theme song “Go Cubs Go” that rings through Wrigley Field after every W (and let’s hope that will continue in October!). As a ridiculously huge Cubs fan, I’ll be glued to the TV or maybe at Wrigley for the playoffs this year and the city is straight up buzzing as this is the best chance in recent history that the Cubs will break their 100 year World Series drought (Oh, and I suppose the South Siders may be chatting a lil’ bit as well as they sneaked into the playoffs themselves less than an hour ago.. hmmph..) As for Verbal Kent, he is not just a no-namer from Chicago, as evidenced by his recent ink in the hip hop magazine, XXL, and you can peep his MySpace HERE! Much props 2 VK for the creative rhymes centered around the starters and pitching staff as well as the bench players, announcers, and more! Of course, Go Cubs Go!
Down below… FIFTEEN NEW TRACKS! You gotta find somethin’ u like, especially the R&B fans out there as the NEW trax from heavyweights Trey Songz, Ne-Yo, & Mario are ones that will be in my rotation for some time 2 come as well as some of the unknowns, specifically that Jason Derulo track that is striking a chord w/ me. Hip hop fans will see a couple Paper Trail bonus trax that are definitely good enough 2 be on the album (and I got the album 2day… it’s ridiculous.. expect a review soon!). Really feelin’ “I Know You Missed Me”! Sorry couldn’t get up on here earlier, but Tuesdays are my busy day. Off 2 the gym fools; Enjoy!
FULL, CDQ, Rumored track off upcoming album, READY *Tibs Fav.™
Here’s Songz comin’ thru w/ another nice track.. Lyrics could be viewed as corny, but I like them, haha. And I love most everything Songz, but don’t just take it from me. His popularity has certainly risen the past year and this midtempo track shows he’s got the undeniable talent that you at least have to respect. Down below, mainly R&B for ya ears and a lot of big-name producers like Timbaland, Polow Da Don, & Darkchild. Many of these trax have growing potential on me and could surely be a big hit for u also. Finally, a couple videos featuring another live performance from Common & Pharrell doing a new track (again… is Common releasing the whole album w/ Pharrell??) and the other video a recent interview from the man himself, Eminem! Enjoy!
