REAKWON SAYS ANOTHER WUTANG ALBUM ON THE WAY.

I remember back about three years ago when the last wu album dropped, 8 DIAGRAM, and it happened that the other members like GHOSTFACE KILLER, and REAKOWN had some miss-understanding with RZA, the man behind the whole wu movement, and also a bonafide member of the group. They believed RZA just put up their verses with beats they weren't in agreement with.

I was not feeling that whole movement back then...Anyway, i guess they have resolved all differences and are ready to drop a new album.

Below is what rae had to say;

"I mean, in my eyes there's always going to be another Wu album," he said in an interview. "Whether you hear me come out with another album or whether you hear any one of the Clan members, we're always going to involve everybody. When I look at Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, Part II, I look at that as a Wu album. You feel me? Even though it was my brand and my thing that I done, I had my dudes on it. The first one was like that too, a Wu album. As far as doing another [full Wu-Tang album], we don't know when it's going to come yet. But it'll come. We have to do it. It's a job. I can't call exactly when. But you got this Wu Massacre about to come. You got the Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang, which is my next album that's coming. These are all avenues to incorporate the W at a high level right now." (Entertainment Weekly)

FAT JOE ABOUT TO DROP HIS 10TH ALBUM; THE DARKSIDE:VOL 1.


No one would think that FAT JOE would come up with another album so soon after his last one, J.O.S.E 2, flopped, selling only 12k in its first week; and all the clowning that 50 cent did to him.

And it is funny that the same 50cent flopped with his own album too...anyway, back to fat joe, who is working on his 10th album, THE DARK SIDE: VOL 1. I think this is why i like this dude, he loves the art, and wouldn't let some set backs in his career hold me down.

He has already dropped the first single from the album and it features YOUNG JEEZY. The single is titled HAHA (SLOW DOWN SON). I wish him all the luck.
Below is what he had to say about the single:

"Congratulations Welcome to THE DARK SIDE!! The first single off my new album ft. Young Jeezy HAHA(Slow Down Son) YA ALL WELCOME!!!!," he wrote Thursday (February 4). "Here is the Clean Here is the dirty link again it I TOLD YA I WAS COMING WITH THAT MONSTER JOINT WELCOME TO THE DARK SIDE!!!!! CRACK @Scoopdeville My brother that beat is a monster you see what me and jeezy did to that thing there !!!!!" (Fat Joe's Twitter)

Okay, there you have it. Come to think about it, i don't have any complains about any winners, i just don't think jay should have won twice for the same song.

Like maybe they wouldhave just given keri and kanye that best rap/sung collaboration. And how come blueprint 3 and deeper than rap weren't nominated in the best rap album category?

As i said before, there is nothing i can do.
