The track that everyone’s been waiting for is finally here. Too bad it’s tagged to shit (thanks DTP). I’m sure the NoTags version will be here shortly and I’ll edit away. Also, hit the jump for the Return of Ludacris. UPDATE: BoBo fired off the version w/o those wack tags. Still clean though. Enjoy!

Skyzoo Archives #27: Peter Rosenberg Freestyle

Monday, November 17th, 2008

Courtesy of 2dopeboyz

“So at #27, I figured I’d do something a little different. This is a freestyle I did for Hot 97’s Peter Rosenberg back in 2007. For those who don’t know, Rosenberg is a DOPE radio DJ up here in NYC. He’s pretty much the hope that dudes like myself, Little Brother, Torae, Black Milk, Jay Electronica, etc, have to get burn on the air (for now. Tides will be changing soon tho!). He’s pretty much THE DUDE. So when he first came up to Hot 97, he hit me and asked for a freestyle. I of course said “no problem”, and then he said “just make sure its on a Dilla beat”. That’s when I declared that Rosenberg is THE DUDE. The thing about this freestyle though, is that its REALLY a freestyle. The concept of a freestyle is starting to become ancient, and thats corny. I grew up freestyling all day, every day, every where, and most new rappers can’t say the same. So I literally walked in the booth and freestyled, start to finish, one take, off the dome. I then listened to it a few times to learn it and proceeded to do the ad libs. I sent it to Pete that afternoon and he played it that same night, and then again, and again, for the next 4 Sundays. Like I said, he’s THE DUDE. So once again, this is my Peter Rosenberg Freestyle from 2007 for his Hot 97 show. Enjoy. PS: the mixtape and the album are both so close to completion its scary. I promise you, the tape (The Power Of Words) is a rewind button’s wet dream, and the album (The Salvation) is everything the record store shelves ISN’T. Holla.”

While perusing the Internets this weekend, I came across this new track over at Che’s crib, but since the first link was kinda fucked up, I had to wait ’til he upgraded. Does this means Everything’s Good Ugly is coming soon?

Never Say Never Tour Vlog (Video)

Monday, November 17th, 2008

Courtesy of 2dopeboyz

If you are unaware of the Never Say Never Tour, you’re missing out. Consisting of Joe Budden, Royce Nickel Nueve, D12 & Classified… the tour is bound to be dope as fuck! 4PLAE.com has started a tour blog and has posted the first episode which features performance footage, brief convos and more. Now to get my blogger on. Does anyone else feel D12 (the name) should be put to rest? I mean… Proof passed (R.I.P.) and Eminem is M.I.A. What’s the point of even calling yourself D12 other than living off past fame? I enjoy all their music; so this isn’t a dig (yep, I just stole it from you haha) but an honest opinion. Start a new group if you four wanna do projects, etc. Something. And now to get my Shake on. Here goes the first single off Classified’s upcoming album that the homie Greg shot through a little while ago.
