The Hip-Hop online world was going coconuts yesterday as Kon-yeezy's
Graduation album leaked early. The early response is already hailing Kanye's third album as a classic. Don't think that this has any impact on the Sept. 11th showdown between him and 50 Cent because there are reports that 50's album was also leaked around the same time period. I got my money on Kanye. But I guess technically I'm gonna have my money on both them bastards since I'm gonna buy both albums. Oh well.
Since I'm on the topic of rappers from Chicago and New York I hear that Common and Q-Tip are reported to be forming a new rap group called The Standard. The two backpack icons are supposedly releasing their collabortive effort under Universal records. Common's new album is banannas but where thou hell has Q-Tip art been all thou years? (n-ggas were speaking like this since the last time they heard from him...yeah I already know. Corny. Go buy a life.)
