9th Wonder 300x199 Download: 9th Wonder Presents: 9th Invented The Remix (AGAIN) [Mixtape]9th Wonder returns with his second installment of the 9th Invented the Remix (AGAIN). 9th Wonder released his original remix project was back in 2003 after the success of Little Brother’s The Listening. The new mixtape has some notable hip-hop and R&B remixes. Some of the highlights include Little Brother’s – “Not Enough (More)” (9th Wonder STILL Ain’t Enough Remix), Tweet’s – “Turn Da Lights Off” (9th Wonder Oh No You Didn’t Remix) which samples Teddy Pendergrass’ “Turn Off The Lights” remixed with 9th wonder’s drums. Some of the other R&B remixes were a bit underwhelming, but he did remix “Wordplay” by A Tribe Called Quest so there’s still a lot to like on here. Please let us know the what you think. Props to Eskay

Tentative Release Date:  Spring/2010

Producers/Collaborators: Phonte (of Little Brother), Blu, Cody Chesnutt

What We Know: The Roots are set to release their ninth studio album How I Got Over. The album title comes from a Mahalia Jackson gospel song of the same name. The band has described the new LP as upbeat, funky with political influences. The title track was first premiered on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon in June 2009. According to ?uestlove, Phonte recorded three to five tracks for the album. Here’s hoping the live version of “How I Got Over” makes the final cut it because its clearly superior to the studio version.

Welcome to the weekly rundown where we (soulsupreme and Marty) provide you with our top ten headlines for the week that was.

  1. Goodie Mob reunion show. If this means the whole group is getting back together, we have to admit we’re a little excited to see what comes of this. But if it’s just a reunion show? Eh, it’s difficult to look forward to a one-off concert.
  2. VH1 Hip-hop honours Def Jam special. This year the event honoured 25 years at Def Jam, which included artists like Public Enemy, EPMD, Beastie Boys, LL Cool J, etc. Black Thought and Eminem honoured LL with a special performance of “Rock The Bells”. The VH1 special will air Oct.13th.
  3. Jay-Z: “Lets be clear, no one is scared of 50 Cent.” Honestly, it’s a moot point. Kanye West would never do that to 50 Cent to because Fiddy never wins any awards.

Welcome to the weekly rundown where we (soulsupreme and Marty) provide you with our top ten headlines for the week that was.

  1. Beastie Boys album gets pushed back, MCA diagnosed with cancer. Hopefully MCA makes a full recovery soon, which is expected since the cancer is treatable. There’s way too much death going on of late.
  2. Ma Dukes and J Dilla’s heirs succeed in legal battle. After all the hardships Ma Dukes has gone through with J Dilla’s estate since his passing, it’s great to know the right people will be receiving the money now.
  3. Method Man & Joe Budden squash the beef at Rock The Bells. It’s good to see petty beefs come to an end, but damn, a series of Slaughterhouse and Wu-Tang diss tracks would have been nice.

Welcome to the weekly rundown where we (soulsupreme and marty) provide you with our top ten headlines for the week that was.

  1. The Joe Budden versus Method Man feud continues. Both artists called into Power 105.1 and exchanged jabs this week. Why don’t they just battle it out face to face? Somebody get Don King on the phone!
  2. Super-producer Solaar proclaims the Dirty South isn’t hip-hop. Peep the 2:30-minute mark of that video. Guru’s career is tanking by the minute. How the mighty have fallen. He’s taking a page from Mobb Deep’s book on bad career moves.
  3. XXL July Cover (Soulja Boy, OJ Da Juiceman, Shawty Lo & Gucci Mane). Journalism lost if they gotta put those rappers on a cover to sell magazines. Who’s reading that? That’s the best we have to offer in hip-hop?

  1. Nude pictures of Cassie and Rihanna surface over the internet. Who said hackers were bad? Christmas comes early this year!
  2. The Smoking Gun reveals a story confirming Alfamega was a snitch for the DEA. What happened to stop snitching? Rappers seem to be indirectly petitioning for the ‘start snitching’ campaign…lol
