After His highly Anticipated Debut"Amplified" which Debuted at #28 on the Pop
charts, Q-tip wasn't very happy, about the disappointing debut on the charts,
after having his first solo#1 w/ "Vibrant Thang", Q-tip talks it up w/ VIBE
magazine, which he's featured on the Cover, (By the way I thought you had to
have a hit record and have a huge Impact on the music Industry to get a spot
on the Cover) Better try again(Artist), You might have another
chance....Q-tip talks about, spending many of his days at Paisley Park and
learning from The Artist,his new friend, The Artist was also present at
(Tips) Record Release Party where HipHop Mogul Jay Z was accused and arrested
for the stabbing of an HipHop executive, Q-tip says The Artist has been
getting out alot lately, and he thinks thats because of Larry Graham, for
whom the rapper has alot of respect for, but Q-tip can relate w/ The Artist
on a few things, he's also not into Interviews, and heavy Promotion he'd
rather have the music speak for itself, but realizes his silence may have
contributed to the failure of his latest release also on Arista! The Two also
have Plans on working together again in the mere future,As for the present
Q-tip can be heard free stylin on T.G.R.E.S f/ on the Maxi Single
release...By the way which debuted at #6 and is currently at #11 on the Maxi
Singles Charts...
