Did anyone inform you this was ever actually going to be released?

I stopped holding my breath in 2003. Now I watch Prison Song and accept that's the only Q-Tip performance I will be receiving.

i see me and you want the same thing. 'cept i need mint condition to.

I am really looking forward to new albums by:

Kate Bush
Tori Amos
and The Tears
The Tears are the new Band by Brett Anderson and Bernard Butler of Suede who reunited again. I can´t wait to hear their album.

I don't think that's true. Dwayne was on "Rifle Love" from Raphael's new album and he recently said in an interview that they've already recorded new songs for the album.

GangstaFam said:

Well I mean, come on, if they've been reunited this long, surely some new music should come out of it.

5 more:

Dre 3000 did promise a long time ago that we can expect some new product from Outkast.
Pylon is releasing a new box set.
I'm also looking forward to that new project with Mick Jones and Tony James called Carbon/Silicon.
The Cure's Faith album is being remastered too. That's my favorite one from their Post-Punk/Goth era.
And I heard Imani Coppola's releasing something new.



Chinese Democracy? Yeah right.

Oh ok because it was everywhere that they were coming out in November

CinisterCee said:

No, Not Kamaal the Abstract(though the bootleg is tidin' me over on that one!)... his new album, Open, is supposed to drop in 2005...I'm just hopin' the same thing doesn't happen to this album, but already the dates keep getting pushed back...

You must haven't seen Jay-Z's movie Fade To Black.Tip was in it

paligap said:

ABeautifulOne said:

Didn't catch it, no

CinisterCee said:

Well, He left Arista and signed with Dreamworks, which was supposed to give him more freedom, but we'll see...so far, it sounds like he's gettin'the shaft there, too...

paligap said:

Even Ali Shaheed could get his album out there. C'mon, Dreamworks

CinisterCee said:

Good movie you should catch it when it comes to DVD

I heard 2Pac is working on a new joint too.

CinisterCee said:

Dreamworks is no more...it's been sucked up by the Geffen label. Case-in-point, why Sleepy Brown's For The Grown And Sexy was never released and he's now signed to OutKast's Purple Music Label.

Now that I think about it you are right because Sleepy was promoting that album and we haven't heard it yet

okaypimpn said:

Gotcha! That explains a lot....Tip, you're gonna have to go indie, man...Put it out yourself!!

00. Prince

01. Radiohead

02. Tori Amos

03. Bjork

04. Beck

05. ( yes indeed: )

paligap said:

Tip has never gone indie before, really. I could see him writing another "Breathe And Stop" just to stay signed.

TTD/Sananda - Angels & Vampires
Janet
Maxwell
D'Angelo

Do you know something we don't?

GangstaFam said:

It's the 8th Anniversary Edition remaster of NewPower Soul, featuring a second disc with 8 previously unreleased remixes of "Freaks on this Side" and a liner notes essay by Tina Graham about the various kinds of towels used during the making of NPS.

I know this is technically a New Power Generation release, but Prince figured it would be more confusing if he rereleased it under the glyph name.

I'm hearing about a number of releases (some via this thread) that have me excited:

Tony Toni Tone
Q-Tip (I've been waiting for the release of Open)
Alana Davis (Both of her albums are incredible)
Cree Summer (I loved Street Faerie)
Stevie Wonder
OutKast
Res (How I Do had some serious tracks on it)
Nikka Costa
Maxwell

That's hot.

GangstaFam said:

nah, I don't know anything more than anyone else on the org, but I have
this strange feeling that he'll release a "lost" album on the npgmc
in 2005. Something like "Madrid 2 Chicago" or such.

even though most female MC's don't really blow up now a days unless your Missy.....here is who i have heard rumors of and what I am waiting for...



1. Lauryn Hill....singing is lovely,but really love her as an MC hopefully she will suprise us in the New Year.

2. Yo-Yo....I read on 2 different sites that the once Ice Cube protege and West Coast hip hop Diva is set to return,hasn't been in the studio since 98 for her shelved album EbonyPetey Pablo is on deck for a collabo.

3. Jean Grae...Jeanius GraesyGod I love this woman,she is pretty consistant in releasing music,so she wont let 2005 roll out with out something.

4. Remy Ma....Terror Squad rhyme vixen set to release Something about Remy another chick I am waiting on to drop.

5. Foxy Brown...supposed to have inked some kind of deal with Jay-Z,so who knows maybe Ill Nana 2 da Fever will see the light of day.

6. Trina....although 3 songs leaked in 2004,her 3rd album The Glamorous Life is set for release in 05


I am also anticipating the return of.....Rah-Digga,Eve,a good Lil'Kim album not that Bull shit she been puttin out.Something from Bahamadia would be nice God where is she???
