Q-Tip’s Renaissance, Arrives Early Due to Consumer Demand Link October 31 Q-Tip’s first Universal Motown album, 'The Renaissance,' will be out in stores November 4, but is available now for digital download due to overwhelming consumer demand. iTunes, Rhapsody, Amazon MP3, Walmart MP3, MySpace, and Napster are all now selling the album. "The online demand to hear the new Q-Tip album was so high that we worked with all of our digital retail partners to make the album available for purchase to their consumers before the planned street date,” Cameo Carlson, SVP of Digital Business Development for Universal Motown Republic Group, said. “We're excited to be able to have the flexibility to respond so quickly to Tip's fans and allow them the opportunity to purchase." The early release hasn’t stopped the former A Tribe Called Quest star from promoting though. The rap star recently did a 30-minute set for VH1 Soul’s "SoulStage," set to air next week. Past “Soulstage” performers included Jill Scott, Raphael Saadiq, and Erykah Badu. Tip joked with the audience, extolled presidential nominee Obama, and performed old and new hits with a three-piece live band. “VH1’s Soulstage: Q-Tip presented by Infiniti” will premiere November 3 at 9 p.m. eastern time. | |

I've always had a crush on Q-tip for as long as I can remember. I love just about everything he does, he's so down to earth. If I could only meet him in person or see him live, it would be so dreamy But for now, I will definitely be going out to get his album after I go vote of course.... I love "Gettin Up" and I love "Moving" even more. Hope his album is a winner. I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |
