UPDATE: The song has bee mixed/mastered and Yeezy dropped it via his blawg. Mr. West is in the building. After a well needed break, (rappers take note) Yeezy returns and gives two talented artists an extremely good look while doing so. Not only does Kanye's lead single from Good Ass Job feature Detroit recording artist Dwele, it's produced by Symbolyc One (S1) (co-produced by Kanye). This joint knocks. Simple and plain.
Little Brother is back for the very last time with a new album to satisfy the yearning masses.

As the momentum behind LeftBack continues to swell, Little Brother is proud to unveil the official artwork and the track listing for the album.

Enter the days when today's rap teens & pre-teen don't do something called The Jerk and don't have a Lamborghini chain (not yet at least). Meet 11yr old VohnBeatz (L) and 15yr old M-Pak ®. The young Waco, Texas duo recorded their album in less than a week this summer and might be releasing it at the end of September. I should note that the pair are both offspring of current Hip-Hop citizens. VohnBeatz is the son of producer Symbolyc One (S1) while M-Pak's father is none other than Focus of Verbal Seed. DJ Elementz provided the cuts on this record. [via]
If you're unfamiliar with Strange Fruit Project, then that's definitely a shame. S1 aka Symbolyc One is ⅓ of the group along with Myth & Myone. He does double duty as an emcee and the group's producer. S1 feels he's not getting his due and gave us Still Underrated v. 1 to put us all up to speed. [via]
