New Music: Strong Arm Steady x Kobe “Talking To Myself”

Friday, January 21 2011 12:24 PM EST | Posted by: Amaya | Posted in: Blog, Music

Turns out there is an original version to track two off Eminem’s Recovery which was recorded by Strong Arm Steady back in 2007. We’ll let Krondon tell the story:

We recorded this record in August of 07 and turned it in to our formal label Warner Bros in October ( hence the A & R, Naim, is listed at the top ). If you look at the sequence you will see that it was #2 in our original tracklist. A cool fact, it ended up being the second song on the 10 time Grammy Nominated Eminem LP Recovery. I told Khalil this was a hit 5 years ago and it served to be one. Here goes our version (minus Mitchy Slick), we had planned to get Luda on this joint….Enjoy – Arms & Hammers 2.22.11

Q-Tip Fires Back At Michael Rapaport

Friday, January 21 2011 11:55 AM EST | Posted by: Big Homie | Posted in: Blog, True Story

So the saga continues. After Michael Rapaport spoke on the rift last week, Tip retreated to his Twitter account again and respond to the director’s claims regarding the ATCQ documentary.

“Speaking of 1nce again… here i some tribe chat. the director of the film cannot speak to what is in my head abt the documentary. nor can this director EVER say the i dont speak for the group. when i say i do then belive me i do. tribe is no different than any other collective. we experience bumps bruises and disagreements then and we still do.

But knowing our history and our messages in our music we will NEVER be taken advantage of like we were in the past. we dont care who it is. but we are truly thankful for your interest in our music and your interest in this flattering look at our career. if @alishaheed @jarobione or @diggymusberger says they speak for the group then THEY do. no one else! peace….”

Charges Dropped Against Yo Gotti

Friday, January 21 2011 10:11 AM EST | Posted by: B.Dot | Posted in: Blog, True Story

The Pyrex King was more like the Teflon Don on Wednesday after charges were dropped for his involvement in a Memphis club shooting last Thanksgiving. Following the court hearing, he told local Fox affiliate:

“I’m a entertainer, I’m in entertainment. I understand it, I know it’s like it’s a protocol of going through it, going through the courts and getting to this point where it gets dismissed… and we’re back to where we were at in the beginning.”
