Apparently, Dukie is being charged with swagger jacking in the first degree. Allegedly, he ripped the track “Shinin'” from producer Black Spade and is claiming it as his own. Hit the jump to read an email Spade sent Fresh Selects regarding the fuckery.
Here’s somethin’ new from the blokes across the pond, DJ Frinkton and the Lovesoul DJs.
“The tape is hosted by all members of the Wu-Tang Clan, and contains interview snippets with RZA and Method Man, that can be seen in full on Lovesoul.TV. The Lovesoul DJ’s state, ‘The RZA and Method Man interviews
were really insightful and we cannot wait to share them. It was great
working with them and the other Clan members to create something very
unique and nostalgic. It’s rich with feelings of great times in
hip-hop.”
Great, I’ll support anything that’ll make me forget about 8 Diagrams. *downloads now* Hit the jump for tracklisting.

[…] “Can I Speak to You,” produced by DJ Pain 1 and featuring ScHoolboy Q, is the best track on the project. The beat is lush and sample-forward, in a dusky, early-2000s Just Blaze lane.
