With Q-Tip on the beat, Kanye recruits Talib Kweli and Consequence for the latest installment of G.O.O.D. Friday. Actually, it’s a bonus cut off My Beautiful Dark Twitsed Fantasy. Alright, okay!

Some things never change. A year ago, Charles Hamilton got his ass handed to him by Serius Jones at S.O.B.’s. And yesterday at the Figs Barbershop in Harlem, the same thing happened again. On a more positive note, at least Chuck is out of that wheelchair.

Like many expected, Kanye canceled his upcoming Black Friday performance at Rockefeller Center. The decision comes after his rant two days ago regarding the Today show.

Overall, this project proves why he is such a vital part of the Maybach crew. Definitely keep this one on repeat for a while.
