If you’re confused like me about the status of Redman’s career, you are not alone. Reggie quietly dropped a few weeks ago and if you missed out, you aint missing nothing.

Curren$y’s been flying high all year round. And in November, he ascended to new heights with the release of Pilot Talk II. If you were one of the few to actually find the actual disc, Hot Spitta lived up to his alias on tracks like “Michael Knight”, “Flight Briefing”. He solidified his gangsta (“A Gee”) and explored new surroundings (“Real Estates”). But even with the diverse subject matter, Curren$y stays true to his stoner core and is golden on “Silence”.  […]

Although many wipe the slate clean for the New Year, Ras Kass and Game are showing no signs of burying the hatchet. Over the weekend, the rappers got into another fight inside a club.
