One time for your mind..

Two of the best things to happen to Hip-Hop in recent memory,
9th Wonder and Travis McCoy met up about a week ago to kick it and toss around some ideas.



Whatever they're cookin up has gotta be stupid!

9th Wonder's latest album, "The Wonder Years", was supposed to drop last week. I haven't seen it up for sale (or download) yet, but I'm sure I'll get my hands on it soon - bear with me..

9th Wonder describes the album's sound as 'classic R&B with a current [Hip-Hop] twist' - sounds like trademark 9th to me. The difference with this album is that he wants to reach a broader audience. He's trying to give Hip-Hop heads an alternative to the usual Rap/R&B you hear on the radio and TV. There are features by Talib Kweli, Q-Tip, Mos Def, Little Brother, Erykah Badu, and more.

Here's one of the tracks that leaked off the album called "Only Knew" featuring Styles P. and some R&B dude. lol.
(I tried to get a Zshare link for ya'll but that site's cuttin up right now.)



Gym Class Heroes has a new album coming later this year titled "Music on a CD". Aside from GCH, Travis has also been working on his side projects with Bernie Allen (Schleprok & SEI1) and Tequila Mockingbird (Travis & Nicholas Scimeca).

Here's a link to the original Bernie Allen LP, "Who Is Bernie Allen?". Don't take that lightly...this is one of my favorite joints - Bernie Allen is the illest. Travis does some of his best emceeing on this one. I can't wait to see what they do when they re-work this for an official release.
