Mr. Rozay follows Raekwon’s lead.
Ron Isley x Lauryn Hill – Close To You
It should already be a given that Ron Isley is not the type to waste time. And with Lauryn Hill?

Voli – Glass Doors (Sampler)
I came across this over on Nah Right…admittedly I noticed the J. Cole production on ‘Sunrise’ but came to find that this entire sampler is a damn good listen. Can’t wait to hear a full project…tracklisting and download link after the jump.
The Origin: Arthur Verocai – No Boca Do Sol
This is one of those samples where whoever was the first one to find it for a beat probably orgasmed on the spot from listening to it. Not to sounds blunt, but to hear it (which was released in 1972, by the way) will give you true understanding. The first time I caught on was relatively late, when 9th Wonder provided the backdrop for Ludacris’ ‘Do The Right Thing’ from Theater Of The Mind; that was 2008. MF Doom and one of his many aliases whipped up an instrumental 3 years earlier. What brought me back to this sample for the use of it on KingPen Slim’s latest project by Best Kept Secret (probably my favorite out of all three). So enjoy those below in this installment…I most definitely am.
Terrace Martin x Wiz Khalifa x Overdoz – Roll Up
Happily spotted over at 2dopeboyz:
On 9/28, Terrace Martin and Devi Dev is dropping Here, My Dear, a project inspired by Marvin Gaye’s critically acclaimed album of the same name. The project has appearances from Snoop Dogg, Wiz Khalifa, Kendrick Lamar, Charlie Wilson, James Fauntleroy, Kurupt and U-N-I.
AlBe Back – Devil In a New Dress (Freestyle)
No offense to this version, but aside from Kanye West, J. Cole is a pretty tough act to follow.
Big Boi x Andre 3000 – Lookin’ 4 Ya (Jedi Remix)
This version has two verses from each. Must have.
Willow Smith – Whip My Hair
It’s the daughter of Will Smith….give me a break. There is no doubt in my mind that this girl is going to be a megastar in her own right. I think. Expect a Fresh Prince remix somewhere down the line.

Big Sean – 100 Keys
Snipped and tagged. According to 2dopeboyz, it’s a strong possibility that Rick Ross & Clipse will appear on the final version.
