Finally, Ras Kass is getting a bit of respect. Watch out for his official website to launch soon. Priority also claim that an EP release will drop before the album comes out on October 23rd, which may well be true seeing that an EP release would probably compensate for a single and video release. How is he expected to blow when he releases two albums and only one video?

Q-Tip's sophomore solo album, "Kamaal The Abstract" has been pushed back to January 2002. Apparently, Tip...sorry, Kamaal wants to film a short film to accompany the release.

Veteran hiphop artist, Masta Ace will finally release his brand new album, "Disposable Arts" on October 30th. The album will apparently be on a story theme, similar to the style of Sticky Fingaz's "Black Trash" album. This album will be Masta Ace's first in more than five years and will be released on Domingo's Yosumi Records, distributed by JCOR. Tracks such as the latest single "Don't Understand" and diss track "Acknowledge" will all make the album, which also features a whole host of guest appearances.
