[Mixtape] Busta Rhymes and Q-Tip: "The Abstract and the Dragon"
Pretty much anyone who grew up in the '90s (actually who doesn't know this song) knows A Tribe Called Quest's "Scenario" featuring Busta Rhymes. It was one of the biggest hits to come out of the Native Tongues collective, and one of those songs that, no matter where you are, you have to sing along with Bust's line "RRRRAOWR, RRRRAOW, like a dungeon dragon". It's actually very interesting that Busta and Tip haven't done a project together before this.
As the trailer to the project showed us, these two icons came up together and are the bestests of friends. Their chemistry is undeniable and I really hope we get to see them tour together next year. Last week, MTV released Busta's "Thank You" track featuring Yeezus and Weezy that will be on Busta's E.L.E. (Extinction Level Event) 2. Earlier this week, we got visuals for the track, and last night, the interwebs was treated to the full mixtape, The Abstract and the Dragon. Filled with the Abstract's production and classics, this is a must download for any head or any new music lover that hasn't heard some any of these classics. You can download and stream the mixtape below.

Busta Rhymes: "Thank You" (feat. Q-Tip, Kanye West, & Lil Wayne)
Looks like Busta Rhymes has come out of hibernation and returns with a new single ,"Thank You," off of his upcoming album, E.L.E. (Extinction Level Event) 2. The track is signature Busta, and along with him on the track are Q-Tip, Kanye West, and Lil Wayne, bringing their own flavor to the song. We are accustomed to Busta's style, and he sticks to the formula that has worked for him all these years. With a funky soulful sample, the track is something to vibe to, so go ahead and check out the latest from Busta Rhymes.
