Here
is a brand new Dj Quik track featuring Suga Free from the upcoming "True
Crime" video game soundtrack. Its called "Dont Fight The Pimpin"
and it samples the 80's song by One Way called "Wild Night". Quik fans
will be familiar with this beat, because its not the first time Quik sampled this
track, he did it on "Can I Eat It?" on the "Safe + Sound"
album, so did Too Short on "Don't Fight the Feeling" from his "Life
Is...Too Short" album. Click

Its
here! Knoc-Turn'al got down with Snoop Dogg for the very first time on a track
to record the Remix to his new single "The Way I Am". It has the same
beat produced by Scott Storch & same hook but brand new verses. They shot
a video to the Remix so expect that in a couple weeks. This should help push Knoc's
upcoming album which has the same title as the lead single, "The Way I Am".

| Brand New
Audio by Tha Chill!
We
got some brand new audio by Tha Chill of Compton's Most Wanted. The new cut is
from Chill's upcoming first solo album "Chill Factor". Its called "Verbatim"
and features Tha Eastsidaz.
"Its the autobiography, word for word. Goldie Loc starts off, talkin about
this sister Pancake, who got killed, when some guys came in and shot her up, and
he saw the murderer. I talk about how I grew up and Tray Deee is talkin about
when he was in the pen. This is a real heavy hitter", Tha Chill said.
Chill wasnt lyin, the track is a heater and can be heard by clicking right here:
"Verbatim".
Also
here is the first single from Tha Chill's album, which was requested a while ago.
Its called "Smoke
Dis FNJ" and features Jayo Felony & Mc Eiht, along with the Instrumental
of "Smoke Dis FNJ".
"I
felt that us three, being OG's back in the game artists, I didnt want to put new
artists on there. I wanted to keep it the same kind of format as back then as
far as people, but up-to date sounding for whats going on now. The single is definitely
a highlight on the album. We came up with the hook from the Poor Richeous Teachers
"Rock This Funky Joint", and we just made it some gangsta shit. We strictly
West Coast, but this song is universal. Its East, its Down South, its Midwest,
but we made it for the West Coast specifically, and for other people to grab hold
of it", Chill added.
The
track "Hub City" is dedicated to the City of Compton, and it also features
another Comptown resident, CMW's Mc Eiht.
The
album has more guest appearances by Nate Dogg, Snoop Dogg, RBX on "Long Overdue",
Kokane on "Late Night Hype", a remake of CMW's classic track from the
group's debut in 89.
You
will definitely be feeling "The Chill Factor", regardless of wherever
you are in the world. The irony is that this one brings heat. Look for the album
in stores early 2004. This is a tentative album cover:
