So, what have we learned in 2009? Raekwon is more trustworthy than Dr. Dre. No one believed either of ’em when we were told that Only Built 4 Cuban Linx… Pt. II and Detox would drop in our lifetimes (R.I.P. to those that didn’t make it long enough), but Rae..

They say a picture is worth a thousand words — I can work with that. That should mean that instead of writing an extensive introduction about our latest Beat Drop honoree, one Timothy Mosley, I can simply show a picture and be good. And for that picture, I ask you..

Their album, Dave..
(Image courtesy of Nah Right) The homeboy Sammy hit me off with some news on Halfway House, Joe Budden’s appetizer to next year’s long-awaited Padded Room. It’s due out on October 28th — I’m used to saying “in stores” when albums are due out, but this one is only being..
