Q-Tip is back with “The Renaissance”
Q-Tip is about to drop his first full-length album in nine years!!! The much anticipated record, entitled “The Renaissance”, will be released via Universal / Motown on November 4 (the same day as the US general election).
The newly released single is called Getting Up, and and Tip is sounding just as good as ever. If the rest of the album is anything like this, it could be a contender for album of the year.
However, we must take into account the KoRn feature which rounded out “Amplified” last time around. WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?!? SHAME ON YOU TIP. SHAME ON YOU DILLA. It took me these nine long years to get that sour taste out of my mouth!
My concern is the political-tinged release date of “The Renaissance” and it’s album opening Obama sample could be a bad start to another potentially banging record, especially considering the test of time (and a plausible McCain victory). Let’s all just pray that Jonathan Davis doesn’t appear on that Barack track.
