NaS, Common & Q-Tip reportedly set to form super group The Standard

Back in 2007, Q-Tip & Common announced that they were to form a super group called The Standard - however nothing came to light, in a similar vein to that of CRS (KanYe, Lupe & Pharrell). However, in a recent interview with NYDN, NaS said that he "definitely" plans on doing an album with Tip & Comm in the future, fuelling speculation that the duo could well become a trio. Kamaal is currently working on his third studio album, and the follow up to 'The Renaissance', while NaS is readying his next LP 'Life Is Good'. We can live in hope.

Chiddy Bang - Happening (Feat. VV Brown) x Talking to Myself

Two of favourite tracks from Chiddy Bang's highly anticipated debut album 'Breakfast', which dropped today in America and will be released next week in the UK. Both tracks possess all of the distinctive qualities that have made people fall in love with the alternative Hip-Hop duo over the past few years - refreshing beats, clever samples, infectious choruses, dope bars and Chiddy's undeniably cool flow. This album is basically everything that Lupe Fiasco wanted to achieve with 'Lasers', but a much more cohesive project, with a much better concept. Pre-order HERE.

Big Boi - Royal Flush (Feat. Raekwon & André 3000) (Urban Noize Remix)

Urban Noize, the ever-impressive production duo from Florida, take on a cut from Big Boi's 2010 debut solo LP 'Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty', and put their own unique head-nodding twist on it. I still believe that André 3000's verse on this is one of the greatest verses of all-time, and this version is a superb alternative to the original - 3 Stacks album soon, please.
