Whats mainstream about having Hi-Tek on there, they've worked together for years, and Kweli had Kanye on Quality before he was even that famous. Need to hear the Neptunes and Just Blaze tracks to judge them. I really don't like Midi Mafia though, everything I've hear from them has been pretty boring.

Just Blaze's is fuckin sick.
Neptunes is a banger.

One of the best albums of the past few years. Easily.

Yeah I know, but Hi-Tek seems to be the new "go to" producer, and apparently close to being a Aftermath in-house producer soon..

who gives a flying fuck if its a so called "mainstream" lineup.. thats the dumbest shit ive ever read. if the beats are hot who really cares.. but nah i suppose talib shoulda gone for dilla and left hi-tek out so he could repeat his 200,000 copies sold again.. stay underground and be poor.. gay
