www.dubcnn.comDubcnn connected with the legendary MC Ren for an interview to get the scoop on the villain's upcoming album "Renincarnated", which is dropping later this year. Ren tells us about his upcoming single, what we can expect from the album, why it was so long in the making and what his mindstate was when recording it. He talks about why he chose to make this a true solo record and have no features on it, and who he chose to produce for him. We then talk about the state of Hip-Hop, new artists, his relationship with Dr. Dre, and his take on the digital world. Check it out:Exclusive Interview With MC Ren (July '09)In addition to the interview, we also have the final mix CDQ version of the first single, "Renincarnated", which we brought you last week. The original version we were sent wasn't the correct mix, we've just received an updated version, check it out below:MC Ren - Renincarnated (Final Mix)This is stream only. Look for the downloadable version dropping on iTunes soon.
Dubcnn: Not necessarily buying it, cause ain't too many West Coast artists even dropping albums for you to listen to them, but I'm saying..Oh yeah, online and shit. I got love for Daz, Kurupt, niggas like that, I got love for them. I've never met The Game personally, but he's still my nigga. He came out and represented for us, when he came out he was putting it out, he's tight. Niggas like that. Crazy Toones, Cube, all them niggas. But as far as new artists, it's a billion muthafuckas coming out every day trying to be rappers! I ain't even gonna say MC's, cause it's only a few MC's. I'm saying just rappers. Everybody and their mama trying to be rappers! So it's like, we can't even keep up with all that shit! It's like a plague spreading and shit, everyday new artists. A lot of these muthafuckas be wack. Everybody ain't gotta get into Hip-Hop and do music! Nigga go play a violin, play bass, play a guitar, play jazz. They might have more luck in that shit! Cause these niggas just be garbage, niggas is garbage. A lot of these muthafuckas don't have no directions! Shit ain't evolving with these niggas. Niggas is wack out hereCan't say it any better myself

Dubcnn: Subject matter wise, you seemed to have always stayed on the same tip that you were on in the N.W.A. days. You never changed your formula, as opposed to a lot of your old partners. Is that what we can expect from the new album? Raw & uncut?It's just me. I don't know how to explain it, it's just me. I ain't changed. To me, I got tighter. When you hear the whole album, you'll be like "the nigga got tighter!" Back when we did a lot of them records, niggas was hella young, voice wasn't even really matured and shit. I'm tighter now. I'm not saying that on no cocky shit, but I'm just saying, to me, I feel tighter.
