We didn't think it possible, but DMX has fought back from the realm of crapness and produced a banger. It's called Already, and it's on this episode. Devine Bars on the beat. Along with a whole bunch of other funky shit...
...from Mpisi, Triplife, Maestro, Little Brother, Joe Scudda, Pete Rock, Subbz, Clueso, Galactic, Juvenile (trust me) and Snazz.
By the way, big up to Snazz for taking home the Sprite MC Africa competition. He wins a video with Wordsworth, $10,000 and a slightly used roll of toilet paper. Woohoo!

South African hip-hop lost something this past weekend. Creeper, an MC known to all hip-hop heads in Grahamstown and the Eastern Cape, and one of the nicest, most genuine dudes around, died on Friday night.
This episode is all his. Tracks he would have and did like: Common, Titus Track, Scienz of Life and Optical Illusion. One of his joints too, plus a little freestyle from the Hiphocalypse show.
We'll miss you buddy.
(The pic I have is enormous - if anyone has a slightly smaller pic of Creeper, let me know, otherwise the one I have will be up shortly)

Pete Rock + Jim Jones = least likely team-up ever. Amazing tune though: We Roll. NY'S FINEST IN STORES NOW!
They didn't pay me, promise. Fresh remixes from Kweli and Jay-Z with a little help from Joell Ortiz, Battlekat, Blu and Nina Sky, plus some jawns from Titus Track (Stand Up!), Rasco, Marco Polo and Mick Boogie.
Packed full of fresh, minty goodness. Start your week off right.

20 MCs? On ONE TRACK?!?! Fuck me. Such is DJ IQ's monster, 8 Bars of Fire. MCs are (deep breath...): TB, Dubbledge, Big Deal, Stig of the Dump, Iron Braydz, Verb T, Kaspa Troy, Kashmere, Dramacide, Mr Ti2bs, Asaviour, Kyza, Sir Smurf Lil', Foreign Beggars, Arrogance, Jack Flash, The Dinner Lady P.I.M.P and Jehst. Oh wow.
They're not alone though. Kids in the Hall, Ewok, Infinite and Swollen Members are along for the ride.
Hell yeah.

Method Man and Redman. Not exactly the worst rap team-up ever. We'll be at their live show later this month, but we thought we'd remind you why they're so good. Check out their update of Smooth Da Hustla and Trigga Da Gambla's Broken Language. Dope. Ness.
That, plus joints from Explicit, Eli, Donnie Brasco, Evidence and Zubz (whose live show we also caught this week)
20/20. The finest radio show on planet earth.*
