Download: Fair - "After The ENd"
The homie Fair released his solo project some weeks ago and I've finally found time to say a few words about it. Undoubtedly, this album stayed in rotation in the headphones since I first downloaded it. From jump with the short intro, Fair lets the world know that he ain't here for playing games. Informing the listeners that at the end of the day, he's that emcee that his fans can, do, and will continue to love him as. As the album plays on, he reassures us that he isn't going anywhere using skillful story telling lyricism with the help of perfectly matched production sound.
From topics ranging from getting back to his roots on the mic, to his own unique and ingenious version of an "Used To Love H.E.R." kind of track, to the struggles of relationships with women, Fair seems to have every angle covered subject-wise on "After The eNd". With features such as Jitta on the Track, Aaliyah Scott, Big Stat, not to forget his homie Mook, and more, he mixes just the right amount of help that doesn't overshadow his own talent on this joint. Not to mention production from DJ Semi, P Boogie, D-Lux, Ralphie O from Royce Music Group, No I.D., and even a J Dilla track, along with a few others.
Weeks after this being released, and as I sit here writing this and bumpin' the album simultaneously, I still find it to be a great project that everyone can find something they personally love about it. Download the joint for yourself and for FREE and hear exactly what I'm talking about. Dude can rap. Plain and simple. Dopeness.

Q's Reality Show Song Featuring Black Thought?
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNyfi8VywIR60UFkqy-ZNUG2lQFai9cNfleMouxPODyiHxwWanU4NXnw2GUkAZyFuOoWMKmlLJ2ffn5BJbiMTUe09Kkbf9ywOZuI2qQk-Ewmk5wrOewix30pSV3s0XRRNjHWSByQ/s320/black-thought.jpg)
I coincidentally found this record off Okayplayer.com's website just a few minutes after reading my co-blogger's post titled "The Road To Reality Television". Ridiculous. The timing of his post, the discovery of this song, Black Thoughts' insane lyricism, and J Dilla's production prowess. This is off of an upcoming album called Jay Stay Paid. J$P is a 25 track collection of unreleased (some have leaked) Dilla beats mixed and arranged by Pete Rock. The project is mostly instrumental, but includes vocals from Black Thought, DOOM, Raekwon, Illa J, Blu, Havoc, M.O.P. and more.
