A track of the Red Cafe – Hottest In the Hood Mixtape hosted by Diddy.
This is one of those lost gems that most people don’t get to here. Check out the “California Dreaming” Sample for all the sample-heads out there. Just another little audio proof tidbit.

This one is amazing right here. Everyone knows Illmind is crazy on the beats, but the lineup for this project is insane. Common, Scarface, Ed OG, Youg Buck and many many more. Enough talk, just get it and listen.

It’s 50. Yeah he has his ups and downs, some downs more than ups lately, but when it’s free, it’s worth giving 50 a shot. This is thing has got some BANGERS for real. I’d much rather listen to one of 50 cents mixtapes before I listen to one of 50’s albums anyday. This is more like “Get Rich or Die Tryin” 50 than the newer over-produced junk.
