Bekay To Remix Hunger Pains With New EP
DXnext emcee Bekay released his Hunger Pains album in November on Coalmine Records. The full-length featured appearances from Masta Ace ("Brooklyn Bridge" ) and R.A. The Rugged Man amidst production from The Alchemist, J.R. Rotem and DJ Babu.
This week it was announced that Coalmine will be releasing a remix EP from Hunger Pains. The digital and vinyl collection features new mixes from M-Phazes, DJ Qvali and others.
Matt Diamond, CEO of Coalmine, made the following statement regarding the release of The Hunger Pains Remix EP. "As a label, Coalmine places a strong emphasis on the producer as well as the artist and there's not a better way to breath new life into a previously existing record than by creating a remix. The idea to release The Hunger Pains Remix EP is inspired largely from the days of when classic albums would be followed up with a 12" or vinyl EP that would contain otherwise nearly impossible to find remixes. The concept of collecting and 'digging' for those hard to find gems is an element of the culture that has shifted from record stores to downloads. Although the experience has changed, the end result is the same...dope music."
The tracklisting is as follows:
Tracklisting: 1. "I Am" (Remix) feat. Dilated Peoples
2. "I Am" [NODFACTOR.com Remix] (prod. by DJ Qvali)*
3. "Brooklyn Bridge" [Part II] feat. Sha Stimuli & Push! Montana
4. "Brooklyn Bridge" feat. Masta Ace (M-Phazes Remix)

Raekwon Joins Evidence in Studio
by Andres Tardio
As Evidence prepares his first album to be released via Rhymesayers Entertainment, he has decided to leak a video with some insight. The video features
Raekwon and Evidence in the studio, typing on their Blackberry phones and gearing up to record their verses over an Alchemist beat that plays in the background.
The video also comes around the same time as Evidence has promised to stop his activity on Twitter until the album is fully mastered. This has only intensified the buzz for Cats & Dogs. Although this title may sound as if it is connected to his last full length album, The Weatherman, it is not a sequel, as he told us last year.
"I don't like sequels," he told DX in April. "I like Jaws
. I don't like Jaws 2. For the most part, I'm just making something new. I can't do the same record twice. When I made Weatherman, it was based around a lot of dark imagery, the passing of my mom, certain things that I just really had to talk about. Since then, I've experienced a whole lot, though. I really feel like I have something to offer with this."
