I'm just discovering Q-Tip's new album and already I love what I hear. Of particular interest is any hip-hop song that nails the rhyme crossed with female vocals blend.Whenever that participating female is Norah Jones, the song is instantaneously rated higher in my book. Some of my previous posts have touched on her work prior to stardom as the ambient vocaiist for Wax Poetic. While hardly hip-...

This slinky funk, sample-stitched new song from Q-Tip is pretty much the jam. "Life Is Better" features Norah Jones, she of cool covers and platinum wigged fame, singing the track's main motif as if she's already years deep in the new soul/hip-hop-hook racket. Actually it's NoJo's first such collab, and she sorta dominates the playing time with Kamaal backing her up (after two minutes) with jus...

Sadly, I don’t own The Renaissance. I know, I’m ashamed, but I have heard fresh selects from the album, but not “Life Is Better.” Just saw the video for this Hip Hop love song just moments ago, and already it makes me feel happy. There’s more behind the nasal-y-gifted lyricist ( I love his nasal voice, too!) [...]

Last year Q-Tip had an album called The Renaissance and it was brilliant. Still is, as a matter of fact. And on that album Tip had a track with Norah Jones called “Life Is Better” and it was good as well. Today, you’ll see the video for that song and can watch this jazz-lovin’ duo hold some optimism up high. Booyakasha?

Q-Tip's Renaissance, released in 2008, was one of the few hip hop albums that was good through and through. "Life is Better," along with "ManWomanBoogie," were some of the standout tracks. I had no idea Norah Jones was on the track, but well--that makes me like her all the more. Enjoy:

Just a couple weeks after the proper release of his once-shelved album Kamaal the Abstract, Q-Tip is back with a new video for Life is Better from The Renaissance, his critically acclaimed return that was one of my favorites of 2008.Much like the revered Midnight Marauders album cover(s), this is Q-Tip’s ode to hip-hop – [...]

An abridged version of Q-Tip's ode to hip hop, from last year's The Renaissance, now has a very cool video, in spite/because of some cartoonishly dorky, family reunion-caliber dance moves from Tip and Norah.In other news, Kamaal the Abstract finally saw a proper release last month after eight years of wasting away in album purgatory, and you can stream it at Q-Tip's MySpace and wonder why bad t...

This album is damn near a year old and Q-Tip is thankfully still releasing videos for it. For this single he gets Norah Jones to contribute her sultry voice to the song and the video and it makes the already smooth song even smoother. I can definitely groove out to this song and listen to [...]
