After months of delays, it looks like 24 Hour Karate School is finally gonna see the light of day on September 21st. A new site was launched to support the release and that’s where I noticed a change in the tracklist; compared to the previously shown one. The main issue being that Mos Def seems to have been completely taken off the project (even Prowler 2). I’ve gotta be honest… can’t say I’m too excited about the release; as I’ve already heard over half the 11 tracks. *shrugs…

co-sign
No Mos? That kills a lot of interest from me.
I’m sure it’ll still be good…but not the same.
No Mos = No interest.
What the F&*k why was Mos taken off of everything? Cream of the planet & Taxi >> the rest of the tracklisting
nice
Maybe Dante Flaco and Ski Beats have a secret project in the cut?.
the mos def songs were the best ones ffs. does he actually expect anyone to buy this and we have already heard most of the tracks i don’t get some of these hip hop guys these days
Eastown J said it, theyve probably got something going on under the radar, which makes this good news everyone!
Mos was taken off because of clearance issues/label politics. Yeah, I’m not excited for this one either.
No mos = auto fail
You think you could re-upload the Mos tracks in a .zip or something Shake? I didn’t download them because I was waiting for the full project.
co-sign Hippa.
ehh we already have the mos tracks, i’ll keep them tagged as 24hks.
excited for the new currensy tracks at least.
Taxi, Aerials, Prowler 2 (w/Mos), Cream of the Planet, 24 Hour Karate School….the hell?
WHAT? NO MOS?
FUCK THAT
fuck no mos what the fuck????? they better have a mos ski beatz album in the making.. not sure if i even want to buy it now….i mostly likely would but damn…
He said why he can’t have Mos on it on an interview. Go look for it.
&he said he’ll be uploading all the Mos tracks for free download too.
Does not look dope.
what interview?
why does the amazon link have 13 tracks (2bonus instrumental tracks)but not “take off too landing”-curren$y as shown here?
That website is weak! That album cover is weak! Mos Def aint on it no more because it weak! That whole shit is weak. Like RZA said stop watering down HipHop! Dame dont even like HipHop no more he a got damn hippie.
They illegally tried to put the shit out without MOS DEF consent. He slapped they BUM ASSES with a CEASE and DESIST LETTER! See blogosphere thats that sneaky bum nigga shit Dame always tries, thats why he got 2 cribs foreclosed and Jay made $63millie! He thinks hes so smart… The hiphop community begs to differ! Men and Women Lie! NUMBERS DONT!!!!!!!!!
This…..FAILED…..EPICALLY!
SMH.
Is this 24Hour Karate School or a 2nd Curren$y album? I mean geesh hes on like 9 of the 12 songs! They took off all the hot tracks! Is it safe to say that Mos Def WAS the WHOLE PROJECT?
@B-Real
The fuck you mean consent. Why did Ski say he was going to drop all the Mos tracks, FOR FREE, once the tape drops. Quit it with your excessive exclamations.
y’all haters. this shit is going to be dope. curren$y’s the new jay. ski is the best producer in the game right now outside of 9th. keep hating, they got it on lock without you.
this project has lost it’s buzz, regardless if it was due to label politics, sample issues, artist clearance problems…I mean come on son you have Dame Dash as your financial backer WTF? someone seriously dropped the ball here
only song I want CDQ is Stalley – S.T.A.L.L.E.Y.
nooooo, i wanted a good version of Taxi, i was gonna buy this album on amazon or something but now fuck it.
this album should b down graded to a mixtape, the songs on it are leaked every where any way and the best artist is taken off, downloadable thoe
they were thinking about money instead of buzz. this could’ve been an epic thing like how everyone was waiting for that so far gone mixtape to drop and had everyone awake at crazy hours of the night/early morning. i’m not as interested in it anymore, imo… and co-sign, a lot of the tracks were already leaked. if they were smart, they would’ve added more than just the only 11 tracks to compensate for already heard material.
Wackkkkkkkkkk
im kinda thrown off cuz they say fuck the majors fuck the majors but they all still want to be on one. i guess when yo get core po money you always want it..oh well
i copped pilot talk and way kinda disappointed not in the song just the fact that the recycled those songs……….what can you do?
MOS DIDNT SLAP DAME WITH SHIT. THE LABLE SAID NO FOR MOS TO BE ON THE PROJECT THAT IS ALL
Was it not mos who coined the “24 hour karate school” moniker?
ive heard this whole shit. no thanks.
well im looking forward to it…i didnt hear any of these joints. I supports Ski, Curren$y and Dame.
Mos didnt make the album due to politics involving HIS label not clearing him at the last moment. If you watched the Ski interview youda heard it
no mos = no buy or even care about the project
LABEL POLITICS?! I thought this whole DD172 thing was an independent movement. Well damn, looks like the “wack world” got a hold of ‘em
ski explained y mos isnt going to b on the album least on the retail version. He’ll release his tracks 4 free on the release.. im still coppin tho plus ive resisted n didnt listen 2 the leaks..
you guys are seriously hating. i mean yeah mos is a HUGE part of the album (or was). But the beats are still on here. Not to mention the rappers that are featured on the album can still bring it. I actually have only heard a few of the tracks, so Ill still cop it. Quit hatin people, these people are trying to do good in a watered down hip hop world and you guys are hatin cuz one guy got taken off.
Cant even front, im waiting for the free download link.
Ski said that he couldn’t clear Mos Def thru the label so blame that shit on the record labels not Ski. If there’s only 11 tracks though he should have made them all unleaked tracks. This is like Curren$y’s Pilot Talk all over again. Not that it wasnt a good album, just that almost all of the tracks had been leaked.
I am probably going to cop solely on that fact that Ski is dope and gives out hella free shit for us to listen to.
@GOD
That’s the thing though….he never really gave us anything free, every track that leaked was leaked unintentionally or ripped from their videos. Even though it was Mos’ label’s fault, he was a main player in this album. If they put it out for free like they originally planned it could’ve been bigger (mixtapes as of late have opened a lot of doors for artist and producers the past 3 years), but I feel like they got greedy.
Is it just me or is the album art (The red part) EXACTLY like curren$y’s album art (Tracklist and what not) for Pilot Talk but red ? No hate i dig Ski beat’s but this looks a little more like Pilot Talk pt 2 for the most part. If it is a free release I would say it’s gonna be one of the more solid freebee’s as of late
I don’t care what anyone says, I been waiting for that Curren$y /Jim Jones track since the very first creative control video dropped. And I hate Jim Jones. But other than that 1 other remaining Curren$y track not on my ipod (one with Jim Jones and Take Off To Landing with Curtains (who?)) you’re right, I don’t give a shit about this delayed as fuck mixtape. Remeber when creative control was relevant? They should be like 5 or 6 albums/mixtapes in by now. Damn Dame. You fucked up something that could have been one of the dopest things to happen to downloaded music. Now you’re on the list of too little too lates with Slaughterhouse and TiRon (sorry Ronnie).
how the HELL can he take off Taxi? gotta be sample clearance issues.
Why wasn’t this just a free tape to begin with?? I mean this was supposed to be released on March 31.. It’s been like a whole equinox of delays. How am I supposed to be enthused to pay for something like this. Especially with the best TWO tracks not on it(Taxi, Aerials).. I’ll pass, but still a Ski fan nevertheless. NC stand up !
We’ll see. That artwork is nice though.
Where is this interview with Ski everyone is talking about? Can we get a link??
God damn it’s still going to be a good CD calm your ass down.
What the fuck? No Prowler 2?
No point in even putting anything out without Mos. Not even worth a download.
Aerials was such a solid track, and now it’s not on there, as well as cream of the planet. I wanted a finished taxi so badly too. Very sad…

that is exactly how I feel.
No Mos No Buy, Taxi was the dopest record on that record but it was probably due to some fake ass record label shit
No cream of the planet? What a let down, old songs = not coppin
yea thats fucked the mos songs aint gon be on there but its ahold still be pretty dope but i have herd almost every song
Ehh.. what ever… WHERES MOS!?
hahahaha
ill download the other tracks seperately I guess
that Curtains (CurT@!n$) and Curren$y song isnt listed on Amazon!
suck shakes dick you dumbasses and build your own opinion
theyre either saving those tracks or they got into an argument that would suck
at least when i buy the album ill have all of the songs but i wont have take off to landing with curtains that cut looks good
hmmm pretty wack…. half a year later they drop this. definitely a download.
jus add the fuckin mos songs to the playlist, put it on ya ipod n shut the fuck up!
Yo, No Mos, it sucks, but hey, Label politics suck. Thats the way it goes. But yo, this band is sick. Curren$y is nasty, and most of all the bass player (Brady Watt) is insane!!!! You gotta respect a lot of the grooves they are laying down here. absolutely nasty
