On the greatest day of the year (November 3rd), CunninLynguists will be unleashing volume two of their Strange Journey. Featuring the likes of Tonedeff, Substantial, Freddie Gibbs, Sean Price, Evidence, E-40, etc. Over the amazing production abilities of the criminally slept on KNO, J-Zone and Blue Sky Black Death. Hit the jump for the tracklist and check out Amazon for the snippets.

I’ve actually been spinning this album in it’s entirety for the past 2-3 weeks (one of the perks with running one of the most successful sites on the internets) and I can say it’s definitely something serious! Amazon threw up some snippets so I figured I’d link ya’ll (click the image above). September 29th is the date!

We posted the single featuring Carlitta Durand back in July, now it’s time for a sampler of Nicolay’s upcoming solo effort (which drops September 15th). Hit the jump for the order of the snippets.

Just like Raekwon, Trey Songz & M.O.P.; Amazon comes through with snippets of KiD CuDi’s upcoming album, which is scheduled to drop September 15th. UPDATE: CuDi’s fanboys came through with some higher quality snippets (for download).

I guess it’s snippets day at the dopehouse huh? Raekwon, Trey Songz and now the Mash Out Posse? Dope… shouts to Robbie on the discovery.

If you follow the Soothing Sessions, it’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of Trey Songz’ music. He’s dropping his new album, Ready, on September 1st. The artwork and tracklist have already been released but since Amazon came through with snippets I figured I’d make a new post. Hit the jump…

Amazon recently put up the album sampler for Raekwon’s upcoming album and from 3 listens this shit sounds pretty good! Can’t wait to check the full thing. Shouts to Ice on the heads up.

Before I get into this, I have to apologize for my absence. I didn’t have access to the internet for the last few. Which came at a good/bad time as I’ve been going through a few personal issues and needed the short break. Shouts to Meka for holding it down. Aight… enough sappy shit. We gave you the Slaughterhouse album snippets below, now we’ve got the snippets for Joe Budden’s upcoming digital EP that drops next Tuesday on AmalgamDigital. Unlike the CDQ/30sec snippets in the Slaughterhouse post, this is recorded from JBTV and features live commentary and jibber jabber from Joey and others. You can still get an idea of what to expect.

Here’s something nice for a Saturday, snippets for the new rap Fantastic Four album. Applaud this guy (and also Crooked I’s Twitter for giving the heads up) for finally providing something worthwhile in my inbox for a change. Tracklist under the cut.

I laced ya’ll with the Mos Def snippets yesterday, now here’s 30 second clips of the upcoming J Dilla album. I’ve given this three listens so far and it’s safe to say we’re in for a treat. Some of these beats are just nutty (as expected)! Definitely making a purchase next week (June 2nd). Hit the jump for the artwork and tracklist to follow along…

Wow, I just checked in after a pretty wild Halloween weekend and my inbox is full of good shit. First off, we got some snippets of every track off Crooked I’s Block Obama II, which drops Tuesday! Also, check the bonus… Trey-C and Crooked I collab on a pretty fresh joint. Although it’s not the one I was talking about a couple months back.
