So, Q-tip or is it still Kamaal the abstract, is coming out with an album this November.  Word on the street is its supposed to be hot.  Well, I’ll reserve my comments until after I hear it; hip hop hasn’t really moved me in a long time.  But the unofficial first single, “gettin up” is promising.   Check out the video compiled form “rock the Bells” tour footage.
